First Steps

So I have finally decided to start a blog! As yet I'm not sure of the direction this is going to take, so we'll see how it goes.

I've called it Statistical Anomaly mainly for the reason that I enjoy (yes, enjoy) mathematics and statistical analysis. The name came to me during half-sleep in the middle of last night so hopefully I'll find it as pleasing in the coming weeks, months, etc as I do now.

I've never been one for diaries, so I'll probably post on a variety of topics with a bit of the everyday stuff thrown in. Hopefully it'll be interesting enough to hold your (and my) attention!

To finish off my first blog I'll share a comment from the latest
Answer Me This! podcast on the topic of emotions that made me laugh:

"But if we didn't have emotions what would we do? We'd
probably just sit around all day doing maths."

  1. I had no idea you were a fellow statistics geek!

    Pity you're going to move to NZ about the time we manage to move to Scotland, but the internet makes it so much easier than the $2 a minute phonecalls my parents had to deal with.

  2. Yes, I even have a degree to prove it now! :)

    We're planning to make great use of Skype which should save us from massive phone bills now that my parents have been trained!
