Birthday problem extension- It is known that if you have 23 people in a room, there is greater than a 50% chance two people have the same birthday. I was at a party with 10 babies, 3 of them were born on the same date (day, month and year). What are the odds?

For those of you who have never been. This is a classic example of a "Midwestern standoff" facebook.com/share/r/kRF4rK…

When you have leftover crab 1. Spend way too long extracting the limited meat (and cutting up your fingers in the process) 2. Make crab cakes with a homemade tarter sauce.

My son is current into giant connect the dot puzzles. I have this very vague recollection of a #mtbos-like game, where two people start with a line and then take turns... drawing dots/curved lines? something about midpoints? Anybody know what i'm thinking of?

I'm usually on team comfort and practical vs team pretty and Instagramable. But I gotta say, I feel like my spice drawer excels at both.

I really don't like either of these teams (LSU-USC) but now that USC is in the Big10 (18?), I guess I'm obligated to root for them?

Morals, standards and awareness of "issues" change over time. I'm no historian, but I assume this is why the constitution was designed as a "living document." When we realize the error of our ways, or technology evolves, we should be able to adjust accordingly.

I don't use Twitter Lists, but every once in a while I get a kick out of checking what lists people have added me to. These are my current favorites. What are the "best" lists that you're in?

My 9yo is self conscious about his body. We did the patenting part of supporting him & sharing what features we were (are) self-conscious about... but he knows I'm full of shit and doesn't believe me. What were you self-conscious of as a kid, and (when) did you get past it?

To recap, the GOP perpetually wants to cut social security & raise the retirement age... While also claiming that child care should be provided by grandma.
