Bummer!
I just read an email from the AARP telling me it’s Brain Awareness Month. I was jazzed and then my excitement turned to crushing disappointment when I saw the email was dated June 2nd. June was Brain Awareness Month and now it’s July 1st. I’d missed it. You too, right?
Let’s pretend we can turn back the clock 24 hours and have a quick little celebration sharing what we know and love about the brain.
I’ll go first. The human brain is considered to be the most complex object in the Universe. It is the control center of the human body and home to at least 86 billion neurons. The brain weighs about 3 pounds, is 75% water, is not fully formed until you reach the age of 25 and has a virtually unlimited storage capacity.
Yet, in spite of these wonders of the brain, The Kardashians remains one of the top rated shows on HULU. So many wasted neurons!
OK, your turn! What d’ya got?
