The Right Brain Vs. Left Brain test:

Do you see the dancer turning clockwise or counter-clockwise?
If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.

Most of us would see the dancer turning counter-clockwise though you can try to
focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.

LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses logic detail oriented facts rule words and language present and past math and science can comprehend knowing acknowledges order/pattern perception knows object name reality based forms strategies practical safe

RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses feeling "big picture" oriented imagination rules symbols and images present and future philosophy & religion can "get it" (i.e. meaning) believes appreciates spatial perception knows object function fantasy based presents possibilities impetuous risk taking

Chimps hunting with Spears? Shamelessly ripped from Dvorak's site -r

Planning world domination?

Hunting chimps may change view of human evolution - Reuters



Quite an interesting development in their use of tools.

Chimpanzees have been seen using spears to hunt bush babies, U.S. researchers said on Thursday in a study that demonstrates a whole new level of tool use and planning by our closest living relatives. Perhaps even more intriguing, it was only the females who fashioned and used the wooden spears, Jill Pruetz and Paco Bertolani of Iowa State University reported.
“This is just an innovative way of having to make up for a pretty harsh environment,” Pruetz said in a telephone interview. The chimps must come down from trees to gather food and rest in dry caves during the hot season.

Don’t worry, Charlton Heston has a Loincloth and Rifle ready if those stinking apes get out of hand.

Baby arrived just about a month ago and since then its been like living with Paris Hilton, she sleeps all day and parties all night...

Has anyone seen my heart? I lost it on November 16 near the Labor & Delivery Suites at Methodist Hospital.

Huh? Baby Names?

As I ponder this great debate, I have been subjected to suggestions and memories of how someone chose the name of their child.

To date the best memory is that of a co-worker that suddenly woke-up from a dream and the name of her child was right there...

OMG! If for me it could only be that easy...

The child's name would have to Carmen Electra or Pamela Anderson or even Halle Berry.

Carmen Electra is Scientific

Just like every other Playboy Playmate, Carmen Electra says she will make the natural transition into the study of quantum physics.

"I'm really into quantum physics. Some of my friends are into it, some of them aren't, so I'm trying to get them excited about discovering all these interesting things about thoughts and the power of thoughts. It gives me chills thinking about it. It's fun."

The "power of thoughts" should have told Carmen Electra that watching Mr. Wizard really shouldn't be that big of a life changing experience.... Somebody should just tell her to take all her clothes off and look in the mirror. Then she'll realize that’s she's Carmen Electra. She's not supposed to be trying to secure grant money for research on her time machine; she's supposed to be naked. The only scientific formula she needs to know is that the solid blue line means you're pregnant.

Oh my God!

Nearly a month has gone by, without a single post. YIKES!

gone but not forgotten...

Sorry for the lack of posts...

It was bound to happen, you can only tempt fate so many times, before it gets you.
It is often said that those that leave first are the ones that will be missed the most. Steve "Crocodile Hunter" Irwin died doing what he loved!

RIP Steve...

Mirror, mirror on the wall, why are you glued?

After reading tons of DIY articles on how to remove a glued on mirror, I thought I had it all ready, by taping it and wearing safety gogles. Ha! No one article said that it was the toughest type of glass on the planet. (I think my mirrors are made from diamonds). I think I pulled a rib muscle striking it with a hammer! The thing would not break. In the end the mirror came off the glue by prying it whole, no breaks, no cracks. Anyone want a mirror?

Movie Titles and Whatnot

Ok movie titles sometimes are a bit screwy.
The Illusionist for example, when you see pictures of Jessica Biel, do you think... illusion, mirage, or hallucination. Does she seem false? If I were a prestidigitateur, I would surely use her in my act. She would keep everyone’s eyes off of whatever I was doing...
