Today I was directed to a news story entitled Right Brain v Left Brain, which asks you to look at the image to the right and determine if you believe the silhouette of the woman is spinning clockwise or counter-clockwise. Depending on how you respond it supposedly determines if you are left or right brained. Personally, I always saw her spinning clockwise, but then someone told me to stare at the shadow for a bit and wait until it appears like it started turning the other way. This appeared to trick my brain into seeing it turn counter-clockwise.

By this definition that makes me right-brained, but the qualities described below don’t seem to describe me at all (it doesn’t have “sexy” on there). So what does this all mean? It means that because of this slow news day and various people sending me this link, my time has been wasted. Obviously the next logical step was to waste more time by writing a blog post (my first) about this.
