It's certainly an old enough joke to count as a classic.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Brilliant! I tip my hat to you, sir! 
According to my calculations, I should be able to retire about 5 years after I die.

I parked next to a Mustang in the UK two weeks ago, left hand drive, very nice looking car.
A large black woman came out of the shop, got behind the wheel, and sped off at quite a speed.
It must have had a fair bit of power to make her considerable baulk move at that speed.

Some have asked where OG has been recently. I believe he had claimed his internet would be offline for a couple of weeks, however, I noticed this news article today:
Kim Jong Un missing?[^]
Could it be that OG is Kim Jong Un? Or perhaps a sniper assassin?
Too much of a coincidence to just ignore this.

For conspirator theorist here is another possibility.

Of course I don't know what OG would be doing in Idaho but one never knows?

That does seem more likely.

Last I heard, OG and P'OH where kung fu fightin' on a mountain top during a thunderstorm.

Oh, I don't miss him. No way. I'm taking advantage of his leave of absence to gain on his point total. I'm getting close. 2 more weeks gone and I might just overtake him.

If you miss someone on-line, there's nothing to stop you hitting F5.
If you miss someone in real life, lack of bullets can stop you reloading.

In this case "missing" is an adjective not a verb.

Not sure if this is the right place: not a programing question but if it should be somewhere else I'll happily move it.
So, been asked to find out about new membership uptakes on service based web sites (LifeLock or eHarmony, for instance). In other words how many new members would you expect to gain in the first year? Marketing effort would, no doubt, have an impact on the numbers but is there anywhere I can look up some numbers? My google-fu has been letting me down on this one.
Thanks.

Ah, you need to re-focus your Chi and harness the powers within. Only then will you find the answer you seek.

I don't think you are going to be able to google this as it is very different between companies, and also very private information.
Your best bet would probably be to use a heuristic approach and produce upper and lower estimates.
