Mind Stuff
Mind Stuff
Pretty Cool
Don't ask me! I don't know how it's done!!
------------------------------
Read out loud the text inside the triangle below.
More than likely you said, 'A bird in the bush,' and...
If this IS what YOU said, then you failed to see
that the word THE is repeated twice!
Sorry, look again.
Next, let's play with some words.
What do you see?
In black you can read the word GOOD, in white the word EVIL (inside each black letter is a white letter). Now, what do you see?
You may not see it at first, but the white spaces read the word optical, the blue landscape reads the word illusion. Look again! Can you see why this painting is called an optical illusion?
What do you see here?
This one is quite tricky!
The word TEACH reflects as LEARN.
Last one.
What do you see?
You probably read the word ME in brown, but........
when you look through ME you will see YOU!
Do you need to look again?
This is really cool. The second one is amazing so please read all the way though.
ALZHEIMERS' EYE TEST
Count every 'F ' in the following text:
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI
FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...
(SEE BELOW)
HOW MANY?
WRONG, THERE ARE 6 -- no joke.
READ IT AGAIN!
Really, go Back and Try to find the 6 F's before you scroll down.
The reasoning behind is further down.
The brain cannot process 'OF.'
Incredible or what? Go back and look again!!
Anyone who counts all 6 'F's' on the first go is a genius.
Three is normal, four is quite rare.
Look at the spinning woman and if she is turning right your right side of your brain is working. If she is turning left your left side of your brain is working ...
If she turns both ways for you then you have a 160 or better IQ

Makes Old Men Smile
Skinny Dipping
An elderly man in Florida had owned a large farm for several years.
He had a large pond in the back.
It was properly shaped for swimming, so he fixed it up nice with picnic tables, horseshoe courts, and some orange, and lime trees.
One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond, as he hadn't been there for a while, and look it over.
He grabbed a five-gallon bucket to bring back some fruit.
As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee.
As he came closer, he saw it was a bunch of young women

He grabbed a five-gallon bucket to bring back some fruit.
As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee.
As he came closer, he saw it was a bunch of young women
skinny-dipping in his pond
He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end.
One of the women shouted to him,
"we're not coming out of this pond until you leave."
The old man frowned, "I didn't come
The old man frowned, "I didn't come
down here to watch you ladies swim naked,
or to make you get out of the pond naked."
Holding the bucket up he said:
"I'm just here to feed the alligator."
Some old men can still think fast.
