Never Tell Me The Odds

Man. The easy night I was talking about before did turn out easy, but last night didn’t. All those possible malfunctions happened and made it a long night. I got home late, woke up late and now I have to go to work in like twenty minutes. I still hate my job, for the record.

Back on the short night however, I noticed that one of the flyers we were putting into the newspaper had a scratch and win contest in which one could supposedly win an Ipod. However a reading of the fine print said something like “Odds of winning Ipod 1 in 96,273″ or something like that. But the flyer was only booked to go into 11,000 newspapers. I don’t think anyone is winning that Ipod. I think they’re just trying to get people’s hopes up. Advertising = Trickery!
