The Dr. Seuss Purity test...

Music of the moment: (don't laugh at me! I'm old school!) Much Dance 90's (Compilation, disc 2.)
Mood of the moment: Highly amused, nervous.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Go try it. This is the link.

I caught myself bursting into laughter quite a few times while reading the questions.

And no, I've never done it with a sturgeon, I'm not THAT fond of seafood. However, I have done it with a virgin. It was pretty dissapointing. *Shrugs*

I'm still wondering if the question "Have you done it with a fox?" is related to the animal or someone that was "a fox." I clicked it anyways, thinking it might just be the latter of the two choices.

Apparently I'm 60.0% pure, and 30% unique/weird... But I knew the second one already.

I heard back from the Electronic Media Design Program course coordinator from Langara. I have a meeting with him on Monday at 3:30 pm. I'm nervous as hell. I have to find two websites that I haven't created (that shouldn't be a problem considering the only one I have done was slapped together when I had absolutely NO experience with webdesign at all) After some hemming and hawing over what to pick, (Ah! Glorious indecision!) my first choice is Clubvibes, I'm still at a loss for my second one. Apparently it has to appeal to a select group as advertising, in a style that I would choose to "emulate." *Le Sigh*

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and I feel whimsical enough to toss in a few of my favourite quotes from the motion picture "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"


Monk:
And the Lord spoke, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out! Once the number three, being the third number be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thou foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

(The funniest thing about this quote, is that I saw the English crown jewel display at Metrotown a few weeks ago. They had the holy sphere in one of the displays, and when I saw it, all I could think of calling it was the "Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch." Damn Monty Python for corrupting me.)


King Arthur : I am your king.
Woman : Well I didn't vote for you.
King Arthur : You don't vote for kings.
Woman : Well how'd you become king then?
[Angelic music plays... ]
King Arthur : The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king.
Dennis : [interrupting] Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
Dennis : Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you.
Dennis : Oh but if I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor, just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away.
Dennis : Come see the violence inherent in the system. Help, help, I'm being repressed.
-------------------------------------
Knight 1 : We are now no longer the Knights who say Ni.
Knight 2: NI.
Other Knights : Shh...
Knight 1 : We are now the Knights who say..."Ekki-Ekki-Ekki-Ekki-PTANG. Zoom-Boing. Z'nourrwringmm.

Up until a few years ago I had no idea who Monty Python was. I still have only seen the Holy Grail and let me tell you..I watched it with a 3yr old and at the end we sat there and waited and waited for the ending. He has also an amazing memory and can carry on the lines from the movie verbatim. There are some amazing people in this world.
