Will somebody tell me why I take these dumb tests.


Tommorrow I head to Mordor. I may blog at Jerkous's house. Otherwise It'll be next week before I can update this thing.

I learned my lesson tonight. Like an idiot I was reading my wifes emails, and I came across a link attached to a story her Aunt sent her about a photograph of a ghost. Needless to say the picture scared the hell out of me. That's the last time I'm reading her emails. If your curious... Here's the link: http://home.attbi.com/~n9ivo/whatswrong.swf

In other news, the kids had their first day of school today. It was so nice to just hang around the house with everybody gone. Of course, I didn't have anything to do. I think I'll start going on my hikes again. I stopped going when the kids were out of school. But, now I have no excuse. I have more historical loging sites I want to find in the hills.

Now that the plans are set in stone I can report that I'm headed for Mordor this weekend. My reenactment club is putting on an event there. It should be fun. Besides, I need to get away for a short while.

Ho hum... More dumb tests...

I hate this one:

the internet junk 'how bad are you test' deems me: 64% bad!

You wish you were feared. Unfortunately your inner voice tells you to be good. Your badness is all show. You secretly watch the Muppet show. You get scared in the dark, and you probably still sleep with a stuffed animal.

This test pissed me off too:

the internet junk slacker test deems me: 105% slacker

you have little regard for yourself or others, as long as the cable is still hooked up to the tv and there is food lying around you are content, and the only good thing about a your bathtub is it holds the keg and ice!

Interesting.. You are a Brussel Sprout Quiet and reserved, you are not one to bust in on the social scene. A good book, or in this case an online test, suits you just fine. Oddly enough, the brussel sprout is a commonly disliked vegetable. Maybe it needs to get out there and party, don't you think? ©2002 http://internetjunk.co.uk

This one really made me laugh because it is so not true:

There is no hope. You are Very Redneck! You plague humanity with plaid and five-year-old John Deer merchandise. Huntin', fishin', shootin', and a drinkin' for you is a way of life, and for you, ignorance is bliss! The only literature to be found at your home is to be found in the outhouse, used for wiping your ass. See you at the tractor pull bubba! ©2002 http://internetjunk.co.uk

Now this one hit the nail on the head!!:

So close! You are an Almost-Geek! You love your sci-fi, computer and video games, and keeping up to date with the world of technology. Though you try and keep one foot in the real world, you may find people hard to deal with and prefer to keep most of your relationships virtual, but you do make the effort to interact with the real world. ©2002 http://internetjunk.co.uk

I'm happy as hell today... I got to reunite with my best friend from high school. My wife called and said he was having breakfast where she works and he wanted me to come and see him. I was a little apprehensive because the last I heard he was furious with me.

Needless to say we had a very pleasant visit. I got to meet his beautiful wife and his two sons. It really boosted my spirits to see him doing so well, and in such a good frame of mind. I come to find out that he was not ever really mad at me he was just disappointed that I couldn't come to his wedding cause he couldn't find me.

Anyway, my friend, we'll call him Hackum, looked really good for being an old man. I guess that's what skiing 6 months out of the year does for you. I think what I missed the most about him was his upbeat spirit about life and the future. He always seems positive about things, but will let you know if he doesn't like something. In high school I was always the frowner. But, he seemed to balance me out by getting me to do stuff and take chances. It's something I've missed in my life for the past 8 years. I look forward to rekindling our friendship again.

In other news, I found out yesterday that Tess's mother died this week. I know that despite the loss her death was a relief to her family. It makes me remember when my own mother passed. I will pray for her and her family. I know she watches them now.

I heard more news about my Armenian friend. To my relief he's not being deployed with the National Guard. He has to stay and face the pending charges. He is worried alot because this could stick to his military record. But, I know that he will be exhonorated. I may not have much faith in the system. However, I do believe, and pray, that justice will be served. He is a good man and does not deserve this.
