If somebody dropped something in a tiny place you could go get it. people could think you were .42 invisible, and you could be in a World Record book. People could be sorry for you and give you money!Haley M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11508134837048673780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651489704499526558.post-24603097077637685082009-02-15T14:16:00.000-08:002009-02-15T14:16:00.000-08:00You can have 2.58 in a family when there a two adu...You can have 2.58 in a family when there a two adults and 58percent of an adult but it is still a kid.Emily W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01546972413710485753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651489704499526558.post-34350936064808146142009-02-12T18:38:00.000-08:002009-02-12T18:38:00.000-08:00Also, grades on our report cards are actually the ...Also, grades on our report cards are actually the AVERAGE of our pointsDevon G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04546573599728954888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651489704499526558.post-40287008997753063832009-02-12T18:36:00.000-08:002009-02-12T18:36:00.000-08:00I agree competely on the .58 brain thing that Ben ...I agree competely on the .58 brain thing that Ben posted.

They find the average amounts of points someone scores in a game. Schools also use these. They track the average amount of kids in a classroom or the average scores on our Aims test. Stores also use averages. You have seen the commercials where they say "our buisness costs 40% less than the AVERAGE one. That is why you should shop here." There are about 100000 other times they use it also.Ben A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16787772933729210578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651489704499526558.post-52194517941218521322009-02-12T16:58:00.000-08:002009-02-12T16:58:00.000-08:00Some reasons why being .58 could be helpful is lik...Some reasons why being .58 could be helpful is like when you play hide and seek, you would be able to fit into smaller places. It would also help only having one eye. You would never have to close one and look goofy whenever you want to focus on something. Plus, you would probably win long jump having so much practice hopping around all of the time. Those are the only reasons why I would rather be .58.Ben A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16787772933729210578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651489704499526558.post-9590029666813694792009-02-12T16:52:00.000-08:002009-02-12T16:52:00.000-08:00I would rather be a whole because if I wasn't, I w...I would rather be a whole because if I wasn't, I would not be able to play all the sports that I love. It would be extremely difficult to play basketball, as it would be to swing a bat in baseball, and it would hurt to not have a glove in baseball. It would also mean I would only have .58 % of my brain and I would not think of nearly as many great ideas as I do now. That is why I would rather be a whole.Ben A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16787772933729210578noreply@blogger.com
