This psychic chart says that I will buy a new laptop in the 3rd week of March after a tax rebate.  It predicts I will be happy and not worry about maintaining a terminal-Tinkerbell.

Excel spreadsheet says buy a laptop

It’s amazing how clever Excel is at telling us the way things will be. 

I call it the ‘Excel Oracle Effect” (eOe).   Excel has predicted that I will be using it to solve 73% of the tricky questions in my life.  The first 9% of these will be covered in the next project:  a ‘boyfriend application generation and classification’ chart.  

Pie chart or Scattergram?  What do you think?

    That’s so sad… I believe in Tinkerbell. How old is she now?

    Oo, Ooo, oo. Piechart!!! so visually satisfying.

    Nooo, wait, Scattergram, because then I can see the data points.

    Oh, I miss data. Law can be so boring somedays. Not like watching a gelatin solidify or watching DNA separate in the gel. Aaah, data.

    I love it! Excel definitely needs a “magic 8-ball” type of function.
