The Numbers Game

Well, I missed Wordless Wednesday, but that's okay, we can bounce back right! Maybe Wordless Friday will make up for it.....

Anywho, it's time for the quick, bite-sized digestible factoid statistics everyone loves:
Breakdown of numbers of things in relation to random (and often newsworthy) stuff.

1,053.............Articles on Google News 1 hr after Microsoft "Bing"
242,666.........Views in one day of the "New Moon" vid on YouTube
2,379..............Pages in the books of Meyer's Vampire series
34...................Percentage of decrease in PC Sales
1.....................Shows remaining for Tonight Show host Jay Leno
0.....................Times I will watch Conan O'Brien when he takes over
0.4..................Micrograms of Cocaine in German "Red Bull Cola"
30 Million......Xbox 360's sold (took them long enough)
900 Million...Mel Gibson's estimated value (REALLY?!?)
450 Million...Amount Mel will probably fork over in the divorce

And for one last random number....... do you know how many golf balls can fit into a 747? Well I was asked this question at a job interview one time, and I had NO CLUE. So suffice it to say, I found out. The number is 3,287,519. I'll never forget it, and now you too have this otherwise totally useless information. Enjoy... and PLEASE COMMENT WITH YOUR OWN NUMBERS!!
