ok… that’s so brilliantly on target, it’s nearly true.

If you yelled continuously for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you will have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.

Scotto, you’re an Architect
For you, the world is like one giant puzzle, just waiting to be solved. In your undying quest for the truth, you’re best at finding solutions to complex problems. Lucky for all of us, though, you love to share your brilliant thoughts. Your keen analytical skills and understanding of others makes you a vital player in the think tank. You thrive on the collaborative problem-solving process, could trouble shoot for NASA, and won’t rest until the questions are answered. The world could use a few more like you.

Who’s like you:
Sigmund Freud

Likely careers:
Psychologist, lawyer, market researcher, military strategist, PR strategist

Your motivation rating: 5-7

You’re Balanced. You know how to juggle your personal and professional life, without getting too caught in the middle. You’re not married to you job, and your family and friends probably appreciate that fact. You put your best effort into succeeding at work without letting it take over your life.

Your leadership style rating: 1-4

You’re a Traditionalist. You take baby steps toward new ideas and prefer to follow the tried and true methods. You have a skeptical mind and know better than rushing into untested waters. Changes should be implemented slowly and carefully. Put in a position of leadership, you’re likely to take a cautious and democratic approach and make sure that everyone is satisfied.

Your conflict style rating: 8-10I disagree, but only to a point.

You’re an Aggressor. You’re the charging bull of the office arena, ready to make a fight out of any issue. You tend to say what’s on your mind, no matter what the circumstance. Although people tend to respect your forceful opinions, confrontation is not always the best path to problem solving. A little diplomacy goes a long way in office politics.

I’ve never really given Newt a middle name. The closest I’ve ever come is to give him a middle initial… J. (True cartoon tradition…as in Bullwinkle J Moose, Bartholomew J Simpson, etc.)

So it comes down to this… I’m looking to see what a popular middle name for ol’ Newtie might be. (Before, as sweetalyssm says, the other cats ask, and he doesn’t know what to say…we don’t want Newt laughed at!)

Well, my thought of going out with my brother today are dashed upon the rocks of the ft lauderdale airshow… so many people, so much traffic… by the time we could get together, it would be time to leave.

So, instead, I’m going to go see The Caveman’s Valentine.

And, if it’s not the thing, then I’ll hit Mummy 2, electric boogaloo.

Ok…mild headache, so I’m not in the mood to read bucky right now, or write anything either… Newt’s all played out, and my beloved isn’t on-line…

What to do?

I guess lunch, I’m not too hungry, but maybe it’ll fend off my noggin-ache.

What’s with the remakes and sequels? Rollerball? Americam Pie 2? Rush Hour 2? Crocodile Dundee 3?? I hear rumors of Jason X, and Stuart little 2, as well..I guess it’s easer to milk a franchise then come up with risky creative thought.

Don’t get me wrong.. I’m all for the New Planet of the Apes flick..jay and silent bob strike back.and the Mummy thing, but I’m more enthused about the new stuff that’s coming out… Shreck, for example. 🙂

Oh, I know! I’ll do a poll!

Time out from chores…. ack!!!

Who put the air and sea show on cinco de mayo? Aieeee much traffic.

ok.. what’s on my plate for today?

laundry done, including nice fresh bedding… ahhh… tempting. Bonus, got walkies in while the laundry ran… clocked 45 min of solid walk/brisk walk in the fresh air and sunshine. 🙂

What’s left?

general Clutter removal (big time… I’ve been a slob this week)

litterbox duty

time out for fun!

newty play time

Time in for chores again!

vacuum

Chores end

aok time?

Sweetie lovin’ time?

Get some more bucky fuller reading in.

ah well, enough procrastinating, back to work, Scotto!

Hooboy…

Found out how to post messages in the past or the future… without them bubbling to the present…

http://www.livejournal.com/dev/applet/

allows for it by checking the backdate function, so *NO MORE POSTS* from my three month old written journals.

(I was posting them private, then unpravating after about 50 or so of my messages went by, to spare folks ‘flood from the past’.)
