Suppose he's listening to Cher?


Spotted on (the) Google Earth, this is a cool land formation in Canada that looks like an American Indian listening to an IPOD. Of course, it's just another example of
Pareidolia, like seeing a face on Mars, the Madonna in a taco shell or an angel in the clouds. What's really interesting is that you can actually see two different faces, depending on which lines you use as the mouth and eyes. An article about this image and other cool things found on (the) Google Earth is here.

I find it fascinating that our brains find such images in randomness.

Our brains are the reason that humans have created such perfect societies on earth.
