What are the odds?

The news has been really amazing lately! No - strike that - UNBELIEVABLE is a much better word. I'm not talking about the election (p.s vote Nov 4th) or the weather or even the out of control fires in Southern Cali. Nope, there's even more in the world to be shocked at.

A few days ago, I read on CNN.com that there was a 105 year old women in England. No shes not dead. Shes quite healthy and vibrant actually. WoW, you say! Hold that thought: did I mention shes 105 and a virgin? An unpopped cherry, an unscrewed cork, a 'cat' that hasn't been scratched if you get my heavy drift. She actually credits her remarkable age and vitality to her celibacy saying she 'just never had time to deal with a relationship'. What were you doing, curing cancer? She said that around the age of 12 she decided she was NOT going to get married and back in her day (many many many days ago) women didn't have sex without being married. Thank gosh were over that inconvenience. So since then she has been keeping busy with the usual things people do when they are avoiding sex like the black plague (which she also was around for):

1. Serving in the Egyptian Army during WWII
2. Working as a secretary
3. Working as a housekeeper
4. Denying rumors your a homosexual and that's why your not married {before it was 'allowed' by Prop 8 (so far)}
5. Mowing your lawn until the age of 90 ( nah not that lawn, shes a virgin remember!)

All curiosity aside, I do wonder how she went so long without even a hint of the male wonderment. Did she not get lonely? Sad? Horny? Maybe she just never needed a little handy work around the house...

To fast forward, to something a little more, 2008-like: A 22-year old woman and her (now o-shit o-shit o-shit) 28-year old fiance just had beautiful, healthy identical triplets. Oh how wonderful, you say. Hold that thought: She has consistently been on Birth Control, the Pill, and was actually using it at the time of conception. The medical miracle of a woman getting pregnant while on the Pill is an astounding 1 to 2%, giving a small error margin for various 'Pill' variables; that's 2 out of every 100 women. However, the odds of having identical triplets...priceless. 200 million to 1 to be exact. Those are Michael Phelps swimmers her fiance had going there. I think something that remarkable has to be fate. An interesting way to carry it through, but fate nonetheless. Couples often try and try and try and cant make it happen, and here comes triplets for a couple that was actually trying to responsibly prevent it. Ironic. That's how life works. Still, every happiness to them.

Maybe the virgin can babysit...we know shes not getting any
