Inherited Trait

In the book I am reading (well, okay Listening to) the main character commented that he had heard that the ability to lift only one eyebrow was inherited (like the ability to ‘roll’ your tongue). I can do the eyebrow thing, my Father could also do it. Can any Wrigley children or Grand Children do it? I always thought it was a skill I ‘mastered’ because I saw my Dad do it. I can raise the left eyebrow, but not as good at my right brow. I am left handed.

Lynda cannot do it (nor any of the critters).

Comments? Can others without Wrigley DNA do such a 'neat' thing?

  • I am right handed, and it's much easier for me to raise my left eyebrow.

  • Actually meant to be posted by Tami;

    I can raise one eyebrow, but not the other. I don't know about the inherited thing... I actually practiced and practiced and practiced it until I could do it. Sometime around 11 or 12, I think. I can't do the other side because I only practiced the one.

    I guess I will have to ask my parents if they can do it! Was this supposed to go only to me or also to Jen (to check Melissa)?

  • So far, I am in Tami's camp. Pratice, not inherited.

  • I can't do it. I'll check with rugratt when she comes home, but I've never seen her do it. :)
