“The need to know the capital of Florida died when my phone learned the answer.” Chiveta
This is so true and, then again, so annoying. I find myself going online to find the answer for too much: imperial to metric conversion, place names, spellings, etc. It’s become too easy to rely on a search engine algorithm to get an answer that ordinarily I’d know, or at least be able to work out with a little time and brain power.
Which is why I am so proud of myself – this weekend I figured out something quite trivial without the help of Google. Yes, I finished the task off by using Google to find the name I didn’t know, but I used my slowly deteriorating grey-matter and did it myself.
Here’s why:
I’ve started watching Daredevil on Netflix, and one actor that appears in the third or fourth episode looked familiar. It’s not a face I’d seen for quite a long while, but something about him resonated with me. After a further three episodes I was starting to remember the subtitles of the way he spoke and some other minor visual cues from how he held his head, frowned, speech and how he spoke, etc.
