Expect Surprises
Expect surprises:
Myriad plans and outcomes
Are unrelated
Expect surprises:
Astonishing genetics
Tell at baby's birth
Expect surprises:
Aircraft, ship and road repair
Can modify plans
Expect surprises:
Perplexity and chaos
Amaze everything
Expect surprises:
New stars old guards outperform
Fresh legends are born
Expect surprises:
Unpredictable people
Make random choices
