JULY 28, 2011 THE ANCIENT ART OF POOFING


JULY 28, 2011
THE ANCIENT ART OF POOFING
  
The spinning lady up there is what is known as a bistable optical illusion.
Which, I don't know about y'all, but that means squat to me...
What I get out of it, is that you can make her spin in different directions, clockwise or counterclockwise if you do a couple of things with either your mind or simply by covering up one eye to look at her, But for all us doubting Lockies out there in the real world..    there is the official type scientific explanation which is...

"The illusion, created by web designer Nobuyuki Kayahara, involves the apparent direction of motion of the figure. Some observers initially see the figure as spinning clockwise and some counterclockwise. If the foot touching the ground is perceived to be the left foot, the dancer appears to be spinning clockwise (if seen from above); if it is taken to be the right foot, then she appears to be spinning counterclockwise."

You just stare at her for a minute or until your eyes start to water and burn, and she will stop spinning clockwise and actually turn around and go counter clockwise. I can say this happened to me, when I gave it a try .. so.. perhaps they are not lying about it.. this time.. wink!
Now your thinking what in the world has this to do with the Poofing thing that got me over here in the first place... well it is just an illustration of the power of our minds over matter and I do not mean emotions this time. I am talking about real "magic" folks!
Now don't get nervous on me.. not witchcraft.. nothing dark or satanic about this.. this is.. well this is just fun!  I was sitting in a doctors waiting room, cause they were running late and therefore ruining my whole pick up schedule, so instead of getting strung out and kicking my foot against the chair leg, I picked up one of their magazines. It had an article on the power of our minds being so much more than anyone thinks they are. It commented that the reason we don't use our brains to their maximum is because we "think" we "can't" do anymore than just wish for things to happen. We are not actually directing our thought energy to bring it about. One can simply bring things into motion and create an action into existence by thinking it will.
Think I am nuts huh? Well, I don't hold it against ya.. everybody thinks that at first, till you try it.. and then you will be amazed by it!
This does not work on people, by the way.. so just get that thought out of your mind totally! You must not use this power for evil.. LOL!
Basically so far I have been able to control traffic lights to a degree that I almost never have to sit through a red light anymore!
 Yeah Baby.. that is some kind of wonderful right there!
In case you have forgotten, I make my living as a courier for LabCorp in Fayetteville, Arkansas, and there is at least a million traffic lights on my route.. well probably exaggerated that a bit.. but sometimes it sure feels that way. When you have to sit through one of those turn arrows to make a street change and you are in a line of traffic so long that you go through three cycles of the turn light before your turn comes up.. makes a person sympathetic to those who suffer from road rage and go postal on people.
But not for me
anymore .. I have learned the art of Poofing!
 When I first have visual contact with a traffic light, I begin to "Poof! You will turn Green for me" thought pattern and it will change just as I start to slow down to stop,
like magic!
 I am not talking about just one light.. you know all traffic signals have different times they stay a certain color and they are all set differently. But this works on every one of them.. no matter what the timer is set on..
 Lockie goes when she gets there!
After I get this set on automatic in my brain to take over when it sees a light.. I am going to shoot for the moon and see if I can make the street clear when I need to pull out from a stop.. now that will be exceptional Poofing if I can get that working for me too!
Stay loose, stay cool, if nothing else is working for ya.. just Poof it!
