Doctors vs Guns
Doctors:
(A) The number of doctors in the U.S. is 700,000
(B) Accidental deaths caused by physicians per year
are 120,000
(C) Accidental deaths per physician is 17.14%

Services

Guns:
(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000
(yes that's 80 million)
(B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all
age groups, is 1,500
(C) The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is
0.001875%

************************************************************
So statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000
times more dangerous than gun owners.
************************************************************
Remember, guns don't kill people, doctors do.
************************************************************
FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS
AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.
************************************************************
Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We
must ban doctors before this gets completely out of
hand!

statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause
people to panic and seek medical attention.)
OK BB. Now that was scary.... I think I need a hug.

That's not funny... that's disturbing. What kind of chuckle was that?!?!
Ewwww.... scary! Here's another one my friend found:
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:
What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever
wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?
Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer
these questions:
If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25
26.
Then:
H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
and
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12 +5+4+7+5 = 96%
But,
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
and
B-U-L-L-$-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%
AND, look how far a$$ kissing will take you.
A-$-$-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%
So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hard
Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bull$hit and A$$ kissing that will put you over the top!
