Did you know that women use both their brain-halves when listening to a conversation and men just one? This technically enables a woman to follow 2 discussions simultaneously.

The use of 2 brain halves for other coordinations only occurs "by accident" in males. Such as President Clinton who is capable of watching 2 televisions at the same time or people who can write different things with 2 hands at the same moment.

I can actually paint with my right hand, AND one of my feet at the same time.

Looks like crap, but still... a not so useful but weird skill.

Just cuz women use both hemispheres doesn't mean they could listen to 2 convos as efficiently as one. This prolly just means that the words are being accepted by the left side and being visualised perhaps by the right.

Brain,

The article actually mentioned that both sides could receive and process the data independently from eachother. Which means that, though they can hear with 1 and visualize or something with 2, they should also be capable of both visualizing �nd hearing with both at the same time.

We had two cats. One wanted to boss the other around, so he chewed off the younger one's whiskers.

Rather cruel, but hey, wasn't much we could do about it.

Proved to me that the old belief that cats can't handle themselves without their whiskers is wrong... though they DO bump into things occasionally if the whiskers are gone

My cat got attacked by a dog and had to have his tail amputated. When he came home with nothing more than a little stub, he was running into everything. He would try and jump on the counter and just sorta fly past it and hit the wall. =P

It was sad, but sorta funny too, hehe. Poor kitty :/

sorry to break the subject about penises, but...

that thing about women using both halves!! i just learned that in psychology like a couple weeks back! but that doesn't make a woman better than a man. you see, what i'm thinking is, does this mean women have to use both halves while men only need one to get the same job done?? that means that we still have an extra half to do stuff while women have to use their whole brain just for listening to things!

see, men are capable of doing more with less.

aaaactualy

the two halves of the brain thing... well, it is true that women can listen to more than one conversation, but men can't thing is, men can concentrate much better on one subject than women can (you can phase out the rest of the world more easily) comes from hunting / gathering... I believe... hunters have one prey, while gatherers need to watch out and be alert to the world around them.
I don't believe this information is 100% true though

did you know....
URLs have a limit of 80 charecters (without modifiers) because of the standard IBM punchcard, which fit in the standard filing boxes which themselves were made to fit dollar bills, which... I think were made the thickness of railroad rails... which are as far apart as two horses asses, which is the same width of the roman roads.

so there

oh and about palindrome, here's a 306 word palindrome....

Dog Sees Ada
Adam? I'm Adam! Moody, me? Dam it (sic)! Are we all? I know Ada. I saw Ada.
Ah, a short symbol to no denial: Eyes omit naive dog-desserts. Evil right, old-name diets. A tree-bonnet foliate, relax: If Ada did pull order, read. Ada had a foe, fire-rose facade tool, too-hot yard Iraq: arid Elijah at a haj. I lead a reviled noose, Canadian!
It is coded, on a pistol by Rome, "Man is an ardor pelt, tactiler, sad." A tacit sin, a rude Roman enema. I ran; Agnus Dei, Dada lived on.
I, a gap, a zero monad, Ada's nose: "Rift on, evil royal pilots!" I pass a nasal acolyte. I pondered, now idle.
His flack: late no-no's, tits, a cow. Two-cow, to tenor of God! A sin is a sign, ignoble udder-cases! La femme fatale gnawed at a phone-post, also lost call, eh? She'll act solo, slats open. Oh, pat a dew-angel at a femme false. Sacred duel, bonging is a sin; is a dog? For one to two-cow two, cast it so none talk calfs!
I held, I wondered. No piety local as an ass. A pistol (I play, or live not) fires on sad Ada. "No more!" Zap! Again. O devil! Ada died, sung an aria. Men, enamored, uranistic at Ada's relit cattle prod, ran as in a memory blot.
Sip an ode, Doc; sit in. Aid an ace, soon deliver Ada! Elijah!
At a haj, I led Iraq (arid ray to hoot), looted a cafe sore, rife of Ada. Had Ada erred? Roll up. Did Ada fix ale, retail? Often. "No beer taste," I demand, "loth girl! I've stressed! Go, deviant!"
"I mosey!"
"Elaine, Do not lob my Stroh's!"
Aha! Ada was I; Ada won. Kill a ewe, racist.
I made my doom: "Madam, I'm ADA!"
Ada sees God

i am fixated with my nose cheese. i leave my nose for a couple of weeks, to let the ooze and puss build up inside. then when it is ripe dimpled with minature pimples, i look into a mirror and squeeze the fucker hard (till tears come to my eyes), millions of worms come busting out of my nose skin each one feeling like a mini orgasm...i watch them squirm and coil up on themselves, its so glorious.

i like to collect the cheeze and rub them into little balls when im through, i leave them on the carpet for my dog.

nusty stuff

about the thing where u guys said that women can listen to 2 conversations at the same time, its a disadventage not an adventage

I saw on TV where some professor was trying to explain it and basically what happens with women is that they are open to all the noises in their surroundings, for example if 3 people are talking to a women, she'll most likely try to divide the attention evenly to each of them which causes her not to understand anything at all because she cant full concintrate on one person
while men have the ability to ignore all noises around and focus on one thing such as 1 person out of 10... I saw them conduct a study of where 3 people read short stories to a women at the same time and at the end she is like "i have no idea what they said" and the man was able to discribe one of them with detail.. bah i'll shut up now

Did you know that...
the part connecting the two brain hemispheres (the latin name escapes me right now...) can be cut and it will not affect ones life in anyway. 'tis true.
It's used to help people who suffer from (severe) epilepsy; it can reduce the severity (ie. the breadth or area) of "miss-fires" in the neurons (if memory serves me). The separation of the hemispheres from one another only shows up in specific tests that test focusing on objects with only one eye.
Oh, and the brain has no pain receptors, so go ahead and stab your friend in the brain with something pointy.

actually the severing of the two hemispheres does do some weird things, (the old saying, left hand dosn't know what the right is doing becomes literal)

Did you know there's a disorder called "strangeglove syndrome" where a person's hand gets it's own personality
in one of the cases a right hand buttons a shirt while below it a left hand unbuttons it, in another a woman almost died when her hand attempted to kill her by shoving fish bones down her throat
strange....

Separating brain halves also creates some other cute disorders. It seems that, because man only uses one side for speech, you can only connect the speech center with one of two visual centers.

In other words : if you shut one of your eyes and look with the one whose center cant connect with the speech center, you will be incapable of saying out loud what you see. You can point at a computer and know its a computer, but you cant tell people.

Not an assumption by the way, this has been tested and it really works this way.
