Gold or silver?

[browneyes]

I remember when I was a kid, I had a problem with the colors gold and silver. I knew the difference, but I called gold silver and silver gold. It was so hard to get it straight. Now that I'm older, I can definately tell the difference. My ds has the same problem I had. My dd didn't. My ds and I are the youngest child in our sibling groups. I wonder if that has something to do with it.


(excuse the fluff, I had a double post )

LOL, RmD. My dd doesn't have the affliction my ds and I have. My ds and I both have brown eyes though. My dd has blue. Maybe that's it.

I had trouble with itch and scratch when I was a kid. I would always ask if someone would itch my back.

Is there really a difference?

When I was little, I couldn't understand why everyone carried on about how green the grass was. I thought it was bright red!

Turns out I'm color blind. Not completely, but enough that I get really confused. My grandfather was color blind and so is my grandson.

Grass now looks green to me, but I think it's conditioning. Now if I could just get people to stop asking if I dressed myself...

I made the same mistake too, it just seemened to me that the color silver looked more valuable so I thought it was gold

Maybe that was my problem, Jason. Silver is much more shiny than gold. I didn't think that might be what was going on.
