. . . correlation is not causality.

hadnt heard that before

lotsa cause and effect

he heard his Maw say I have 58 things to do. whenever he asked her for her time  I haven’t time, dear.

hes been thinking since she died  Why 58 things

                                                      Why not I’m busy right now. Maybe later.
Maybe later  meant no maybe

    he let it slideforgot what he wanted to talk to her about anyway 

sometimes lost of memory that afflicts older people or people whose minds are too packed with the labors of life living cant see straight are legit were legit for him to forget move along onto the next I have 58 things to do.


his father bought her a brandnew ’58 pink convertible Cadillac
                                                                    wicked fins  what a boat
donned her pillbox hat 

attended Ladies Tea Saturday afternoons at the Country Club

                                                                   ‘58 things to do  her mind blissfully there

his little sister  last of five children

                                       ‘58
five children in eight years
                              that

or that his little sister  baby    never grewup
                                                  believed that being baby bestowed her special treatment privileges  bestowed sobbinghowling at the top of her lungs  whatever she wanted

    his mother always relented

never once cracked her on the ass with a wooden spoon

                                                              little cunt

tilted his head to one side  bird in the grass listening for bugs worms
                                                                              Who was the little cunt

I have 58 things to do.

he may be pissed

                            he was never one of them

White Stripes  Effect and Cause  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STSkGSTMr9Y


(1) Are we forgetting about any variables Z that affect both X and Y? (Omitted variables)

(2) Is Y causing X rather than X causing Y? (Reverse causality)

(3) Who is missing? (Sample selection)

(4) How easy is it to measure X and Y? (Measurement error)
