Book of Odds

The "Book of Odds" describes itself as "the missing dictionary, one filled not with words, but with numbers – the odds of everyday life."

Here are some of the random things I found out on their website today:

1 in 31.52 - The odds an NFL pass will be intercepted.

1 in 16 - The odds a person 16 years or older is unemployed

1 in 3.46 - The odds an adult in a city sleeps less than 6 hours a night

1 in 1.64 - The odds an adult usually eats breakfast

The site is vast and allows you to sign up for greater access and even allows you to suggest topics for them to investigate the relevant odds statements.
