Birth: October compared to the whole year
My sister, Niner, was at a hospital website, comparing whether there were more boys or girls born in a year. (She was doing a paper for her statistics class.) And in the Octobers of 2007 and 2008 both, more girl babies were born than boy babies, but overall, each year, more boys were born.
This does not mean that there are more boys than girls in the world. Though, it might mean that there are more boys in our town. Although it sure doesn’t seem that way.
Maybe I’ll do some studying myself. If I do, I’ll tell you my results. If you do some studying of your own, then please tell me your results in a comment to this post.

Gas prices soar: Here’s how to solve that
You’re driving along and you realize that your car is low on gas, so you stop in at the first gas station that you see. Gas around $4 per gallon. Ten years ago you (or you parents) could have bought gas for a little under $1.50.
This is the problem that a lot of places in the U.S.A. are having. I think it’s time for somebody to get us out of this. Gas is money, and money is not gas. I’ll explain to you why this is: Gas costs money (too much if you ask me), but you can’t use money as gas.
We should make cars that run on cheap, useless, unliked things—something like school books. (Nasty little buggers they are.)

Tons of girls
Have you ever heard There are twice as many girls as boys? Well to me it seems true, because in my co-op and our last church there were less boys than girls. For instance there are three girls zero boys in my Sewing class (Small class, huh?), and only two boys with several girls in Drama. At our old church there were usually only two or three boys in a lake of girls. I’d almost wish that my first baby was a boy so that they wouldn’t go extinct.

Funny but dangerous
Cats and dogs gone wild is a great show. Funny, but not too safe for humans, especially one little kid. The cats and dogs in it have really gone wild, and I hope you like it as much as Chickenfoot and I did .
