I think this is what no one understands that if:
8% or maybe 16% default then 100% default
If this is confusing ok.....but assume the other side of the bet does not know?

Is this another one of those posts that shows all of us to be really stupid because we have no idea what you are talking about? I look at:
Say what?
If subsequent add-ons were intended to clarify the point, they failed, at least with me.
At some point we all want to beat the crap out of Charley Brown for being so stupid as to let Lucy once more trick him. My plan is to not try to kick this particular football.

sour grapes
math majors are happy people
they can keep a messy desk, keep a house full of unfinisheds projects and unread books
they save money on wardrobe, cars, and even barbers and hairdressers!!!
they can be themselves well into old age, while normal people can only wear blue hair and balck mascara until the age of 25

Not THIS chemist!
Those high school Tuesday and Thursday afternoons when the b-ball away game road trips had me missing algebra and geometry classes......
How I ever got thru p-chem was a miracle (Thank you Mr. Bellcurve!)

If math doesn't solve your problem, you're not using enough.

I asked a friend:
"if * doesn't solve your problem you are not using enough". What do you think * is?
Her guess was: viagra
