Eyes Without a Face

This is the neatest thing. I tried to make one that looked like me, but I couldn't get the nose right. I won't show you the results because it will end up being a study in what I would want to look like or something else psychological, I'm sure. It's a good tool for creating the perfect man...or woman, whatever your persuasion.

I wonder sometimes if offering psychology as a class to non-psych majors in college is a good thing. I knew a girl once who took psychology with no intention of ever becoming a psychologist or psychiatrist. She thought that she was an expert at reading people based on her one semester of psych in college. And she went around dispensing her "knowledge" to people even if they didn't ask. She also studied people's reactions and their choice of words looking for hidden clues as to who they were. I just thought she was a big ol' freak, and I stayed away from her. But I still felt like she was taking a big risk in getting her face pounded by someone who didn't want to be analyzed by a quack. I wonder where she is now, counseling people on park benches in Central Park, probably. "Your left eye twitched when I asked you about your mother. Why is that? Hmmm, let's explore..." I can't stand that.
