Test your brain. Does the girl spin counterclockwise or clockwise? If you see her wearing leotards and spinning to the right then you are a liberal pinko or a woman. If you see the naked girl spinning to the left then you are a red-blooded American male even if you are a woman who lives in Europe and likes to knit. If you see her spinning bothways you live in California or New Hampshire or Vermont.

At first I saw her spinning clockwise, then replacing my focus she started spinning counterclockwise. Now can I see her spin both ways at command and in leotards or naked at wish. So what's the verdict, Scientific Spinmaster? Quote: Surely not both ways at the same time. I live in liberal pinko New York. In the red-blooded American part of New York. In a liberal pinko county in New York. In a good red-blooded American township in New York. If you stare long enough you'll see her spin both ways at the same time and do a somersault with it. (I'll stay out of an eventual next hogwash. I can do no good there. So I give up, leave it to you old gang) Last edited by BranShea; 10/14/07 08:22 PM. #170605 - 10/14/07 08:24 PM Re: Since No One Wants to Play Hogwash...

Be a choreographer. I would say neat!. :)For the regular switch concentrate on the ellbows. #170607 - 10/14/07 09:58 PM Re: Since No One Wants to Play Hogwash...

She's spinning to the right during half of her rotation and to the left during the other half and it doesn't matter whether she's spinning clockwise or counter-clockwise. #170609 - 10/14/07 10:16 PM Re: Since No One Wants to Play Hogwash...

The test doesn't determine whether you are a good guy or a pinko. This is a test to discover whether your brain is mostly circuited on the left or on the right. Below are some traits that are peculiar to the left or the right side of the brain . You see her spinning counter-clockwise <-- LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses logic detail oriented facts rule words and language present and past math and science can comprehend knowing acknowledges order/pattern perception knows object name reality based forms strategies practical safe You see her spinning clockwise --> RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses feeling "big picture" oriented imagination rules symbols and images present and future philosophy & religion can "get it" (i.e. meaning) believes appreciates spatial perception knows object function fantasy based presents possibilities impetuous risk taking Heaven help me. I test on both sides of the street. Last edited by themilum; 10/14/07 10:17 PM. #170610 - 10/14/07 10:33 PM Re: Since No One Wants to Play Hogwash...

Ah Grasshopper, you approach the truth but then run away. Yes her spin is both to the left and to the right. But now, betsy bug, you must explain what causes the illusion of the change in direction of her spin. Hint: Look at the spinning girl through Einstein's eyes.
