2008 Presidential Candidate Matching Quiz

Uh... who? Also, no wonder I can't choose who to vote for. Seems the only viable candidates at this point are Edwards, Obama, and Clinton for the dems, and Romney, Huckabee, McCain, and possibly Giuliani for the reps. I can't vote for a fundie like Romney or Huckabee, Edwards has a bit of a greasy trial-lawyer vibe to him, and Clinton seems like more of the same. Anyone is better than Bush, but I'm going to have to say it's Obama or McCain for me. I am liking Obama more and more lately, and I could live with McCain, which is more than I can say for the other two Republican front-runners.

What Sort of Hat Are You? I am a Bowler Hat.I am a Bowler Hat.


I'm very proper, often politically correct, precise and dapper. I generally look down on the masses, but I usually try not to let it show. What Sort of Hat Are You?

Dear Santa...

Dear Santa,

This year I've been busy!

In April I pulled over and changed [info]ladymace's flat tire (15 points). Last month I gave [info]grrm a Dutch Oven (-10 points). In June I punched [info]ch0ng in the arm (-10 points). Last Thursday I saved a busload of nuns in Angola (326 points). Last Sunday I helped [info]sandormeansme hide a body (-173 points).

Overall, I've been nice (148 points). For Christmas I deserve a red Radio-Flyer wagon!

Sincerely,
adamjaskie

You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

Pop? Is that some weird word for Vernors?
23rd-Aug-2006 02:48 pm - Interesting meme
Go to Wikipedia and look up your birthday (excluding the year). List three neat facts, two births and one death in your journal, including the year.

August 11

Three Facts:

1. In the Battle of Thermopylae of 480 BC an alliance of Greek city-states fought the invading Persian army in the mountain pass, Thermopylae. Vastly outnumbered, the Greeks held back the Persian advance for seven days. Leonidas, the Spartan King commanding the army, held up the enemy in one of the most famous last stands of history. The resistance of the Spartan-led army offered Athens the invaluable opportunity to make battle preparations and decisively defeat the Persians at the battles of Salamis.

2. 1966 - John Lennon holds a press conference in Chicago apologizing for stating that the Beatles were "more popular than Jesus".

3. 1984 (The year I was born, actually) - United States President Ronald Reagan, during a voice check for a radio broadcast remarks "My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes".


Two Births:

1. 1933 - Jerry Falwell, American preacher
2. 1950 - Steve Wozniak, American computer pioneer

One Death:

1. 480 BC - Leonidas, King of Sparta (does that count as using the same one twice?)

76% Intellectual, 17% Impetuous, and 47% Trusting
Oh, man, but you are SO doomed. Read this if you don't believe me.

You are a thinker...are you ever a thinker...so it is no surprise you scored high on Intellectual. There is no problem, large or small, that you do not want to think about and discuss until you have a stranglehold on it. Obviously, at times, this thinking and assessing will go on so long that the actual point of what you are trying to decide gets lost and you end up not acting at all.

This propensity for long, drawn-out analysis of your problems is compounded by a low score for Impetuous. So not only do you seek to understand a problem in full before acting, you take your time in doing so. You have probably never done anything spontaneous in your life and if you have, it probably backfired on you reinforcing your view that it is always better to think long and hard about all the possible outcomes of all possible courses of action before acting.

Finally, you bear this burden alone as indicated by our low score for Trusting. You rarely seek out the help and opinions of other people as you struggle to understand everything about your life, and if you do, you do not really give their opinions as much weight as you give to your own.

Oddly enough, your life may not actually be a mess, and if it is not, then you had better hope that nothing unexpected comes along to mess things up. So long as things are going well, you are content and probably quite successfully happy. But as soon as you find yourself in a difficult situation, things only go from bad to worse as you try to figure out a way to get out of the mess you've found yourself in without any bad consequences for yourself. You are so concerned with the larger issues and making sure that right prevails, that you will probably sacrifice yourself to your high-minded quest.

What do you look like? Ask google!

Google the phrase "(Your name) looks like" and find the best three from the first page of results. Don't forget to put it in quotes, otherwise it won't work. Repost this.

Adam looks like a modern day Aristotle.
Adam looks like he is about to headbutt the wall out.

26th-Mar-2006 03:48 am - Today was really tiring.
I got out of bed really late because my alarm clock has broken and I cannot afford a new one at the moment.

I feel unusual because my antidepressants are making me hairy.

Last night I had to finish my term paper on the history of pre-communist Russian society. I focussed on the needs of women. I think it's ok, but if I don't pass this I'll lose my scholarship.

I want to tell the world to get fucked.

I am making this journal friends only because I don't want the world to read what I'm writing, even though I'm posting it on the internet.

Today, I got a digital camera! Yes! Here's ten thousand photographs of my cat.

I want to say thanks to the world for absolutely fucking nothing! You all suck. I feel so alone, no one ever reads this journal, or even comments to let me know that I'm not suffering alone. It's cold here, and I want to die, but I cannot figure out how many of you to take with me when I go.

I went to the doctor yesterday, and he said I have bipolar disorder, and a healthy imagination.

You should all do this quiz! It's amazingly accurate. You just put in your name and birthday, and it will tell you what job you'll do when you grow up.
