my monster name (yeah, really, my MONSTER!)



Your Monster Profile


Psychotic Warrior (see the quiz below where I scored as River Tam--sorta 'splains everything...)

You Feast On: Lasanga (with MEAT, please)

You Lurk Around In: The Empire State Building (my 2nd fave building!)

You Especially Like to Torment: Republicans (Hee!)


ok, now will somebody please stop me before I take another of these darned tests!


my dirty little IQ

Your IQ Is 180

Your Logical Intelligence is Average

Your Verbal Intelligence is Genius

Your Mathematical Intelligence is Exceptional

Your General Knowledge is Exceptional

well, those of you who know me were always aware of the logic issues...
so, I'll dedicate the remainder of the day to raising that area of my quotient. that should do it, right?


results of my 3-question personality test...

Your Personality Is

Idealist (NF)


You are a passionate, caring, and unique person.
You are good at expressing yourself and sharing your ideals.

You are the most compassionate of all types and connect with others easily.
Your heart tends to rule you. You can't make decisions without considering feelings.

You seek out other empathetic people to befriend.
Truth and authenticity matters in your friendships.

In love, you give everything you have to relationships. You fall in love easily.

At work, you crave personal expression and meaning in your career.

With others, you communicate well. You can spend all night talking with someone.

As far as your looks go, you've likely taken the time to develop your own personal style.

On weekends, you like to be with others. Charity work is also a favorite pastime of yours.


Oh, I am just too frellin' good to believe; is this me? this can't be me! this is not me: this used to be ME, but now must be alternate universe sissun who keeps taking my stuff [and *that little witch* still has my damned boots too!]


What's your theological worldview?


Now, this one tracks a little differently than the one I took earlier regarding my religious bent; and this one makes more sense to *me*.


You scored as Emergent/Postmodern.

You are Emergent/Postmodern in your theology. You feel alienated from older forms of church, you don't think they connect to modern culture very well. No one knows the whole truth about God, and we have much to learn from each other, and so learning takes place in dialogue. Evangelism should take place in relationships rather than through crusades and altar-calls. People are interested in spirituality and want to ask questions, so the church should help them to do this.

Classical Liberal


68%

Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan

Charismatic/Pentecostal

What's my religious fit: yet another internet quiz result

You fit in with:
Spiritualism



Your ideals are mostly spiritual, but in an individualistic way. While spirituality is very important in your life, organized religion itself may not be for you. It is best for you to seek these things on your own terms.


60% spiritual.
40% reason-oriented.

Take this quiz at QuizGalaxy.com



So, given the results of *this* little test, it'll come as no big surprise to you when you read my earlier post: 'ligion, and all that jazz, where I expressed my concerns about me and my church...but, ya know, at least I add up to 100%; and this is all just someone else's interpretation of things. I and I will work out my destiny with things religious.

yeah, I took another one ....maybe I lied?

Your Blog Should Be Purple


You're an expressive, offbeat blogger who tends to write about anything and everything.
You tend to set blogging trends, and you're the most likely to write your own meme or survey.
You are a bit distant though. Your blog is all about you - not what anyone else has to say.

Now, I say, why not? it's my damn blog! I may invite comments, but doesn't mean it'll change me...

So, I took this internet quiz today...

You scored as River Tam.

If you've seen the movie "Serenity" or watched the short-lived series "Firefly" on the TV (one of my faves, and thus, of course, cancelled!), you will either think: "no way! "or "I always knew that about you..."


The Fugitive. You are clever and dangerous, which is a nasty combination. The fact you are crazy too just adds to your charm. They did bad things to you, but you know their secrets. They will regret how they made you.

Based on the scores I see below, there's a whole bunch of us dangerous MoFo's walkin' around; you better watch out world!

River Tam: 81%

The Operative: 69%

Zoe Alleyne Washburne: 69%

Kaylee Frye: 69%

Inara Serra: 69%

Shepherd Derrial Book: 56%

Simon Tam: 56%

Capt. Mal Reynolds: 56%

Hoban 'Wash' Washburne: 56%

Jayne Cobb: 50%

So, which Serenity character are you?


well, this was cute and fun, though I was hoping to test out as Jayne Cobb or Wash. Anyway, not gonna spend more time with this though--and don't send me any links either!

one more reason I love the web . . .

I ran into (read that as clicked my mouse a few times) someone of my generation who had similiar thoughts about Star Wars, Darth Vader, the Force and the Dark Side. And this guy's a preacher man (Hee!)

Rev. Mark D. Roberts has written a 13-part (!) series in his blog about the relationship of the force to the Holy Spirit and choice in man. [apparently there are people who like to run their mouth and type their thoughts as much as I do--dog with a bone...]
I've only read up through part 8, and to paraphrase what Naviblu32 said to me earlier, this man requires much time and thought.

I love it!

Given that the Rev. Mark and I are of an age, I am inclined to think that we in our particular generation are given to making connections between anything and everything we see and read and are able to find the lesson in all the stuff life throws at us. I am particularly pleased to know that a pastor or two are out there using something as ignored and maligned as SciFi to get the message out--and he's using the web to help! And he's encouraging other pastors to get on board and start Blogging for God!

Did I mention that I *love* the web?

One Good Thing




We are nearing the end of Heil Hitler Month (that special time of year devoted to all sorts of programming about the Third Reich, the EVILS OF HITLER, The Men Who Surrounded Hitler, How America the Beautful Put this Bunch to Pasture and Liberated all the Concentration Camps (not!), and loads of money shots of his dead, burned, bullet-hole-in-the-head body (and that of poor, simple Eva Braun too)--this last is certainly shown to assure us all that not only is he very dead, he is surelyreallytruly dead.

As is ususal for me, I taped and viewed as much of this stuff as my dimestore TIVO could absorb, and finally, sated to the gills as any good fangrrrl could be at this time, I began to wonder: what new thing did I learn about the little man this time around?

Well, there were two things:
  1. if someone had just cared enough (or was fearless enough) to just keep the man on his medication, our bi-polar Hitler, just like Billy Chenowith, crying for his sweet Claire, would have been as meek as Mary's little lamb;
  2. and apparently the one good thing the world gained from this bad, bad, sick and deluded regime was the Volkswagon!
  3. (well, not #3, 'cause I said there were 2 things) some would count America's "capture" of the famed rocket scientist, Dr. Werner von Braun, (without whom the USofA would *never* have made one small step for Man...before the Russians!) as a good thing too--but then, that's a whole 'nother post!

Yes, folks (volks...), the familiar "Herbie the Love" bug is Hitler's (and the indefatigable Herr Porsche's) great gift to the free (and not so free) world.

TA DA.

Now, here are some folks on the other side of the ocean who clearly agree--
