Three statisticians go deer hunting with bows and arrows. They spot a big buck and take aim. One shoots and his arrow flies off three metres to the right. The second shoots and his arrow flies off three metres to the left. There are lies, damn lies, and statistics.
Statistics are like a bikini.
What they reveal is suggestive, but what they conceal is vital. They find accounting too exciting. Being a statistician means never having to say you're certain. A Statistician is someone who can draw a mathematically exact line from an unwarranted assumption to a foregone conclusion.
