Have you noticed that your brain is more stimulated lately? You Alzheimer’s is in remission? You recognize people you have never met before? You can easily find your keys and take the shortest route to your parked car? Your frontal lobes are in overdrive? It’s very likely a result of your frequent visits to this* blog.
A recent article in the Costco Connection magazine, where I incidentally get all my science news, explains:
I don’t expect any gratitude for the miraculous recovery of your long lost memory. I am just happy you visit and remember to comment on occasion.
If you feel that your other body parts need to be similarly stimulated you can always go here.
If web-surfing makes the brain younger, mine should be about three years old by now. Somehow I don’t think this theory holds water, but thanks anyhow. At least now I have an excuse to spend ten hours a day online.
