What Colour is your Brain?

Your Brain is Purple

Of all the brain types, yours is the most idealistic.
You tend to think wild, amazing thoughts. Your dreams and fantasies are intense.
Your thoughts are creative, inventive, and without boundaries.

You tend to spend a lot of time thinking of fictional people and places - or a very different life for yourself.

I'm blue-brained...but it might be different depending on my mood.
I'm not that mellow and my thoughts are sometimes fanciful and creative but I can be pragmatic and realistic most often.
I do think about my friends and my life an awful lot.

"Of all the brain types, yours is the most mellow.
You tend to be in a meditative state most of the time. You don't try to think away your troubles.
Your thoughts are realistic, fresh, and honest. You truly see things as how they are.

Did you think yours was even close?

You tend to spend a lot of time thinking about your friends, your surroundings, and your life."

Lovely and appropriate. I'm purple too.

I am the blue...
It is true at certain points. Sometimes I feel that I spend too much time for others and yet sometimes it drives me crazy when I want to help but I can't :p

MOI: I think it is about as true as astrology. I was not put off by my result, so I posted. It definitely can be true at times. Although, at the time I took the "test", I was expecting more of a grey fog, since I had done it shortly after getting up from a poor night's sleep. But it is true that I am an idealist - I instinctively expect people to always behave in the best possible manner.

ingrid: isn't it wonderful to find like minded people?

ancilla: like I commented to MOI, it is general enough to be true for most people at some time or other. If I had come up as blue brained, I would have accepted it just as easily as being purple brained.

I was green, which made me happy only b/c it is my favorite color!

Then, no doubt, you must be very pleased that St. Patrick's Day is coming up shortly.

richard, the description does sounds like u, according to my understanding so far. :)

btw, can u remove the 'word verification' requirement for commenting here.... it's a 'pain' to comment here, i need to try a few times for each comment to succeed. :(

bee: I hate the word verification as well, but every time I turn it off, I get tons of SPAM comments and it is a pain to then go around deleting them.

So ... for the time being it is going to stay. Maybe I should disable anonymous comments, but then that would have stopped "inner grace" from leaving a comment a few days ago.

hmmn.... people who are serious about commenting at your blog would usually sign up for a free blogger a/c (even if they don't wish to blog). So it's safe to turn off "word verification" and allow only those with blogger a/c to comment.

Just my thoughts...

bee: perhaps. But it appears "inner grace" has cancelled her account (certainly, her blog is no longer active and she does not seem to have a user account any more). I will see what I will do. It is true that I have very, very few anonymous comments (aside from SPAM).

[19September-2007 @ 17:11 EST: Revised preamble. This page still gets the most search hits: There is no Anthony de Croud. The e-mail is SPAM. I post things that pique my fancy at the moment. I like the 8 precepts, but the rest of the e-mail is junk. However, I thought it fair to post everything in its entirety. I did not write the e-mail. I did not forward the e-mail. I strongly encourage you not to forward it either. (I also encourage you to reply to whomever sent you the e-mail and tell them you don't appreciate getting junk mail.)] Received this in our e-mail (English translation follows): PRECEPTO CHINO SOBRE EL DINERO EL DINERO PUEDE COMPRAR UNA CASA, PERO NO UN HOGAR, EL DINERO PUEDE COMPRAR UN RELOJ, PERO NO EL TIEMPO.

Not quite Jacques Cousteau

I had bought some frozen calamari (squid) a while back and decided that it was time I actually did something with them. I thawed them out and cleaned them. I have never done this before and I am sure I was horribly slow and inefficient (it took me an hour to clean 2 pounds – 907g – worth). You begin by grasping the body and pulling out the head and guts. Then you squeeze out the guck inside and then peel off the skin (or film) on the surface. As a bonus, most of the skin comes off when you squeeze out the gunk. Finally you need to remove the spine. This was news to me, I thought that squid did not have any hard structure (aside from the beaky mouth). It is an interesting piece, when removed, it looks exactly like a piece of transparent plastic. Still haven’t decided what to make with it, but I will cook it tonight. Photo credits: Richard of Forbidden Planet [Note: today, blogger forced me to change over to the new blogger.

You may spend your life killing,

but you will not exhaust all your foes. If you quell your own anger, your real enemy will be slain. - Nagarjuna , a Buddhist philosopher, c150-250 CE He that will be angry for anything will be angry for nothing. - Sallust, Roman historian, 86-34 BCE. When we reject people in anger, or turn on them with the aim of inflicting pain, we damage our souls even more. - Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor, 121-180 CE (Meditations, Chapter 2) [For those who are curious where I've been ... erm ... mixture of a lack of enthusiasm, energy and time for blogging. But not to worry, I have had plenty of time to come down with Strep throat - twice. I am currently on my second round of antibiotics, apparently the first round wasn't wholly effective. Makes me wonder how 10 days was decided upon as the standard treatment duration because this is not the first time a round of antibiotics has failed to cure me and I have ended up going for a second round. I have also been busy reading about photograph...
