| Ok, so, here's a few challenges for all you. 1) If you're left-handed, this may or may not be applicable (or maybe it would if you used reverse feet? I donno, I'm righthanded). Step One: Grab a something to write with (ie pen or pencil), and something to write on (ie paper). Step Two: Raise your right foot. Step Three: Rotate right foot Clockwise. Step Four: Without stopping or reversing the movement of your foot, write the number 6 (NOT six, but 6) with whatever you chose to write with (probably a pencil), on whatever you chose to write on (probably paper). It's supposed to be impossible to write the number without reversing your foot (unless you're lefthanded? again, no idea..). I think it's possible, but you kind of have to cheat to do it (ie write the number really fast). Here's another, more unsettling challenge. Drink a gallon of milk in one hour without throwing up during that hour or the following hour. Theoretically, again, impossible, because your body simply, outright rejects the amount of bacteria you take in when you drink that much milk, forcing you to vomit. I'm sure it is kind of possible, but it's definitely not a common thing. Yet another. Get two pens (or pencils). Get two pieces of paper. Put one pen in each hand. With one hand, draw a square, and with the other hand, draw a circle. You can't do it, presumably. Actually, normally what happens is you get a big blob of nothingness on both pieces of paper. Sometimes, someone will actually draw a circle and square as intended. They say that means you might possibly be schizophrenic, or the cord between the two halves of your brain (the corpus collosum) has been severed or doesn't exist. Well, that's it, for now. NOTE: I don't reccommend the milk one. I can almost garuntee you 100% that you WILL NOT be able to do it without painful vomiting (or at least some kind of vomiting) associated with it. The other two, though, have fun confusing yourself with them. I know I did. | ||||||
Watch out, a psycho hobbit has gotten loose and is terrorizing the populace! Be very wary of him: He is to be considered armed and very dangerous! ::A cute, 3', red-faced, curly-brown-haired, and obviously well-fed hobbit wanders down the street...:: | |||||||

| The 6 one is easy! I'm not left handed but try useing the left foot counterclockwise. It might be that way. | ||||||

| Another interesting one is to turn one arm clockwise and the other counter-clockwise at the same time. It IS possible, but difficult. It can hurt a little too, heh. | ||||||

| Please don't try to drink a galon of ANYTHING in an hour. It will completly imbalance your body. Even if you drink just a galon of water in an hour, your body dosen't have time to get rid of the excess water, then all the water moves into your red blood cells because there is less water in you red blood cells than in the fluid it is in so the water defuses from the area of high concentration, (fluid outside the red blood cells) to the area of low concentration (your red blood cells) causing them to explode. I've actually put red blood cells under a microscope and tried this in Anatomy and Physiology and put pure water with them, and sure enough, they exploded. It was cool, just not something you want to happen in your body. (You can shrivil them up (or what they call crenate) when you put them in very salty water too) I've actually heard of people haveing to have there stomachs pumped because they tried to dring a galon of milk or water in an hour. I would really like to see the square/circle experment done on people who have had there corpus collosum severed (it use to be done to cure epalepsy.(Im preety sure I spelled that wrong)) | ||||||

| I agree, I have been studying too hard. But I don't think I'm going to be allowed to forget that untell I get out of Anatomy and Physiology. I thought I would be done with it last semester, but it flooded over to this semester. I really, really want a job, but it will be a nursing job. (I have my CNA license) So I think I shall always be nursing oreanted for the rest of my life.:) | ||||||
