Very True Things
“He talks to himself sometimes because he’s the only one who understands what he’s saying.”

Archive for February 12th, 2006


I’m officially middle aged now as today I wore novelty socks bought for me by my wife.

However, they were Welsh Dragon socks and Wales did beat Scotland today (they seemed to be overpowering the Scots in the parts I saw, though the last Scottish try looked like a classic from what I saw on the news) so I see a new superstition in the forming.

Via [info]sharikkamur and ignoring my obvious lack of at least one vital qualification:-

Which Mythological Goddess am I?

Maeve

Indeed, you are 70% erudite, 87% sensual, 70% martial, and 62% saturnine. Maeve was once thought of as a historical queen but is now considered part of the Celtic mythology. She is usually depicted as either a winged sprite, a beautiful elf, or a human woman dressed in only the finest robes.

She was said to carry two tree-dwelling creatures on either of her shoulders; the squirrel and the raven, resembling her closeness to nature and mysticism. She also frequented the area which was said to hold the entrance to the Otherworld, which is now called the Cave of the Cats.

Maeve is known for an insatiable sexual appetite and boasting openly of sleeping with thirty men in one day. Once she meets the hero Fergus Mac Roich, ‘Son of Great Horse’ who himself has a sexual appetite large enough to satisfy her, the tale says that ‘She used to know thirty men every day or go with Fergus once.’ So that’s good for her. ;-)

She is most famous as a protagonist in the story of the “Cattle Raid of Cooley”, which tells of another dispute between her and her husband, the Connaught chieftain Ailill, with whom she would constantly quarrel.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 21% on erudite
You scored higher than 67% on sensual
You scored higher than 84% on martial
You scored higher than 56% on saturnine

70% erudition is only higher than 21% of other people? Too many smart folks taking this test…

I couldn’t decide between the option at the tie breaker question so here’s both my results.

You scored as CPO Galen Tyrol. You never wanted to be a glamorous Viper pilot. You are happy knowing that without you to fix their birds, they cannot fly. You fell in love with the wrong girl, but is that so wrong? Maybe, but you don’t really care.

You scored as Capt. Lee Adama (Apollo). You have spent your life trying to live up to and impress your Dad, shame he never seemed to notice. You are a stickler for the rules. But in matters of loyalty and honour you know when they have to be broken.
