I got three the first time and five on the second reading. When I saw the answer was six, I finally saw all six.

I think it has sometheing to do with the "f" in "of" having a very soft pronunciation so that it almose has a "v" sound.

There are seven (7) "F"'s. (Don't forget to count the one in the word "after.")

You will get a prize in the mail if you forward this on to six people in your address book within 30 minutes. You must also return it to the sender. If you don't then you will have bad luck.

(Don't you just hate emails with these messages tacked on the end?)

I got 6, but it took me forever because of the "of." I kept thinking I missed it and kept recounting them. Hmmm.. someone said rainman. I'm feeling a need to go back and count the f's again. Maybe I will count the f's in this post. 1, 2, 3....

Okay, I have one for you. I want you to read the following phrase ONCE and then immediately scroll back up the page or change page or something so you can't see it and write it down from memory.

Hmmm. I counted six on the first time. Does that mean I'm Rain Man? Definitely six, yeah.....

I counted six too. K-Mart sucks.

or more visually oriented?

I don't think so. I'm an artist. I can look at any line and it will immediately register if it's as little as 1/16 of an inch off. It's involuntary. (An irritating talent, believe me.)

I counted 6 the first time so your test is bogus. According to the MSM I am a stupid Southern redneck, uneducated and illiterate.

Now did you write, A BIRD IN THE HAND"
Or did you write, A BIRD IN THE THE HAND?

Look above and see if you got it right.
