The Door Ever walk into a room with some purpose in mind, only to completely forget what that purpose was? Turns out doors are to blame for these strange memory lapses. Psychologists at the University of Notre Dame have discovered that passing through a doorway triggers what'sknown as an even boundary in the mind, separating one set of thoughts and memory from the next. Your brain files away the thoughts you had in the previous room and prepares a blank slate for the next locale. Thank goodness for studies like this. It's not our age, it's the stupid doors! |
I contend that for a nation to try
to tax itself into prosperity is like a
man standing in a bucket and
trying to lift himself up by the handle.
-- Winston Churchill
They Walk Among Us!
| Seems an Arkansas guy wanted some beer pretty badly. He decided that he'd just throw a cinder block through a liquor store window, grab some booze, and run. So he lifted the cinder block and heaved it over his head at the window. The cinder block bounced back and hit the would-be thief on the head, knocking him unconscious. The liquor store window was made of Plexiglas. The whole event was caught on videotape. |
