Well, Doc., that makes two of us out of the 55, I breezed right through it!!
 
Fo crosue I cna rdea ti! Is't lal aobut cotnxet!
 
And you KNOW it's also about lobe dominance... right-lobers seem to breeze through it, lfet-lrbeobs are the OTHER guys. :smirk:


If ya want a real eye-opener (or mind opener, morelike), find "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" by Betty Edwards. It was a college textbook for me when going thru Commercial Art courses. I didn't know what I'd been doing all my life to render the things I saw, but it became evident from that book I was a "lobe switcher" from the beginning.
 
Do you want to try one that gets both left and right lobers...while sitting at your computer raise a leg, and rotate your ankle clockwise. While doing that draw the number six in the air with your hand. What happens? :devilgrin:
 
Mike, you really need to get a life! :jester:
 
I am also one of those 55! And I have done that ankle/6 test before too! :smile:

I'd be willing to bet that the number out of 100 of LBC owners is a lot higher! :smile: Cuz EVERYONE knows you have to be in your right mind to own a British car!! :laugh:
