Well, let's see...I am above average because...
1. I have 3 children (not 1.86 which is the average per 2000 census)
2. I have a house that is above average size at 3,400 square feet (average is 2,349 per NPR)
3. I weigh more than the average 6' male (which is supposed to be 190 lbs, yeah right)
4. I own 3 dogs which is above average (1.6 dogs per AVMA.com)
5. I own 6 handguns of various calibers (average 2.7 per gun-owning households, which is roughly about 1 gun per household...this data may be outdated)
6. I make in the top 17% for the annual hosehold income per Wikipedia
7. I have a Master's degree (8.9% of population, also thanks to Wikipedia)
8. I have an IQ that puts me in the top 1/2 of 1%
