    "Towel Heads"

    Recently I received a warning about the use of this politically incorrect term, so please note:
    We all need to be more sensitive in our choice of words. I have been informed that the Islamic terrorists,
    who hate our guts and want to kill us, do not like to be called "Towel Heads" since the item
    they wear on their heads is not actually a towel,but in fact, a small folded sheet. Therefore,
    from this point forward, please refer to them as "Little Sheet Heads."

    Thank you for your support and compliance in this delicate matter.

    A thought to ponder...

    It has been said that men tend to marry their mothers (e.g. women very similar to their mothers), and women tend to marry their fathers.

    With that in mind, who would a lesbian marry?

    The master procrastinator is sore
    Most of you know already, but for the one or two that don't...

    On my way home from work Thursday morning, a truck pulled out of a side street right in front of me. I hit the brakes as hard as I could, but I was still going close to thirty when I impacted the truck. I flew off my bike, did a neat little flip over the truck, and landed square in the middle of the road. According to witnesses, my bike went under the truck. It's toast. The front end is smashed up against the underside of the frame, completely mutilated. I thank God for my tuck-n-roll instinct, which had me back to my feet and moving off the road a split second after I landed. I was actually up and aware in time to see the truck turn around and pull away. Yes, it was a hit-and-run. My brothers got all vengeful and went looking for the truck Thursday evening. I called my mother to take me to the emergency room after the police/paramedics were through checking me out and bitching at me because I didn't want to take the ambulance. On the way to the hospital, I talked to Morgan, who had a minor freak-out and promptly called in to work so she could drive from Athens to meet me at the hospital. Currently I'm sore, and rather upset about the 290 lb. paperweight that used to be my bike, but I'm otherwise okay, and will hopefully be returning to work tomorrow.

    Below you'll find your test result. After, continue on to your homescreen to discover what we're about.




    Catwalk God(ess)
    53% Flamboyance, 67% Originality, 59% Deliberateness, 56% Sexiness
    [Flamboyant Original Deliberate Sexy]

    You know fashion inside out but you're far from being its slave. To you fashion is what you decide to wear. You've got great, if unconventional, taste and plenty of courage to put your ideas into practice, which inspires admiration; but few have guts to copycat you. I suppose it doesn't worry you because to you originality counts. You are self-confident, perhaps even arrogant, and consider a day wasted when no one gives you an interested or shocked look. Great job.

    The opposite style from yours is Librarian [Tasteful Conventional Random Prissy].

    This is a message to so-called "Christians", from one who lost his religion, but not his faith. Chill out, guys...you're giving the rest of us a bad name.

    Holier Than Thou
    Metallica


    No more!
    the craps rolls out your mouth again
    haven't changed, your brain is still gelatin
    little whispers circle around your head
    why don't you worry about yourself instead

    who are you? where ya been? where ya from?
    gossip is burning on the tip of your tongue
    you lie so much you believe yourself
    judge not lest ye be judged yourself

    holier than thou
    you are
    holier than thou
    you are
    you...know...not!

    before you judge me take a look at you
    can't you find something better to do
    point the finger, slow to understand
    arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand

    it's not who you are it's who you know
    others lives are the basis of your own
    burn your bridges build them back with wealth
    judge not lest ye be judged yourself

    holier than thou
    you are
    holier than thou
    you are
    you...know...not!

    The Everything Test

    There are many different types of tests on the internet today. Personality tests, purity tests, stereotype tests, political tests. But now, there is one test to rule them all.

    Traditionally, online tests would ask certain questions about your musical tastes or clothing for a stereotype, your experiences for a purity test, or deep questions for a personality test.We're turning that upside down - all the questions affect all the results, and we've got some innovative results too! Enjoy :-)

    Personality
    You are more logical than emotional, more concerned about self than concerned about others, more religious than atheist, more loner than dependent, more workaholic than lazy, more traditional than rebel, more artistic mind than engineering mind, more idealist than cynical, more leader than follower, and more extroverted than introverted.

    As for specific personality traits, you are adventurious (100%), intellectual (67%), religious (60%), musical (59%).

    Stereotypes
    Punk Rock93%
    Old Geezer83%
    Young Professional82%
     
    Life Experience
    Sex27%
    Substances24%
    Travel9%

    Politics
    Your political views would best be described as Libertarian, whom you agree with around 100% of the time.
      Socioeconomic
    Your attitude toward life best associates you with Lower Middle Class. You make more than 0% of those who have taken this test, and 54% less than the U.S. average.

    If your life was a movie, it would be rated PG-13.
    By the way, your hottness rank is 55%, hotter than 79% of other test takers.

    It's a meme sort of thing, questions from [info]shania_nowhere. First, here are the rules:

    01. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
    02. I respond by asking you five questions of a very intimate and creepily personal nature. Or not so creepy/personal.
    03. You WILL update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
    04. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the post.
    05. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

    My answers were:
    1: Within your collection of weaponry, what is your favorite piece and why?
    I think my favorite piece is the smaller of my short swords. It's surprisingly light, and it's pretty, in a no frills sort of way.
    2: Have you ever traveled out of the country? If so, where?
    No, but if I ever do, I'll probably go to Ireland.
    3: Do you have any current pictures of yourself on hand? If so, can you post them?
    (HAHA, I'm still after you. XD) *rolls eyes* Yes, I have a recent picture, but I have to scan it.
    4: Can you draw?
    After a fashion, but only if the muse strikes.
    5: If you could do anything (have any occupation), what would you do?
    *sits and ponders for several minutes, then shrugs* I dunno.

    No sh**, there I was...
    rounding up buggies, as usual, when I heard someone yelling. I looked up and saw one of the construction guys up on a lift, installing a camera mount, and I noticed something odd: there was a lot more fog around the guy than anywhere else on the lot. Then I realized it wasn't fog; it was smoke, and it was coming from a car parked nearby. I started walking towards the car to see what was going on, and that was when I saw the flames coming out from under the hood. At that point I made a beeline for the store, ran inside, grabbed a fire extinguisher off a post, and shot back outside. The flames were out within seconds, and the only visible damage was a black patch where the fire had burned the paint on the hood. Apparently there wasn't too much internal damage, 'cause a little while later (while I wasn't looking) the car disappeared, and I never saw a tow truck.

    That was pretty much the most exciting thing that happened last night. The only other occurrences worth mentioning were Randy bringing us free chocolate when he called a meeting, and one of my coworkers got sick all over the breakroom floor...and almost missed me. Bleah. Oh, well, I've had worse at parties (at least I didn't have to hose off my shoes this time), and I needed to wash that hoodie anyway.

    Since you came into my life,
    I find I'm smiling...a lot more.
    Good things are even better
    and problems seem even smaller
    since I have you to share them with.
    Since you became a part of my days,
    it's hard for me to think of anything but you...
    When I'm not with you,
    I'm either remembering how much fun we had the last time
    or looking forward to the next time we'll be together.
    Since you came into my world,
    you've made such a difference...
    I like having you there,
    and I hope you'll stay
    for a long, long time.
