The Exam

Saul Epstein was taking an oral exam applying for his citizenship papers.

He was asked to spell "cultivate" - he spelled it correctly.

He was then asked to use the word in a sentence.

He brightened up and said, "Last vinter on a very cold day, I vas vaiting for a bus, but it vas too cultivate, so I took the subvay home."

Daddy Diaper Duty

As soon as I saw this video, I knew I had to send it to my husband.  It reminded me so much of him when our kids were babies. Me?  I'd been an RN and had changed GROWN UP diapers.  Changing little baby diapers was nothing to me.  But at times it was a bit of a challenge for my life partner. He was game - he really did want to take part.  He'd grit his teeth and, standing a full arm's distance away, he would dab at the rear end before him in tiny ineffective wipes.  I'd generally end up taking over, "to do it right." (the thing we wives are never supposed to do - but believe me, he was always relieved)

You might think the situation unfair, but I did not mind changing the great majority of diapers.  You see, Husband can squish bugs without getting grossed out.  I, otoh, am exceptionally squeamish around the little critters. So it was a perfect trade off as far as I was concerned.

This provided us with a good laugh and reminder of days gone by:

Most people don't know it but this is actually what dictionaries are based on. If you don't believe me, pick up any American dictionary and look up "source" and "sauce" and you'll see they are written with the same vowel pronunciation.

Probed and Analyzed

Your Brain Usage Profile:

Auditory : 45%
Visual : 54%
Left : 66%
Right : 33%

Gail, you are somewhat left-hemisphere dominant with a balanced preference for auditory and visual inputs. Because of your "centrist" tendencies, the distinctions between various types of brain usage are somewhat blurred.

Your tendency to be organized and logical and attend to details is reasonably well-established which should afford you success regardless of your chosen field of endeavor, unless it requires total spontaneity and ability to improvise, your weaker traits. However, you are far from rigid or overcontrolled. You possess a degree of individuality, perceptiveness, and trust in your intuition to function at much more sophisticated levels than most.

Having given sufficient attention to detail, you can readily perceive the larger aspects and implications of a situation or of learning. You are functional and practical, but can blend abstraction and theory into your framework readily.

The equivalence of your auditory and visual learning orientation gives you two equally effective sensory input systems, each with distinctive features. You can process both unidimensionally and multidimen- sionally with equal facility. When needed, you sequence material while at other times you "intake it all" and store it for processing later.

Your natural ability to use your senses is also synthesized in your way of learning. You can be reflective in your approach, absorbing material in a non-aggressive manner, and at other times voracious in seeking out stimulation and experience.

Overall you tend to be somewhat more critical of yourself than is necessary and avoid enjoying life too much because of a sense of duty. You feel somewhat constrained and tend to sometimes restrict your expressiveness. In any given situation, you will opt for the rational, and learning of almost any type should be easy for you. You might need certain ideas explained to you in order to fit them into your scheme of things, but you're at least open to that!

Could someone please explain that last line to me? S-L-O-W-L-Y, so that I can catch it, if you don't mind.
