Very interesting stats. I had no idea! Thanks for the morning education! Make it a great day!

Betina

Crazy how quickly we have grown. Now it's almost incremental. Just nutty.

Thanks Betina!

I agree Larry...kinda scary, right!

Kris, in the words of Mick Jagger, 'they go up, up, up, up, up!'

Hi Kristin:

That's some interesting stuff!

This post can falling under the "did you know" category...

Hey, Kristin. Wow, you certainly have the census down to a science. Great stats. Thanks and have a great weekend, Jim

Kristin

Cool, you are the statistic Queen buddy.Have fun in Sussex.

Hi Kristin!

Thanks for the overview. Will the census address some burning questions I have always wanted to know about America:

--How many pizzas are in each freezer per household?

--How many cell phones per household?

--How many vehicles are owned per household?

You are DA lady, Kristin. What do you think?

ps-I plan to mail our info in to save money for the feds(hopefully postage is provided.) ^_~

Toula, is that another group?

Thanks Jim...you do the same!

Tom, know YOU are the stats/summary KING!!

Bruce, you are funny! I would love to know some of those answers too...as for my household answers to your questions 1, 2, 3 (if you count a harley too)
