Life Quizzes

In college I remember it was very popular to take certain quizzes to figure out what kind of person you were. Just recently (about two years ago) I took another battery of tests to reveal to myself (and others) what kind of labels could used for me. Right now, I am taking the ultimate person-revealing quiz. It's called life. (Have you heard of it?)

But I digress. Quite recently I have been taking the Birmingham Grid for Learning Test.

It's a fun little quiz that tells you a little bit about what your particular learning styles might be. My friend wanted to know more about my score so I sent her this email. (You can enter the code on the Results page of the website).

I laughed about this for about 30 minutes. If you're interested in my real score, you can use the last code to look it up.

Post your code. I'm curious.

The Museum

The merciless sun beats down in mid-August, what should I do? (Yeah, this post is a little late. But think of it as a preview for this coming summer). Normally, I might go to a mall or a local Starbucks during the hellish heat of summer. There I can enjoy someone else's air-conditioning in a clean, relaxing atmosphere, all at a low, low price of free. In this city, it's hard to find such places. But there is one that I've found that I love. It is the museum.

The museum is awesome. It's so quiet and clean. I contemplated moving me and the Boss into the museum. It'd be something like the Mixed-up Files of Mrs Basil E Frankweiler; we'd hide in the bathroom, and then drink the super clean water and sleep on the ancient beds on display. 

But wait… what's this? It looks like a picture of a mighty warrior, getting ready for battle. And is that what I think it is on his head? A Mullet!? (Out of respect for this awesome hairstyle, I will capitalize it). This is where the culture of the museum really shines. I can think of all the derogatory things that people say about the Mullet, little do they know that the Mullet transcends culture. It is the hairstyle of choice for warriors all over the world. See how his visage (I have no idea who this guy is) casts fear in your heart and as your eyes trail to his long flowing mane you are reminded of a flaming ball of fire. Totally sweet.

If you ever come and visit, I'll be sure to take you to this free, clean, cool place where Mullets aren't just respected, they are glorified.

I'm following you

I know lots of people hate Google Buzz. I like it because I don't have to turn on a VPN to use it. Also, its right there with my email, I don't have to open another application or go to another website. It's too bad that its probably going to fizz out.

One super annoying thing about Facebook is that I always get these emails that say: "You could be cool if you joined Facebook. Look, Auntie Jenny  is on Facebook. She's so cool. You could be cool too if you joined."

First of all, I already know that I'm not cool. Let's just get that out of the way. Second, Facebook, do you really know how cool Auntie Jenny is? I don't think you do. Because if you did know how cool she was you wouldn't have let her join Facebook. So there. 

Along those lines I got this awesome email from Jacob.
