ReplyDeleteOh, vay! Lenny, this is awesome! Now, there's jus' one pro'lem; how am I gonna' get my eyes unstuck from being crossed? Maybe I shoule try reading Braille, ya' think? I sure enjoy the different ways that words can be fun. Thanks for this, Lenny.

Cute post and I have a strange brain too because I could read your post without any problems. :)

lol And teachers always said that spelling is important!
ReplyDeleteWow! So neat. I've seen this before. Great job, Lenny. Total research...nice.
ReplyDeleteyep, i could read it no problemo (except for two words). i find this really interesting, because there are a lot of people in my family that are dyslexic. i wonder if they could read this too... hmmm...
ReplyDeleteYes, I could read it. Is there a barometer to tell me exactly how strange my mind is, because that would be totally cool.
ReplyDeleteIt's itnerstenig isn't it? I love that. Cool how our mind works.
ReplyDeleteTihs is so cool! Takns Lneny!
ReplyDeleteIt's so true. So why do we rely so heavily on phonics to teach kids how to read?
ReplyDeleteI totally could read that whole thing!!!! So cool! =)
ReplyDeleteThis is very cool! However, I am an English teacher and this won't cut it in my class. Sorry!
ReplyDeleteI CAN read it -- so cool! :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it so cool?! I did this with my students once. I think it's lots of fun. :-)
ReplyDeleteI could read it. I guess that means I have a strange mind, lol.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day, Lenny!
Ha - so cool! How hard was this to WRITE? Probably harder than reading it.
ReplyDeleteThe human brain is an incredible thing. There's no limit to the things it can do.

Hi Lenny .. great bit of info & I really like that you told me about the first and last letter .. very interesting ..
ReplyDeleteAs Jai says above .. the human brain is amazing .. have a great week ... and see you soon .. Hilary
Lenny this must have taken you forever to do!!! I love this post! So creative!!! It seems I'm strange (go figure)!
ReplyDeleteSince I'm a reading teacher in my "non-writer" life, I can tell you that yes, this is totally true and proven in many different studies. The brain has a funny way of reading, once you are a proficient reader.
ReplyDeleteA very young student just learning to read would not be able to read your blog post, but experienced readers can because our brains are just scanning the letters and using our common sense and understanding of the language to fill in the words.
Amazing, isn't it!
And I agree with Jen -- this must have taken forever for you to type up!
Vrey cool, Lnney! I colud raed yuor wohle psot. It msut hvae been petrty fun wirtnig tihs psot. I raed smoewehree taht olny 75% of the poelpe can raed tehse scamrebld sneecnets.
ReplyDeleteIt's so strange that our brains can decipher odd spellings for us. We're amazing creatures!! Hey, Lenny, I'm so glad I was able to fix the problem on my blog and you can visit again. I love seeing your happy sun over there!!
ReplyDeleteHi, Lenny! I have a blog award for you. :-)
ReplyDeleteI have seen that before, and it's very cool! I admit, I had to stop and thing about the word "slelinpg". My mind wanted to read "sleeping" instead of "spelling" . . . but maybe that's because I really want sleep! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is really interesting. You just made a work day less terrible. thanks!
ReplyDeleteHey Lenny, stop my blog, I gave you an award. www.my-poetry-place.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteSo that's what it feels like to be dyslectic. That would really suck! On the other hand, that does remind me of my spelling sometimes. ;)
ReplyDeleteDude! That toatalyl blwos my mind! I have heard of "whole word" reading before, as a way to teach kids how to read, but this takes it to a whole different level. The brain is an amazing thing. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Lenny! I just came over from Shannon's blog.
ReplyDeleteGreat post- I used to teach psychology and this was one of the fun things I'd show in class. The human mind is pretty darn nifty!
That's pretty cool. I can read every word:)
ReplyDeleteI've seen this before and it's true. I was able to read thru your post quickly and comprehend it with no problem.
ReplyDeleteRe your questions about A to Z, if you want some examples of how it works check my posts for April 2010 or those of most of the bloggers listed on my sidebar. You can literally post about anything in any way--just theme each post to a letter in the alphabet.
Join us! It will be fun.

Tossing It Out
I know--isn't this the coolest? I love all these unusual things we learn about ourselves.
ReplyDeletehope you're having a great week, Lenny!

I think it must be true, because I could read your post just fine. But I'm not going to tell my kids - they'll stop studying their spelling words! :)
ReplyDeleteThat was a fun brain exercise! I feel a little dizzy, but otherwise I could read everything you wrote!
ReplyDeleteLey Henny, I mean Hey Lenny,:-)
ReplyDeleteI could read that neat stuff real easily. It sure is loads of fun! Did you know that sometimes I can get my 'metters lixed' AH AH, I mean HA HA:-)
Hugs and smiles from Gr.Mary, whoops, Mr. Gary :-)
What a cool discovery! This is a fun post. Thanks for sharing it with us.
ReplyDeleteHey Lenny! This is a very interesting post.
ReplyDeleteThe brain is amazing. Yes, I could read the entire post. To quote a special friend of mine, "Wow, how cool is that!" :)
