Uh. the red areas are the parts of the brain that make the fingers type in the porn web sites? Of course, if it wasn't for porn, there would be no internet at all.
HA! if you think the t r o l l s are r e t a r d e d here, just think of their counterparts out in McCainland
I sure hope this is true. The report sounded quite positive until the last paragraph quoting the head of the Alzheimer's Society' Research Division.
Maybe its even better for us because most of use think before we compose responses to the various threads. So we read, think, reason, and then compose our thoughts into sentences. We are using many brain functions beyond simply doing searches.
Please let it be true! There's Alzheimer's in my family and it scares the bejesus out of me.
Internet use helps boost the power of my other vital organs too.
Internet actually helped me grow additional vital organs, but due to a Denial of Service attack at the time, the organs grew on the outside.
I guess that's what's wrong with McCain. He doesn't know how to use the internet....it speaks volumes.
Great....all HuffPosters are getting smarter. Except for the ones that live under bridges of course.
Well this is good to know, I thought maybe I was turning my brain to mush or something.
Needless to say, guess who is computer illiterate? Hint; think of the older gentleman wandering around a debate stage last week apparently looking for his lost dog, Little Puddles!
