What social group would you put yourself in? And what group would you put me in (at a guess)?
I'd love to know what social group you would place yourself in... since you are the only person who knows your true personality.
As for me...
Interests: Science Fiction, Mysteries, Ancient Civilizations, Computer Games = Geek?
Dress-code: Mostly Jeans/Khaki pants & Skelanimal T-shirts are my fave! But I also love the preppy look, my cupboard is about 50/50 on this one = Rock Girl/Preppy?
Favourite place to hang out: a bar/pizza parlour called The Mystic Boer. It is the place where all the Goths, Rockers, Emo's etc hang out. = Rock Girl?
Personality: Loves being out with people, can be extrovert when I'm out and about, but when I'm at home I like my personal space and don't like people getting into my personal space. = No Idea 
So where would you place me? And where do you place yourself (and why do you place yourself there?)
I fit the best into Rock Girl with a touch of Geek and Prep.... I'm not an Emo, Punk or Goth though.
well from what i've read u'd prob be the metal side of things as for where i'd put me i just like doin my own thing erm prob best suited to metaller groups aswell love me metal and punk i'd consider meself free spirited i'd talk to anyone or else i'd be quiet or if sum1 spoke to me i'd speak back but as for the geek bit i'd be the same love video games but a lot of ppl do. as for hangin out pubs or else cafe's. i'lll be honest with ya thou at moment i'm tired of meeting a-holes seem tt be loads out there so i'm more keeping to myself these days i'll leave this one up to you see where u'd class me

Statistics and the Numbers of Baseball
Everyone knows there are certain things that simply do not go together: oil and water, fire and ice, nerds and jocks. However, an interesting trend is developing in cross-cultural enjoyment. More jocks than ever have been working Sudoku puzzles as a way of empowering and perfecting their critical thinking skills. While it seems unusual to see a mathematic puzzle in a baseball dugout something even more unusual is in the stands. Scores of nerds (engineers, accountants, computer geeks) now fill baseball's box seats. The reason for the attraction to poindexters everywhere may be that baseball, more than any other sport, celebrates and glorifies numbers.
The records
One of the things that keeps baseball fans coming back, tuning in and going to the stadium is to watch records be made and broken. It's interesting to know the top record holders in each category and watch their achievement pursued. Look up a baseball record sheet on the Web and you may be spending a long time running down list of everything from most hits by a left-hander in a single-season to the highest number of steals from a pitcher. Watching somebody approach and take a record is an exciting visceral experience, as we hold out hope to see a record challenged. Currently, baseball fans are fixated on whether or not Barry bonds can beat Hank Aaron's 755 homerun mark. Nerds, who love memorizing and categorizing numbers, find themselves right at home watching records stand and predicting their fall.
Statistics
Of course, you don't have to wait for a major record to be broken to get excited about numbers in baseball. Every single game, every single player, and every single pitch has been placed in categories for you. Listening to the baseball announcer is a lot like listening to a very excited math professor most of the time. They tell you batting percentages, pitching averages, field lengths and times at bat. Many baseball parks offer free scorecards to fans so that they can track the pitches and hits themselves. Statistics are attractive in baseball, because they help remind us that beyond the sport there is a science. Baseball is made of angles and force, physics and math. Now who wouldn't want to go out on a sunny afternoon and watch all that?
Money
Unfortunately, the things that make you can also be the things that break you. Another set of numbers has become prominent in baseball that doesn't add so much to the joy of the game. That would be salaries, trade-offs, endorsements and other things involved with money. While sports are fun to watch, somebody must pay the athletes to do it. And when money changes hands in amount that it does in baseball it's bound to have an effect on what goes on the field. When a batter is averaging .125 and he is getting paid $1.8 million to do it suddenly every missed pitch seems like a stab to the wallet as well as the heart.
Overall, baseball has been America's pastime for a long time and that it will probably continue long into the future. However, when you look around at the crowds of folks who attend the games don't be surprised to see people with laptops, glasses and polo shirts. The nerds are drawn to numbers and they are here to stay.
