After the sociopath, when the fog starts to lift, many of us ask ourselves, “Why didn’t I see what was going on?” According to a new book, we should probably cut ourselves some slack.

Read Book Review: The Invisible Gorilla on Scienceblogs.com.

    Oxy, You have been notably silent today, where have you been? Are you okay? You are usually much more talkative than this, is your computer okay? Are Fat and Hairy giving you grief? Did you fix the fence? What’s going on?

    Here I IS guys, don’t panic. LOL Just been hot here today and had things to do and then wanted to watch America’s got Talent. So been doing that.

    Son D and I went for a long walk down to the middle pond between sundown and dark and looked at the threes along the way that the cattle use for shade after a dunkin’ to get wet! It was a wonderful slow walk just looking at a couple of trees that had died inside the grove, and a vine we had never noticed before. Checking the condition of the various pasture grasses, and noticing what the cows had eaten and what they had left and “didn’t like.” Thinking about how many weeds there used to be in the pasture and now there are so few (thanks to all my hard work!). Found an armadillo hole on the runway—never had those critters here when I was a kid. Noticed it so we can “get’em” and fill up the hole so no one breaks a leg in it.

    It is cooling off some here and it’s wonderful to get outside and just “commune” with the universe.

    Son D almost has my new mobile moveable duck pen finished. He’s using it to practice his welding so he’s doing two things at once. The pen I designed was too heavy. This is the new and improved design.

    Anyway, what ya need me here for you guys are pretty darned good at giving advice AND in screwing in light bulbs! ((((Hugs))))

    Ok, Prince Poppy Cock, is my number 1 or 2
    The little 10 yr old girl ties with hiim
    The boy piano player ties with them both
    The antigravity group of guys tied with the above three and the first magician I like, the blond magician blew it last night, his train disappearance was a good trick but his lead up made it so HO HUM I didn’t like it. at all
    That getto group of dancers might get through, not sure.
    The little blonde waif singer is cute but her voice isn’t anything nto write home about.’
    The black lady that sings in the subway is AWESOME
    the two on the trapeeze are okay for a circus act and they will get a job some where doing that, they are good, but not STARS ,

    I’m really rooting for the little girl but Poppy Cock is right up there with her, so we will just have to see what happens in the finals.

    The boy on the bike is good, but I am now WOWed by that kind of thing.

    Got a good night’s sleep last night, I’m working hard on getting better sleep and more and better exercise. To feel better. Been feelinhg like pounded dog do fortoo long.
