Another example of how headlines (including ads and commercials) can deceive using percentages and statistics... I always used to enjoy the various graphs and charts in Playboy... even got a A for using them in my undergrad Statistics course!

I'll be OK if your prediction earlier this week comes true!

So how are your balls feeling?

Indeed... but I had another term in mind.

Hope you have intelligent and accurate balls!

I still prefer: Funked Up Data which then creates Fear, Uncertainty, and, Doubt. The above graphs are a perfect example. People will look at that and be drawn to 64% after THAT short period in time, without taking the starting percentage into consideration.... when you do that, it's actually...
