    Most car accidents occur within 5 miles of home.
    No two snowflakes are alike.
    The odds of being hit by lightning twice in a long life time are one in 9 million.
    The rest are yours to think of...

    Maybe they want more descriptive terms? I have a snowball's chance in hell of getting an A in this course.
