One

 

The difference between a baker’s dozen and a podiatrist’s dozen is always going to be one.  Just as in any jury, there is always going to be one.  Some believe it is that one which makes the system work.  Others, of course, disagree.  But then, there’s always one.

 

It isn’t so much a math issue as it is an arbitrary collision of opinions.   Into the mix we find various levels of strength, power – if you will.  Some opinions are quite strong and delivered in a forceful manner, while others come across as weak, and consequently ineffectual.

 

By now, at least one of you will be wondering what any of this has to do with a baker’s dozen.  The answer to that is, of course, thirteen.  That’s one more than twelve.

 

It’s always one.

 

By the way, this is what happens when I feel like writing but haven’t any idea what to write about.  Well… apparently I had one idea.
