Why does this work? 1. While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles. 2. Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your right-hand. Your foot will change direction.

At first this might sound like a bad practical joke. Begin by tuning a radio to a station playing static. Then lie down on a couch and tape a pair of halved ping pong ballsover your eyes. Within minutes you should begin to experience a bizzare set of sensory distortions.

Some people see horses prancing in the clouds or hear the voice of a dead relative. It turns out that the mind is addicted to sensation so that when there’s little to sense (that’s the purpose of ping pong balls and static) your brain ends up inventing its own.

Sorry, didn't happen to me.
It has to do with how the nerve bundles are connected.

ever notice how sometimes you heel something in other places? Pinch the right spot on your arm, and you feel it in your leg too...

It's also how acupuncture works.

Try this:

Tie 50lb test mono around your ball sack. Tie the tag end to a 10lb dumbbell. Leave about 10' of line. Throw the dumbbell as hard as you can across the yard. You automatically take off running in the same direction.

Weird.

No.

I guess then asking for your phone number is pointless.
