Sorry it took so long.

A fun game started by SirFozzie. Here are the rules:

I provide 5 questions, you try to get as close as possible to the real number. PM all guesses to me. Closest to the real # (and no looking it up, wise guys) gets 5 points, 2nd place gets 4, 3rd place 3, 4th 2, and 5th place 1 point. Most points wins and hosts the next game of Guesstimates.

NOTE: You are NOT allowed to do web research for this game. It is called GUESSTIMATES for a reason!

Questions:

1. As of June 30, 2003 how many bank branches are open and insured by the FDIC?

2. The Steelers have been around since 1933, how many games have they won including the playoffs.

3. What is the population of the United States as of May 9, 2004

4. What were the after tax earnings of Wal-Mart in 2003.

5. How many medals to the US win in the 2000 Olympics.

Okay, there is at least one question there that I'm completely ashamed that I don't even know what type of range to put the number in. :) Good questions. Sent. :D

Anyone want to take a wager on an over/under for question 3/4?

3. What is the population of the United States as of May 9, 2004

4. What were the after tax earnings of Wal-Mart in 2003.

(#4 depends on whether that's post-tax profit or income. if income.. I'm DOOOOOOOMED)

#4 is profit not revenue. If you want to resubmit that's fine.
