About me:
I am very, very good.

"If we are to create a society in which the people can directly control their lives, a society in which workers run the industries where they work, the process of self-management must emerge in self-management of mass organizations of working people. The self-managed mass organizations prefigure self-management of social production by workers and the direct self-governance of society by the mass of the people." - Tom Wetzel (?)

"The only interesting answers are those which destroy the questions." - Susan Sontag

You are The Sun

Happiness, Content, Joy.

The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.

Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.

The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the long dark night, Apollo to the Moon's Diana. A positive card, it promises you your day in the sun. Glory, gain, triumph, pleasure, truth, success. As the moon symbolized inspiration from the unconscious, from dreams, this card symbolizes discoveries made fully consciousness and wide awake. You have an understanding and enjoyment of science and math, beautifully constructed music, carefully reasoned philosophy. It is a card of intellect, clarity of mind, and feelings of youthful energy.

My score on The Greek Mythology Personality Test:

The Oracle
(33% Extroversion, 66% Intuition, 44% Emotiveness, 80% Perceptiveness)



Heuristic, detached, and analytical to a fualt, you are most like The Oracle. You are able to tackle any subject with a fine toothed comb, and you possess an ability to pinpoint nuances and shades of meaning that other people do not have and cannot understand. Accomplishment and realization of ideas are, for you, secondary to the rigorous exploration of ideas and questions -- you are, first and foremost, a theorist. You hate authority, convention, tradition, and under no circumstances do you accept a leadership role (although, you will gladly advise leadership when they're going astray, whether they want you to or not). Abstraction and generalities are your interests, details and particulars are usually inconsequential and uninteresting. You excel at language, mathematics and philosophy.

You are typically easy-going and non-confrontational until someone violates one of the very few principles that you deem sacred, at which point you can fly into a rage. Although you possess a much greater understanding of process and systems than the people around you, you are always conscious of the possibility that you've missed something or made a mistake. You don't tend to become attached to particular theories, and will immediately discard mistaken notions once they're revealed to be incorrect (but you don't tolerate iconoclasts who try to discredit validated theories through the use of fallacies and bad data). Despite being outwardly humble, you probably think of yourself as being smarter than most other people. That's because you are. In fact, in your dealings with people your understanding of their motives is so expansive that you know what they're going to say before they say it, and in world affairs, you usually know what is going to take place before it actually does. This ability would make you unbeatable in debates if only you were a little less pensive about your own conclusions, and a little more outgoing.

Famous people like you: Albert Einstein, Charles Darwin, Adam Smith, Thomas Jefferson, John McWhorter, Ramanujan, Marie Curie, Kurt Godel Stay clear of: Apollo, Icarus, Hermes, Aphrodite Seek out: Atlas, Prometheus, Daedalus



Link: The Greek Mythology Personality Test (OkCupid Free Online Dating)

You scored as Individualism. Individualism is a term used to describe a moral, political, or social outlook that stresses human independence and the importance of individual self-reliance and liberty. Individualists promote the unrestricted exercise of individual goals and desires. They oppose most external interference with an individual's choices - whether by society, the state, or any other group or institution.

Haha. I'm doing okay I suppose.

I was talking to a co-worker that was robbed at gun point recently. He kept talking about how we have "faith" that things go "as they should," that is, relatively smoothly and without catastrophe. He said he knew God was right there watching over him. Anyway, I quickly became detached (not without first agreeing with him about the absurdity of his condition) from the conversation, thinking about his predictable reaction to his world being turned upside down. It led me to thinking what gives us the right to "sponge away his horizon?" Ah, just some thoughts.
How have you been?

WELL i'd like to understand why people have morals too.

stop being in shropshire, god i'm bored. how was your adventure weekend or whatever it was? i have a new job, I am PA to Mr Berridge who apparently is a gastoenterologist, I appear to have an office to myself and a set of keys but no actual bastarding work to do. Still, I just wrote a good 500 words of m'book so it's nice to crack on with that I imagine.

No facebook :(
