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. EL DINERO PUEDE COMPRAR UNA CAMA, PERO NO EL SUEÑO. EL DINERO PUEDE COMPRAR UN LIBRO, PERO NO EL CONOCIMIENTO. EL DINERO PUEDE PAGAR UN MÉDICO, PERO NO LA SALUD. EL DINERO PUEDE COMPRAR UNA POSICIÓN, PERO NO EL RESPETO. EL DINERO PUEDE COMPRAR LA SANGRE, PERO ...

Chicken Menses

A friend of mine is an ovo-lactic vegetarian. This means that in addition to the plant matter he consumes, he also consumes dairy products and eggs. Dairy products I can accept, but eggs? … hmm, I wasn’t so sure - it sounds a bit like those vegetarians who say they eat chicken and fish. After all, the egg is an animal product. His answer was simple and satisfying, "Eggs are chicken menses. The hen will produce an egg whether she is fertilized or not. Unfertilized eggs are the discarded products of ovulation akin to menses in mammals." Image grabbed from here .

Le Pingouin is probably not what you think it is.

Discovered over the weekend that le pingouin is not a penguin, but a type of auk known as a Razorbill . The French translation for penguin is manchot . Apparently, this is a common error. Not surprising since many languages clearly have some sort of agreement on penguin: pingüinos (Spanish), pinguine (German), pikkewyn (Afrikaans), pinguino (Italian), pingwiny (Polish), pingvinfélék (Hungarian), pingüim (Portugese). Images nabbed from here and here .
