Hello all you Correlationers!
In difficult times, it's always nice to have a well balanced breakfast and snuggle up to watch some comfort programming. For us, sometimes it's a classic English breakfast with eggs, sausage, beans, tomatoes, toast, and a cup of Earl Grey. Other times it's more of a simple grapefruit. For comfort programming, Sesame Street continues to stay relevant with funny and educational sketches. It's no surprise that these two go so well together and that brings us to our correlation for this week! That's right, the average IMdB rating of Sesame Street episodes and the per capita availability of Fresh Grapefruit is 80% correlated from 2005-2017! So watch Sesame Street for your soul and eat grapefruit for your health!
These times sure have been difficult lately and sometimes there doesn't really even seem to be any light at the end of the tunnel with all that's going on. We wish we could sugar coat it but there are peaceful protests going on across the country for reasons that we should address as a nation. The news can be hard to watch and get burnt out on but we hope you are staying educated and vote. Sesame Street hosted a town hall last Saturday and it was nice to hear these hard times discussed with a positive outlook. We encourage you to watch it if you haven't and have conversations with others about how we can do better.
