I liked how they introduced her, like "her mother died in an insane asylum thinking she was Queen Victoria" and my thought was, I like where I think this is going. I was not disappointed.

According to these guys, just experiencing things that are out of the ordinary makes you more creative.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

It's not that unusual experiences improve cognitive flexibility that I was surprised by, so much as how readily it does it.

Though given the people out there, I have to wonder how so few people could have so few interesting experiences.

I guess that also reinforces my firm belief that everyone's a freak and the ones who seem normal are just better at hiding it.  :lulz:

I think that's pretty close to the truth.

the most significant part of this article is that it is apparently a breakfast delicacy in the Netherlands to have a butter and chocolate chip sandwich.
