I still dont see how he gets the glasses to make noices but this guy is way better than the tapdancers or "statue" guys in the French Quaters of New Orleans.
Phyllis Hyman
I didn't discover Phyllis until I watched an episode of TV1's Unsung. She suffered for drug addictions & depression. Sad I know. She was still great though. Her voice is something else.

How many "a" answers did you have for odd-numbered questions?
How many "b" answers did you have for even-numbered questions?
Add up these two sums & this is your LEFT-HEMISPHERE total.
How many "a" answers did you have for even-numbered questions?
How many "b" answers did you have for odd-numbered questions?
Add up these two sums & this is your RIGHT-HEMISPHERE total.
Left-Hemisphere Dominance (left total=10 or more)
Your score indicates that your are generally a high organized person. If you're sloppy, even your mess makes sense to you. When given a job to do, you like to approach the task one step at a time rather than plunging into it. if you're involved in extra-curricular activities, you are probably well disciplined. In the future, you'd probably do well in areas such as accounting, engineering, or computer programming.
Right-Hemisphere Dominance (Right total=10 or more)
Your total indicates that you use intuition & creativity to achieve certain goals, rather than an detailed plan of action. You feel that too much planning tends to limit possibilities. If you're involved in extra-curricular activities that require practice or drilling, you perform well when inspired but otherwise do not enjoy the routine of practicing everyday. Chances are good that you are interested in music, art, athletics.
Balanced Hemispheres (both totals= less than 10)
Your score indicates that you fall somewhere between these two extremes. When given a job to do, you may prepare yourself by making lists (which is something a left-hemisphere person would do), but the lists may not be highly organized (which a right-hemisphere person may prefer)
Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
