Take a look at this image. Is it spinning clockwise or counter-clockwise?
I saw this on someone else’s blog last week and it had me mesmerized. Allegedly, is you see the image spinning counter-clockwise you are psycho! Heh, just joking, if you see it spinning counter-clockwise you are supposed to be more left-brained. Clockwise, naturally, would mean you’re more right brained.
Now personally, the first time I saw it, I saw it spinning clockwise and I couldn’t make it switch directions. The next day, I went back to the page and it was spinning counter-clockwise, but I was able to concentrate and change it back and forth. Today I am looking at it and it is spinning counter-clockwise and I can’t change it.
My good friend Horbi just came over and he says that the image itself keeps changing back and forth and he isn’t trying to make it change. I, on the other hand, have been sitting here looking at the exact same thing he is looking at and it hasn’t changed for me, still counter-clockwise. It’s possible that Horbi is drunk.
