Who wants to be hypnotized when they could be hypnotouched*?

(It's ALL) About Me (yeah, right!)

I am about many things...to box me into ONE would be a very big mistake.

People experience me as intelligent and offbeat, with a perspective that is NOT down the worn path.
Those who enjoy speaking with me quite frequently find things they didn't even know they were looking for.
If what I have to say seems interesting or might be helpful to you, let's talk!

There is a chat box in the right column,
feel free to chat with others when I am not there, or with me, when I am.
(If you're hearing *blips* while visiting, there is likely to be conversation going on at the time).

About Your Brain

I read an article from the NY Times today.
You can read it here.
(You may need to
join the site
to access it).

While reading,
I couldn't help but think
about how we don't need
"official" hypnosis
to mess with us,
we already do a
pretty good job ourselves.

It doesn't help
that people who see
what the article
explains happening -
they take advantage of it,
even if they don't
understand it.

I think we all have
an inner guidance system
that is quite good at
figuring out what to do
when we need to.

Unfortunately, in my opinion,
it is also the same system
that can be used to
manipulate and distort
and take advantage.

As I always say, and believe,
to be aware of what's possible
is a good part of being
protected, and making
conscious choices that
are to your benefit, and
protect you.

I would say with the
Presidential Elections coming
up, (among other reasons)
it would be something
to be mindful of.

I would also say that
checking your "facts"
before passing them
along as "fact" might
be a good idea. You'll
understand why I say that
after you have an
opportunity to read
the article.

Have a great weekend,
and thanks for dropping by,

A (Humorous) Tale of Two Brains

Men and Women are different.

Nothing new there.

People are always
attempting to explain it.

Anyone who can do it with humor,
and in a way that is helpful,
in my opinion,
is definitely a person to
consider listening to.

With that in mind,
I share the following video.
If you like his approach,
there are others on YouTube,
you can also view.

can you ever have TMI*?

*TMI - Too Much Information

Sometimes what you don't know, CAN hurt you.

This isn't anything hypnotic, or "mind" oriented,
or even erotic.

However, I just saw it, and feel like everyone
within the "sound" of my voice should know about it.

It's about tires. Apparently the industry has a
"dirty little secret", and what you don't know could
potentially be harmful.

I would like to think 20/20 is reputable, but I
suppose, as with anything, you should be responsible
for thinking things through before you decide
what to do with the information given.

Having information is the place to start.

In the meantime, I would check these links out:

Our Brain is an Amazing Place to Be

LOL...As I sit down to enter this entry,
I am smiling to myself.
If you have been reading my blog,
you have noticed that I address many things -
some not things you might
expect in a place like this.

You may have to sort through quite
a variety of entries
to see what is of interest,
however hopefully you've never been,
and never will be, bored.

In this case, I invite you to check out
Jill Bolte Taylor, who did a TED talk.
Have you, btw, heard of "TED"? The
site has so many talks, in a variety
of subjects. Once you see the video,
you may want to spend a little time
there.

It has been floating around for
a while, so maybe you have seen it?
Either way, you can view her talk HERE.

Have a great weekend!

Are You CRAVING ME yet?

Hmmmm....

I thought I would share this with you.

I often see news stories about what
robots can do for you.
Apparently the one discussed in the
video below can be a
surrogate girlfriend.

I don't know what I think about this,
as when people withdraw into themselves,
I am never certain about how good it is.

That is partially why I never want a
hypnotic world to be the ONLY one for
anyone that I talk to.
As good as any virtual world is,
isn't the real one so much better?

Granted, the "real" one comes with risks,
but isn't the potential reward worth
taking a chance?



PS I wonder what Reuters would
think (or will think if they can tell)
of their news story appearing on
a blog like mine...? Interesting
thought to consider, wouldn't you say?
