%Guys: So I"m listening to this Japanese marketing guy give a talk %on Six Sigma at the Medtronic stat conference today (I had already %given my talk), and after 15 minutes he still hasn't even defined %"six sigma" (tho he has mentioned that employees report the training %has "too much statistics" in it). %It's more or less at this point that I pull out a pad and finish this %song (which I had half-written in the car on the way there). Mark, %there has got to be midi files galore out there for this one; would %love to cut it at Glickman Studios sometime! Maybe this fall? J can %bring her voice *and* the baby to Boston! %The Monkees (and Smashmouth, who just cut a pretty faithful cover for %"Shrek") did it in G, but I think I'd need Neil Diamond's original key %of E to pull off Mickey Dolenz' high outtro (which is nice). %Well, I'm a believer yeah-ee-yeah-ee-yeah-ee-yeah-ee-yeah-ee I'm a believer % -- Brad \documentstyle[11pt]{article} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{0in} \setlength{\evensidemargin}{0in} \setlength{\textwidth}{6.3in} \setlength{\topmargin}{-.5in} \setlength{\headsep}{0in} \setlength{\textheight}{10in} \setlength{\parindent}{0in} \setlength{\itemsep}{-.05in} \setlength{\topsep}{.05in} \pagestyle{empty} \begin{document} \Large \begin{center} {\LARGE {\bf Bayesian Believer}} \end{center} \begin{center} Words: B.\ Carlin Music: Neil Diamond/The Monkees/Smashmouth (``I'm a Believer'') \end{center} \vspace{.2 in} \begin{tabbing} xxxxxxxxxx\=xxx\=xxxx\= \kill {\bf Intro:}\>(key/guitar lick)\\ \\ {\bf V1:}\>I thought inference was just a fairy tale,\\ \\ \>\>Confused by stats and probability,\\ \\ \>Frequentist approaches (doo-doot doo-doot)\\ \\ \>\>\>made no sense to me (doo-doot doo-doot)\\ \\ \>\>Summarizing evidence by $p$?!\\ \\ {\bf Chorus:}\>Then I saw Tom Bayes -- Now I'm a believer,\\ \\ \>\>Without a trace -- of doubt in my mind,\\ \\ \>[I'm a] Bayesian (ooooh) -- Oh, I'm a believer --\\ \\ \>\>I couldn't $p$ now if I tried!\\ \\ {\bf V2:}\>I thought likelihood was just the only thing,\\ \>\>Turn the crank and get the MLE,\\ \>What's the use of thinking (doo-doot doo-doot)\\ \>\>\>Disconnect your brain (doo-doot doo-doot)\\ \>\>Play along and minimize the pain...\\ \\ {\bf Chorus:}\>(repeat)\\ %\\ {\bf Solo:}\>(keys/guitar)\\ \\ {\bf V3:}\>{\tt SAS} was out to get me (doo-doot doo-doot)\\ (partial)\>\>\>-- that's the way it seemed (doo-doot doo-doot)\\ \\ \>\>Fixed effects and forced normality...\\ \\ {\bf Chorus:}\>(repeat 2x w/assorted hollering and out!) \end{tabbing} \end{document}
