    Canyou find the man in the coffee beans??? (He is really there.)

    This is bizarre - after you find the guy - it's so obvious. Once you find him - it's embarrassing, and you think, Why didn't I see him immediately?

    Doctors have concluded that if you find the man in the coffee beans in 3 seconds,

    the right half of your brain is better developed than most people.

    If you find the man between 3 seconds and 1 minute,

    your right half of the brain is developed normally.

    If you find the man between 1 minute and 3 minutes,

    then the right half of your brain is functioning slowly and you need to eat more protein.

    If you have not found the man after 3 minutes,

    the advice is to look for more of this type of exercise to make that part of the brain stronger.
    And, yes, the man is really there.

    I kept looking for Juan Valdez! And tried to get it all to blur like some of those other puzzles. Then I realized there was just a single face, not something camoflauged in the whole picture.

    Does that mean I'm too smart for my own good and try to read something into everything? Me?

    I found him, Vera!! EEEEK, when I found him!

    And since I looked at my watch before I began, I can report 42 seconds.Couldda happened faster, I think, were my screen not so TEEENY.

    Anyhow, since I am an artist, it's supposed to be my left brain which is very well-developed...

    Thanks!

    Gotta laugh --it took me all of one second---I'm considered learning disabled.

    I'm strabismic and the two sides of my brain don't function together

    It's the obvious stuff I never see---this stuff sticks out like a red flag for me!

    Thanks for the chuckle.

    PS--My sister calls it a gift and ability not a disability.

    Joan--Since I am also an artist--either I am an aberration, or maybe brain functions are not all that cut and dry----On the other hand my professors always said my stuff was unique---maybe that was why WinkWink

    After 3 minutes I still dont see him.  These kinds of things always make me crazy cause Im not very good at them.  Guess its all the chemo that has turned my brain into mush.

    The first time I saw this I gave up! You're right, as soon as you know what you're looking for it's easy. This time I didn't remember where he was, but I remembered what he looked like and I found him in a couple seconds.

    Like Susie, it was almost instantaneous (well, a few seconds), but I've never been known for my left brain at all! In fact, my Mom used to say that I was "behind the door" when God handed out brains. As a very young child, I had no idea what that meant, but it hurt my feelings. Since she died of Alzheimer's and that can be genetic, maybe I don't want a brain after all. Breasts have been enough trouble!

    Try this one!  If my life depended on it I could not make this gal go anything but clockwise!

    I saw this going clockwise, then looked away and it switched. Was that ME that switched??? That was weird.

    I can vaguely see a man's face in the coffee beans. But only if I really concentrate and it's pretty much in my imagination. Something wrong with my brain??? Don't answer that!

    I have yet to see the man--Ok, I'll call the assisted living place now.

    I can turn the girl each way with little effort.

    Guess I'm just odd.  I could see the girl go clockwise, look away, then see her go counterclockwise.  hmmmmmmmm.

    However, Iodine, could you see if the assisted living center has two rooms?  I can't see the coffee bean man either!!

    Better see if you can get a whole wing of that assisted living place Dotti.  I cannot find the coffee man, get up close or back off, with or without my glasses.   So my right brain is dead.  I can't make the woman go counterclockwise, so I have no left brain.  No wonder I've been having some problems.

    Oh..not seeing the man means I get assisted living? Sign me up..wouldn't mind assisted living!!! LOL I think what I sorta saw I really didn't see cuz I just looked at it today and I just see coffee beans. I did the squinting like I do to get shapes in art, took my glasses off..nope. NOTHING!

    The dancer..I did that too..looked away and she switched!

    I've seen this one before and can't remember where the man is and I can't see him now.  I saw the dancer turning both ways.  I'm left brained but with the residuals of chemo, I'm surprised I have any brain cuz I remember nothing.

    I went back to the dancer...I saw her dancing clockwise..then couldn't switch it..then waited and went to forward that to my daughter and the dancer was going counter clockwise!!!

    Still don't see the coffee bean man and this is worrying me!

    I saw the dancer without any problems.  I still cant see the man in the coffee.  I dont know if I am a leftsided brain person or a rightsided brain person cause Im ambydextrous and dont really have a dominent side.  Maybe thats why I cant see the man.

    All I can see is the shape of a praying mantis in the beans. I want to head up the social activities in the assisted living! I can't make the girl switch directions, either! I know I have a brain because I can read and write. Whassup with that?

    OK, after I wrote this I went back to the top to copy the picture and enlarge it on my computer -- then I found him! Boy, do I feel better!!!!!
