Go from the beginning I feel that I sneeze a lot. I saw a programme around this time last year which mentioned someone who has been keeping a sneeze diary for a number of years. Considering that I was stuck in the house for the forseeable, I thought I'd start a sneeze diary. It might even come in handy when I go back to the docs trying to get an appointment with an ENT consultant concerning my fucked up septum [insert DW image here]. So, for a year, I have recorded the day, date, time, location, and number of sneezes in each sneezing episode. I am now at the stage where I can start analysis.

I have sneezed 1953 times in the last year. I sneeze, on average, 163 times a month, 38 times a week, 5 times a day. Eyeballing the data, I sneeze more in the winter months (191, 193, 162) , and less in the summer months (171, 141, 132) . I'll need to consider the statistics for relevance here. My main locations of sneezing are my desk (395 episodes), couch (189 episodes), bedroom (132 episodes), and kitchen (112 episodes). I'm certain that my sneezes are not location dependent, this is just where my time is spent. On average, I sneeze twice during each episode. Maximum 7 times - which happened once. The higher volume sneezing fits may be connected to being in the kitchen. Statistics required...

mathematics Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I'm going to consider the stats on: Time series on the week - am I constant throughout the week, or is there a weekly pattern? Are higher volume episodes related to a location? Are sneezes constant throughout the day? Are there any weather features which might be affecting ym sneezes? Summer pollen seems to be irrelevant at first glance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathematics Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays are well above average sneezing days. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are spot on average sneezing days. Saturdays and Sundays are well below average sneezing days. I wonder if this is just an aritfact of reporting... or is work making me sneeze? Best I avoid it, just to make sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

third lanark Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 On 06/04/2020 at 19:18, Silverton End said: Halfway through series 2 of The Shield but opted for Sergio Leone's "dollars trilogy" today, although they're not strictly a trilogy, as Van Cleef is a good guy until he re-appears as Angel Eyes in the 3rd movie. A Fistful of Dollars, pretty raw with plenty violence. A Few Dollars More, decent but not outstanding. The Good, The Bad & The Ugly, a polished masterpiece. Back to the gardening tomorrow & get the dead moss raked out. I had to point out to someone on here before that Van Cleef plays 2 totally different characters in For a Few Dollars More and The Good, the bad and the ugly. Technically the good the bad and the ugly is a prequel as it is set before the other 2. I like all 3 films but For a Few Dollars More is probably my favourite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
