Love is the battery of life....

Hi,


Nope, there is no such operation (Would you risk a brain surgery for that ?) and I don't think you'll find classes for that as well.  You are right, it is boaring to try and remember list of items....  That's the bad news, now let's move to the good news: Play Bridge.  The game is very: entertaining enjoyable, good fun, place to meet nice peole, challenging and above all impproves the memory (you have to remember all the cards, and what each player showed and bid).  Good Bridge players remeber every card played during the entire evening with their sequence as well ! (I do it easily).  Our brain is like a muscle "Use it or loose it !". 
Best regards,

Memory can be improved by exercise, and training your brain to remember things can actually make a difference. There are several sites that are free and can help you, and I am sure if you're willing to pay there are many places that would be happy to take your money...

It takes a lot of work though. It doesn't come easy.

Well there is no thing as a "poor" memory or a "bad " memory it does not exist. memory is i am pleased to tell you a muscle, and like many muscles needs good excercise.

have you heard older people say if they do not use it they loose it. Well due to presures of life we use our memory in different ways to which they were formed to act.

I went to Mental Combat in uk and they did a one day course it was brill

they miight give you some freebies as they were really nice people

hope this helps

Pinky and the Brain - Intro Theme

Intro to Warner Bros. and Amblin Entertainments 1995 animated series Pinky and the Brain If any part of Animaniacs deserved a spin-of series, it was the Pinky and the Brain segment. The series followed the elaborate plans of Brain, a genetically altered lab mouse, who was assisted by fellow genetically altered lab mouse Pinky, whose sideways look at things and lack of focus on the job at hand infuriated Brain. From their home/base/prison in Acme Labs, the two endeavored to take over the world, coming close only to fail at some critical point that was either overlooked by Brain, or else because of Pinkys aforementioned lack of focus. Occasionally, Brain finds himself either defending the world from menaces like Snowball, an evil hamster with intelligence to rival Brain, or saving himself and/or Pinky from other nefarious threats. One is a genius, the others insane - but which one? Whereas Pinky seems to be the insane one, he has in some episodes bizarrely come closer to taking over the world than Brain and even succeeding several times (like in the episodes Pinkys Plan and Pinkys Turn. In the case of the episode That Smarts, the Brain finds that it is he that is the cause of his own failures and not Pinky. Unfortunately, the show was later ruined with the release of Pinky, Elmyra and the Brain in 1997, lets just pretend that that never happened. The entire series - all 65 episodes - are out on DVD in the USA on three box-sets. The use of this introduction theme clip/subject is claimed under 'Fair Use' on the grounds of: 1) the clip/subject is used for - and accompanied with - comments on the show. Comments include such things as the producers of the show (as in the production company/s), the year it first aired and how long the series lasted in 'standard length' episodes. Also noted is the availability of subject on high quality, officially licensed media (e.g. DVD). 2a) Inferior quality of video in relation to the quality of the original source. Being at a much lower screen resolution at a high level of compression. In addition to the substantial generation loss caused as a result of the methods used, the process also causes compression artifacts in the form of: loss of image clarity, noise, pixelization, et al. 2b) The inferior nature coupled with the incomplete nature of this recording and the diminished potential value therein of this recording in relation to the original work. 3) The trivial nature of the potential value of subject's introductory theme (hereon referred to as 'intro'), less the actual show that would otherwise follow. On the basis that it is the show - rather than the show's intro - which is, in essence, the primary draw of any 'realistic' potential audience and therefore the main fiscal worth of the subject (relating to audience/market share and sales of merchandising, i.e. DVD and video). 4) Bar the occasional glimpse at an episode's title car, the clip is of the intro and nothing else. The length of the clip is determined by that of subject's intro original length, no more is taken. 5) The poster and host both receive no revenue from this clip's existence on this site.

Exodus- Brain Dead

Taken from the album "Pleasures of the Flesh" Your body lies without a twitch-can't move Feeling gone, nothing to say or do Still alive but you can't think or see You're looking like a vegetable to me [chorus] The darkness lives forever Within your mind Time rolls by and you never paid the cost Without your mind your body-it's lost Should we help to keep you alive? Now's the time to help you DIE!!! [chorus] The darkness lives forever Within your mind No dreams, no thoughts it's only Endless time Brain dead Brain dead Brain dead [solo- Gary] [solo- Rick] Brain dead [repeat 9 more times] 5. Faster Than You'll Ever Live To Be [Exodus] Rode up on my steed, dirty and mean My eyes filled with intent to kill Came in with the dust, a look of disgust The sting of the whip's burning still A crowd of young punks, all getting drunk Think they are fast as can be But what they don't, my guns will show I'm faster than they'll ever be [sub-chorus] Sweat pouring out of my face So many years that I've had to wait Now when you're ready to draw Sound of my gun, you're gone! [chorus] Drifting around From high plains to town The trail of death leads to me The speed of the hand Is faster than you'll ever live to be With fire in my eye, I'll make hot lead fly No one's a match for me I'll blow your head off and make sure you're dead Then pillage on your family The scars on my back bring memories back Of hell in a younger year I'll hunt out the best and lay them to rest I am the west's worst fear! [sub-chorus] You run but you're too slow You're all out of breath and there's nowhere to go Now when it's your time to die No one will hear your cry! [repeat chorus]
