Coordination Test

**Pammy** · 19th-September-2003, 09:47 AM

Proof that the same side of our brain cannot do 2 different things at once...

While sitting at your desk make clockwise circles with your right foot. While doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change direction.

and if you concentrate on the foot you end up drawing a backwards 6.

My class thinks im weird now

*Andy McGregor* · 19th-September-2003, 01:46 PM

I can't do it

Where do you get these things from Pammy

And why are we sitting here in our lunch break trying to do them

I have this vision of dancers all over the country getting funny looks from their workmates

I can just about do it if I'm doing both slowly.... But I'm a freak too...

It's easier if you do the 6 from the other end of the line.... :cheater's grin:

Thank Jayne, I can do it now. I thought it was because I was left handed

We already get the looks, this just confirms their suspicions!

Oh don't worry, I already do. Most specimens come from the office afterall, colleagues who've over-stepped the limit by making tedius gorilla jokes

All it takes is one swift swoop with the post knife and there's another head in my bag...

If I ever pluck up the guts to say hi and ask for a dance I will be sure to wear a box

I tend to opt for the paper bag approach

Guess we'll match

And you want to come on a flight with me???

I don't think they'll let you wear the box when the plane is taxi-ing; the flight attendants wouldn't be able to do their "last minute checks" with that in place.

Maybe that's when I'll strike...

... ... I mean swoop!

**Pammy** · 25th-September-2003, 12:36 PM

Sure, why not!

A quick look at this thread reminded me of a couple of things I didn't have the nerve to post (maybe you will?)

True - you know women cricketers wear protection too, they don't call them boxes, but "manhole covers"

Maybe true - Do you know what all blonde scouse tarts and jumbo jets have in common?

They've all got a black box.
