Mind games....no, really.

In class, Mary brought up a game in which one uses one's mind to move a ball through a maze. "Impossible!" we all thought. "Utter rubbish!" Well, she was right! The good people at the Mattel Corporation bring you Mindflex, the first board game to use the power of thought to help you play.

To play, you strap on a silly-looking headset and wirelessly connect it to the base unit. Then, you concentrate harder to raise the ball on a jet of air, or concentrate less to lower it. I've searched around, but they're sold out all over. It'd be really nifty to try! Does this mean we're not far off from turning on the TV by just thinking about it? Can Americans really get lazier? Only time can tell!
