STATS
-The average per capita income in Iraq in 2004 was $422, up from $322 in 2003. (Time)
Maybe that's why the MSM is so down on the Iraqis, they make more money than the average journalist.
-Sales of plus-size clothing for women rose by 13.2% last year, while sales of all women's clothing increased by just 5.6%
I'm not touching that one.
-Merv Griffin estimates that he made "close to $70-80 million" in royalties from the Jeopardy theme song. He wrote the tune in less than a minute (NYT)
I hardly took him any longer to write the song than the actual playtime of the song. (30 seconds)
