as promised

I am currently sitting in my office trying to convince myself to continue reading my statistics text book. snooze. I've already ready about 40 pages AND sat in on the lower level statistics class that I TA so my brain is on stats overload. Fine. Before I move on to my next task, I wanted to share with you the awesome things my awesome statistics teacher said at my awesome first class. Note: This may be the only time I have refer to statistics class as awesome. But, it was truly an inspiring and motivational class. Who knew that was possible where math was concerned?

"Statistics are a gift from God!"

"Statistics are like bikinis. What they reveal is interesting, but what they conceal is vital."

"You're going to look mahvalous dahling. And it is better to look good than feel good." (In reference to how we will look when we understand statistics)

"Move towards the stuff you don't know and attack it . . . or caress it."

"SPSS. It's sassy!"

SPSS is not sassy, but your professor is funny.
