Wow, thanks! I can't believe I missed when she was on!

Once again, what's available on the Internet continues to amaze!

BTW, have you heard the urban legend that the cute little girl in the old Coppertone ads used Jodie Foster as the model? Untrue. However, she DID get her start in show business doing a Coppertone ad as this article points out.

Dr Starling move over - I found Jodie Foster's next movie Oscar-winning role! Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor who wrote ""My Stroke of Insight"" and delivered a talk about it on TED.com that will knock your socks off! The video's been seen 5 million times and I understand why.

Taylor was a Harvard trained brain scientist who suffered a massive stroke. I don't think we'll ever hear a story like this - Taylor understands how the brain functions and she was able to observe her mind deteriorating. She writes about the euphoric nirvana and a sense of complete peace and well-being she discovered in her stroke! She talks about this in her incredible (don't miss it) talk on TED.com. The book is great too - highly recommended. You'll learn how to 'step to the right of their left brain' to uncover a deep internal peace. Sign me up!

Thanks, Marjorie, for that info. I'm going to post something in the next few days with the link to Dr. Taylor's presentation. Fascinating.
