There were questions I couldn't answer.

Basically it assumed you were in the US and had grown up in the US, from what I could tell. :-/

I scored 30%, BTW.

Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed

Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please

I can think of a lot more...

1. You organize your entire house according to the color spectrum on the album cover of Star Trek The Motion Picture.

2. You save every single E-mail, important post, or other electronic transaction to the Hard Drive, indexed, dated and filed away by directory per person. :)

3. You have an entire collection of Stuffed Animals, all catalogued in Access, by description, name, type, date bought, company made by, etc. etc.

4. You have all your books arranged by Wars and other topics, i.e. Civil War, WW1, WW2, Vietnam, Korea, and by Movie Tie Ins, Humor, Titanic, Sci Fi, Star Trek, Star Wars, Jack Higgins, etc.

5. You still have an autographed napkin which was autographed by the Darth Vader persona (person playing him) at the local Burger Chef.

6. You name all your computers and other peripherals, also things like cars, etc.

Hmmmmm want any more? And yes, all the above are true about Owls, and much much more! ;)

Well, THAT would've bumped me up a bit.

Watching robot wars.

Also:
Watching Robot Wars live.
Being on Robot Wars.
Being on a winning team at Robot Wars.
Being on Battlebots.
Being on a winning team at Battlebots.
Being a techie at Battlebots.
Being a builder and sponsor at Steel Conflict.
Being a judge and sponsor at Botbash.

All, of course, due to the invitations of a good friend--no skill involved. But still fun and probably worth points. :)

I was one of the original authors of VB, and *I* wouldn't use VB for a text
