Well, it's official

19

I act like I'm 19.
This test was brought to you by Melissa - No, really.... Take it here.


If only. Actually, I was born in 1963. Do the math. Though my wife often tells me I should act my age, I don't think I'd want re-live that part of my life again for anything.

I'm baaaack!

In a former life, I was a traveling salesman (a whole 'nother story). I averaged 5 days a week on the road, coast to coast, and the CB was a life-saver. During the year and a half that I traveled, I developed a much better appreciation for what truckers put up with on a daily basis. Mike, over at Cold Fury, has a great rant on how to more safely share the road with our 18-wheeled brethren. If you drive, this is something you should read and heed.

Yeah...so?

I am 45% geek
You are a geek liaison, which means you go both ways. You can hang out with normal people or you can hang out with geeks which means you often have geeks as friends and/or have a job where you have to mediate between geeks and normal people. This is an important role and one of which you should be proud. In fact, you can make a good deal of money as a translator.

Normal: Tell our geek we need him to work this weekend.


You [to Geek]: We need more than that, Scotty. You'll have to stay until you can squeeze more outta them engines!


Geek [to You]: I'm givin' her all she's got, Captain, but we need more dilithium crystals!


You [to Normal]: He wants to know if he gets overtime.

The Book Exercise

Grab the nearest book.
Open the book to page 23.
Find the fifth sentence.
Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.


"After Abraham's death, God blessed his son Isaac, who then lived near Beer Lahai Roi."

- Genesis 25:11 from The Holy Bible, New International Version, Pocket Edition

or, for the religion-averse:

"When trying to convert a binary number, such as 10001001, to a decimal number, all you need to do is look at the positions of the 1s."

- from "A+ Complete Study Guide, second edition," by David Groth and Dan Newland

And now for something completely different...

Book and Languages Snob
You speak eloquently and have seemingly read every book ever published. You are a fountain of endless (sometimes useless) knowledge, and never fail to impress at a party.
What people love: You can answer almost any question people ask, and have thus been nicknamed Jeeves.
What people hate: You constantly correct their grammar and insult their paperbacks.

Get thee hence . . .

. . . to Gaping Void, where Hugh McLeod is firing on all cylinders in his essay, How to Be Creative.

Everyone should go read this. Especially if you are one of those folks who keeps saying, "But I'm not creative."
