Like John Lovitz used to say, "...and I'm married to Morgan Fairchild, yeah, that's the ticket!"

I was certain there would be a picture of Clinton accompanying this article.

Liars had 26 percent more white matter in their prefrontal cortex than people with antisocial personality disorder, and 22 percent more than normal people.

So this explains Paul Begala's giant forehead.

Need to send this to a friend who's married to a pathological liar.

I have a relative who lies like a rug.
Maybe this explains it. I guess eventually
evil will be explained away completely
by science.

12, 16, and 21.
Not a large sampling.

I wonder though, will a lifetime of behaving a certain way affect the development and physical appearance of the brain.

Meaning, do our thoughts or patterns manifest themselves in the brain just as much as the brain creates those thoughts or patterns of conduct?

So now I guess if I'm dealing with a pathalogical liar, I just have to tell myself that he can't help it because his prefrontal thing-a-ma-jig is out of whack.

What a great world we live in, nothing is anybodies fault.

I guess child rapists and serial killers have some other pre-lobal-frontal-anal wucha-ma-callit, poor babies.

I have a problem with this study. What about "possibility thinking?" What about those creative people who invent things and start businesses? Is Bill Gates white or gray? Wildy creative Richard Branson who started Virgin Airlines among other companies?

I wonder where successful writers of fiction fall on the white/gray scale. Are they different from nonfiction writers? Would they be considered "abnormal" by unimaginative psychiatrists? What color is a psychiatrist's brain?

So it's not free will then. That's a relief.
