Odd ADD Awareness

www.addconsults.com

Ok, so maybe it's not ADD related, but it seems like many of my ADD friends seem to notice things that others don't. And it happens to me all the time, too.

Have you ever watched TV commercials for a food product and noticed that often times, people shown eating a meal use their left hands to hold their fork or spoon? Why is that?

What quirky things have you noticed?
