Finally I have found an internet based test that is fun AND whose result is actually true. According to this inkblot test I am:

"full of questions about life, people, and your own potential. You spend more time than others imagining the possibilities for your life – and you're open to things others are too afraid to consider. You have an almost physical need to know and do more. It's only through new experiences that you feel a greater understanding of yourself and the world. You also have a rebellious streak that shows up when you feel unable to truly influence the world or circumstances around you. Your appetite for novel experiences also shows an openness others don't have, but wish they did. Your psyche is very rich; the more you lern about it, the more you will understand who you really are."

Hmm.

This one also made me feel good about myself:

Apparently I have an IQ of 126, and as such...

"You are gifted with the natural fluency of a writer and the visual and spatial strengths of an artist. Those skills contribute to your creative and expressive mind.

Insightful linguists can take complex concepts and articulate them to just about anyone. You have a gift with words and insight into processes and the way people think. These talents enable you to explain things clearly to people. Helen Keller is a great example of an Insightful Linguist. Blind, deaf and mute, she was still able to put things together in her mind and to understand complex ideas. She could do that because she was able to conceptualise ideas internally. Though she could not literally see, she had the visual and spatial skills necessary to understand patterns on an abstract level. She learned to read, write and ultimately became a writer on issues of social justice."

As you can see, I clearly have too much time on my hands. However, I also have the worst sore throat I have ever had and am trying not to talk to people.

This one says I should be a Libra - the same as John Lennon. And Eminem. I disagree.

On a completely unrelated note, spare a thought for my mate RMB, who occasionally posts here. The week after next he is going to a selection conference in the hope of being selected to become a priest! (Now now, Chees'm, there's no need to be rude...) I know some (most?) of you don't "do" religion, but he would make an absolutely brilliant vicar, so do think of/pray for him next week :-)

Right, off to OD on strepsils.
