The Natural Right Brain Enhancement System, Post-script

A number of Fiction in the Forge followers have asked:

Oh Lord of the NRBES is there an easier way? I too want a fully functional right hemisphere, but I can't afford to flay my face with a razor one day and butcher the petunias the next. What can I do?

I read your question, dear blogger, and the first voice I hear is that of my father. He, the king of obscure aphorisms, has always said, "tighter than a bull's ass at fly time."

Apropos of nothing I know, but he always says it. Now, regarding your predicament, there is hope. I admit that even a pliant, adaptable program like the NBRES has it's limits. Sick of watching the knife sweep butter off the toast, across your wrist, and up your arm? Tired of stumbling across intra-office emails that make fun of your personal grooming/appearance? The NBRES is not for everyone. And still, you long for a right brain that serves as more than a counterweight to keep you from veering always to the left.

The solution is simple, but not easy: learn to play a musical instrument.
