I tried to do the Math while watching Notre Dame burn

At the time , when I first saw those pictures, right after dark , I thought the entire cathedral was coming down , even if it didn't burn all the way to the ground , I thought the fire would still make the structure unsafe and have to be torn down

glad I was wrong

but anyways ...........

I was thinking that Notre Dame had stood for 750 years

you figure , there is a new generation every 30 years

that would mean 25 generations have live during that time

and lets say at any given time , there are two generations going

( rough math )

so basically , 11 lifetimes have come and gone , and I thought , what are the odds that it was in our lifetime that we saw the fall of Notre Dame

must be 1 in a 1,000 right

and now , you know why the wife is the one that does our taxes
