Sandwish

Mayonaisse and Mustard
On a sandwich bread.

Mayonaisse and Mustard!
On a sandwich bread.

No one can rest and watch the television
Until roast beef and cheese, together
On a sandwich bread

I loves you Porgy.

Every 2 years since December 2005 I’ve taken an online NEO IPIP Personality Study. It’s a 250+ question test available online that measures you against the Big Five personality inventory. I blogged my results in 2008 as well.

This image shows some interesting changes in the test results over the last two years. I’ll get into the detailed analysis after the jump. » Read the rest of this entry «

A poem by Ogden Nash entitled ‘My Dream’.

This is my dream,
It is my own dream,
I dreamt it.
I dreamt that my hair was kempt.
Then I dreamt that my true love unkempt it.

“…Indeed, the saddest thing of all in America is probably the fate of most of its teenagers. For at sixteen or seventeen, no matter how oppressive the Corporate State, there is still a moment when life is within their grasp. There are a few years when they pulse to music, know beaches and the sea, value what is raunchy, wear clothes that express their bodies, flare against authority, seek new experience, know how to play, laugh, and feel, and cherish one another. But it is a short, short road from Teensville to Squaretown; soon their senses have been dulled, their strength put under restraint, their minds lobotomized; bodies still young, cut off from selves, walk the windowless, endless corridors of the Corporate State.”

Charles A. Reich, The Greening of America
