Awareness Test

I received a link to this video a couple of weeks ago from a member of the local bike club. It was designed as an ad to encourage motorists to watch for cyclists. Follow the directions and see how well you do.










How did you do? Did you watch it a second time to see if the bear was really there in the original video? What does this tell you? Is it possible for you to miss something because you have been mis-directed? How does that make you feel about the media and political campaigns?

Whatever, if it had been a REAL bear I would have noticed! On a side note, I am very proud of myself for getting the right answer. :-)

I was proud that I counted 13 passes as well!! "Pride goes before a fall..." Yikes. BTW, the apple dumplings were all my doins'- glad you enjoyed!

I cheated...I didn't think I had time to watch the video right that minute, so I continued on to read the rest of your post...too bad I don't know if I'd seen it or not!

Cool. I wasn't aware of this video till now. It'll fit nicely with Sunday's sermon.

A moonwalking bear is church - is that progressive?

Or, just weird?
