Thanks a lot ! I put my laptop on the kitchen table and backed up 10 feet and fell backward down the basement stairs.

That's pretty cool. Thanks

Pretty cool. Now, go play a Beatles album backwards on the turntable. Yes, I still have a turntable with a couple hundred albums.

Re: Optical Illusion:

Same thing used to happen to me at bars. Far away she looked like Tina Fey, close up she looked like Einstein!
Maybe it was the Yukon Jack, hmmmmmmmm.

This may explain the "Coyote Syndrome".

You go into a bar and see a good looking girl sitting at the bar that looks like Marilyn and you take her to her place and in the morning you open your eyes and look across the pillow and see Alfred. You want sneak out but you have your arm under her side of the pillow and if you move it you will awaken her.

So like the coyote, you decide it's better to chew your arm off.

Re: Optical Illusion:

this is an interesting illusion, http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...PMpJChAw&hl=en

it allows you to see in color when an image is really in Black And White.

I wondered why there were two guys with remote controls. Pilot and co-pilot?

Does it matter at what part of her I stare at? I keep losing focus.......one moment it's those legs, the next it's those "way up firm & high"s (w/ apologies to Bob Seger).
This is waaaaaaay too tough..........
