    We don't do big Xmas dinners. I have hosted passover seder meals and the (jewish) New Year big dinners. So the food without the decorations, if that counts.
    Xmas Day/dinner was always our one big event of the year. No others.

    Although we did used to have a turkey roast dinner on New Year's Day and on Easter Sunday, but it was just a "big roast dinner", not like Xmas.
  • What about Easter, PN? Or family birthdays?

    Another routine distraction. Not as scientific as it thinks it is, I'm sure.

    Congratulations
    You use your brain equally

    Largest 3 from right are: Creativity, intuition, chaos.

    Ghost brands were something I dind't understand until decades later. They're non-advertised non-marketed brands (e.g. Mackesons Stout)
    Ah -found it.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_mark

    I remember Mackesons Stout, though not the other things.

    Mackesons Stout is something I was forced to drink. In fact I was prescribed it by a doctor for an iron deficiency. Can you imagine 13 and 14 year olds being prescribed alcohol now:rotfl:.

    Still, it could be one of the reasons I barely ever drink now. Not quite teetotal, but bordering on it.

  • I'm equal too, the summary says, but in fact apparently 59% right and 41% left, which doesn't sound all that equal to me.

    I use my brain equally too, but slightly different results, I'm a bit more right brained than you (44% to 56%)

    Equal.

    53 left, 47 right.
  • So all our left-right brains are equal, but some are more equal than others?
