Hah, I just heard some Hispanics out my window rocking out to Coldplay "Viva la Vida"

Um, and that sounded like five gun shots. Note: 1:19 AM.

Make a note to check the Post tomorrow.

Drunk and bored. I have energy so watching tv is hard.

Every so often I get an awful, makes you want to die cramp in my left earlobe.

How the hell do you get a cramp in your earlobe?

by **jerseyhoya** » Mon May 11, 2009 16:12:57

My mind now automatically transitions from the word poop to "bhaha refugees"

Stay off it for awhile, perhaps a sling.

Every once in awhile I get a nasty cramp on the bottom of my left foot that has me inventing new swear words.

Are you sure you don't have a crab attached to it?

That's what does it for me.

Having one month to plan a bachelorette party really sucks. Especially when the bride has no idea where she wants to go.

"Image Poop" would be a horrible name for a rock band

In other news, what's the best chart to show specific mainifestations of the 80/20 rule?

And what is a good powerpoint way to depict "not necessarily equal to"

i.e.

SQUARE = QUADRILATERAL
QUADRILATERAL <not> SQUARE

Let's say you have two columns. Column A is Customer - ranging from # 1 to 100. Column B is Revenue from customer and you've sorted it such that Customer 1 is the one with the most revenue, Customer 100 the one with the least. Make a Column C called Cumulative Revenue. For customer 1, this is 0 + his revenue (cell B1). For customer 2, it's cell C1+B2, Customer 3, cell C2+B3 and so on. Then make a column D where you do % Cum Revenue which simply is each cell in Column C divided by Total Revenue

Now, graph this with Column A as the horizontal Axis and Column D as Vertical Axis. Bring it into powerpoint and you have a chart I've wowed customers with.

thanks....trying to think how to apply my data to this....using those same fields, the values I have to work with are like this:

10% of the revenue supplied by 0% (6) customers
20% of the revenue supplied by 10% (21) customers
.
.
80% of the revenue supplied by 16% (346) customers
90% of the revenue supplied by 26% (558) customers
100% of the revenue supplied by 69% (1468) of the customers

(And yes, in my context it is feasible that 31% of the customers are werthless)

by **Bucky** » Mon May 11, 2009 21:49:13

I think it's a histogram....Y axis % of revenue....x axis % of customers?

by **Bucky** » Mon May 11, 2009 21:49:55

But I still want to figure out the "wow" chart.....

Does anyone do TransitChek? Is it worth bothering with if I only use around 25 tokens a month?
