Carpe Diem Ad Muertum
Sieze the day, to the death. There is no potential that shall be passed by, there is no piece of glory to fall by the wayside, there is no soul to left unsaved by the brilliance of language. As writers, we are gods.
Randomosity- Monkey Throwing
Today is a day for randomosity. It's Friday (well, not anymore), my English teacher didn't show up at school, I watched videos in biology, and I haven't P'd anyone O.

So today is random. Theoretically, if one were to... if one were to throw six monkeys up in the air for a very long time, then... then, logically, they would land on their tails as often as they would land on their... heads?

Actually, this is not true. The aerodynamics and physiology of monkeys is such that were one to throw these hypothetical six monkeys in the air as many times a possible, it would happen that they would most often land on their feet; that is, of course, given that they are experience no imposed physical bonds. Their tails, being on the same plane as their heads, by which I mean that plane along the spinal cord, would actually have a rather high chance of landing simultaneously with their heads. However, this would be an infrequent case, as monkeys enjoy staying upright and would do their best to land on their feet or butts (which may constitute a 'tails' result). Unfortunately, there would be a rare result of heads, assuming all the monkeys are alive upon tossing and that no monkeys are replaced; in fact, there would only be six 'heads' results, because their skulls would cave or their necks would snap in one way or another.

Guildenstern, it's a good thing you and Rosencrantz are dead already, because I just killed your theory.
