I was listening to NPR this afternoon as I was driving home from work and there was a report on how there has been a decrease in births in America in the past 6 months. Understandable, considering the economy and such.
What made me smile was that New Orleans, unlike the rest of the nation, has been experiencing a recent baby boom. If you do the math, which NPR has done, you will notice a particular conception date - January 24. That means that all the celebrating that was going on when the Saints won the NFC Championship involved a lot of celebrating in *ahem* other ways, too.
The report closed with noting that the increase in births will continue over the next two months. More math = lots more celebrating on that lovely Super Bowl Sunday!
I wonder how many babies will be named Drew or Reggie?
