It's that time of year again . . . March Madness!!
Stats from the front page of yesterday's Rocky Mountain News . . .
There are 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 total number of ways to fill out a bracket.
Odds of a perfect bracket? 9.2 quintillion-to-1.
30 million Americans will participate in office pools this year.
$1.2 billion - How much U.S. employers will lose in productivity during the tourney.
About Me
- Wheels
- Golden, Colorado, United States
- A happily married thirty-something, T4 Paraplegic, with two great sons, 2 dogs, a cat and some fish who has random, and sometimes deep, thoughts about life, love and the pursuit of happiness. (My wife wanted me to point out that it was I who has these deep thoughts about life, love and the pursuit of happiness . . . not the fish!)

March madness is my favorite sporting event ever. My wife dreads it when it comes because it is non-stop basketball for 3 weekends.
I still have to make my picks, but my pesky work just gets in the way.
Totally . . . I was the worst teacher today. I showed the kids Flushed Away (recent animated movie . . . very funny!) and worked on my "picks". Those darn CSAP tests ruin the day anyway.
Lot's of reading and research, and two hours later my final four is 3 #1 seeds and a #2. You know that aint happening!
Back to the drawing board . . . if I can find any time tonight.
