Does anyone remember the Odyssey of the Mind? I got involved in it myself in the last three years of high school (wish I got involved sooner).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odyssey_of_the_Mind

http://www.odysseyofthemind.or.kr/

I found out they have affiliates in Korean schools, too. Knowing that it just makes me nostalgic for more. Obviously, I'm too old to return to Ootm, but is there any clubs like this? Something like an Odyssey of the Mind for Adults?

I can see it as being helpful not for personal development, but for our professional development, too. Anyone knows?

Well they certainly think differently. Either that, or it was a good piece of creative writing.

Marilyn Monroe reading Ulysses--absolutely brilliant.
