I downloaded my first ITunes ever just recently. And actually, my first download was more than
music. I downloaded the video. What drove me to make the leap? Michael Johns’ American Idol performance of
“It’s All Wrong, but It’s All Right”. He
is a good-lookin, late 20’s, something, and the song is a solid, bluesy, croon
with a falsetto at the end that makes my nipples go hard.
There was a recent NYTimes article about how our brains can lead us to remember false statements as being true, if they are heard often enough. In addition, (as I posted earlier)
we are prone to selectively accept and remember statements that
reinforce beliefs we already hold. We tend to remember news that
accords with our views, and discount statements that contradict it.
"I think the right word to use in a situation like this is "dominant," writes BlogHer Sports CE Sarah who knows a little something about tennis. "Tomorrow will mark the third time the sisters will be meeting each other at the Wimbledon Ladies' Singles Final. Then a couple of hours later they will be playing as a team in the Ladies' Doubles Finals."
