My FAVORITE book, Sep 21 2004
By LovesLaughing - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mental Jogging: 365 Games to Enjoy, to Stimulate the Imagination, to Increase Ability to Solve Problems and Puzzles (Paperback)
I bought this book in around 1992 and immediately fell in love with it. I was at a very stressful job, and I used to make myself laugh out loud with the answers I would create. The book is rather simple in a way, but joyfully challenging in another. The author challenges you to come up with more and more creative answers to very simple questions. An example is what are 6 ways to keep from spilling your coffee while driving. Most people start with the obvious or practical, like get a mug with a lid, or drink through a straw. But, if you let yourself go, and give yourself permission to be silly (creative) you come up with things like: spill it while the car is stopped, spill orange juice instead, spill it when you are a passenger, ask someone to spill it for you. I found that I was able to get out my frustration for my manager in the pages of the book (while laughing hsyterically), allowing me to remain civil and professional with her. In fact it was at this job that the idiots there threw the book away while I was on medical leave. I have been searching for it for 12 years! I just got my used copy online and danced around the kitchen. My old friend was BACK!! Buy this book and make yourself laugh!

Fabulous resource to entertain and teach creative thinking!, Jun 23 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mental Jogging: 365 Games to Enjoy, to Stimulate the Imagination, to Increase Ability to Solve Problems and Puzzles (Paperback)
My classroom, fellow teachers, and groups of friends enjoyed the 365 clever creative thinking exercises. Can be a useful tool for children and a great party game book for adults. Many teachers looking for copies of their own....I guard mine with my life.
