Today I learned that a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle isn’t necessarily 1000 pieces exactly. It’s likely closer to 1030 or so.

I ordered a copy of one of Brent’s favorite childhood puzzles for us to put together and I wanted to make sure all the pieces were there since we’re talking about a 47-year-old jigsaw puzzle so I counted all the pieces and was surprised that there are actually 1036 in this one.

Did a little Internet sleuthing and it turns out that puzzle piece counts aren’t 100% accurate.

So hooray for learning new facts and hooray for managing to get a good deal on a complete puzzle that’s gonna be a lot of fun to put together!

But now you don’t know if you have all the pieces because what if the literal number was even more?
