Talking Left Brain / Right Brain

The following comes to you courtesy of Tappy.

This is s-o-o-o-o stupid, but true...and it's going to drive you crazy.

While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles with it.

Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air, with your right hand.

Your foot will change direction, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Bumper Note: I tried this, as did everybody in my office. It works. TOO WEIRD!! Thanks, Tappy.

One dude in my office tried this standing up. He had to grab onto a desk to keep from falling down and breaking his leg. In his case, I think it's a matter of left brain...right brain...no brain!

that was a GOOD one, Bumper. The entire federal government will be doing it by tomorrow once they spread my message around ... it's surely better than going on strike!

hint: concentrate on your foot movement, not your hand movement. Not nearly as difficult as sinking a three rail bank shot on the pool table while looking back at your wife... that REALLY upsets Lil G !!!

You have apparently mastered the mystical eastern art of divorcing your brain from your motor functions, James. Or is it possible that the mental functions have attrophied so completely from new-baby sleep deprivation that traditional cognitive activities have failed completely? Have you noticed excessive drooling, James, on your part - not the infants?

Ok it took me a couple of tries to do it. I'm left handed so of course I'm in my right mind.

I have completely shut off the left side of my brain, from he right side of my brain. That way I am a right minded thinking person.
