sleep (as usual) I was thinking about how long ago people were first living in N America. Now I see this post. I was going to look for the research on this topic and now I see this. Cool. That happens to me a lot. Coincidence or synchronicity?

but I debated with myself, just a little, on whether to post this or not. I thought that with all going on in the world maybe people would not be interested. But then I thought that what is needed is a break form all the serious, bad stuff, so I posted. Glad I did and that you enjoyed the video!!

this happens to me all the time and they think I'm psychic or something. It often comes in bursts for some reason. I wish I could turn my mind off and get some sleep. At least I don't have to research this topic now. Thanks!

I suspect your brain is simply retaining and processing much more information from the world around you than most of us and that you make connections within that information and also with your own experiences much faster and more often than most of us.

Yes, I admit it. I am a BigmanPigman fan!

I make a lot of visual connections (that was one of the reading comprehension techniques we teachers in CA had to teach the students to do). It wasn't easy when you have 6 year olds and they aren't able to do that very well since it is developmental.

I didn't know I had a fan. Thanks for the compliment. I thought my only fans were my dogs and my students.
