2. Here ya go:
Edited on Fri Mar-30-07 07:15 AM by NC_Nurse
1. Sadly, my car. Followed by walking if I can - I have bad knees, so no biking. We don't have subways and I'm not fond of the bus.
2. Anatomy and Physiology
3. yes.
4. Every day, but not narcotics. Narcotics maybe a few days a month when my back or knees really hurt.
5. I don't remember what it is.
6. 8. I was in the "gifted and talented" class in High School, I was in the top 7 in my nursing school class, never studied for the boards and passed easily. I pick up stuff pretty quickly.
But I have no discipline so I'll never move up the ladder. I don't want to be a paper pusher. Blah.

on edit: Yes, I do like your avatar! May you and Rockit have a beautiful life together. :hug:

5. Answers
1. Walking. In fact, I'm off to the gym in a few to practice!

2. Renaissance History. I had an awesome Prof who was also a movie buff; that made for some really great films as teaching aids.

3. Yes. I'm a throwback to the days when casual Friday meant a nice pair of Jeans with an normal tshirt or oxford-sans comments of any kind.

4. I am on a standing script for medical reasons. I tend not to take them as often as I should. It is my pet peeve that so many people post about Vicodin as if it were a recreational drug...when it isn't.

5. I suppose, I really can't see it. :shrug:

6. I don't usually answer questions about what I think about myself. I leave that up to other people. They are usually more than happy to oblige.

6. OK.
1. I've wanted to get a bike for a while now. I'll say biking.
2. Byzantine History
3. No. But "Fuck Yogi" would be funnier.
4. Almost never, even when prescribed. I took them for one day following a recent operation, and that was it.
5. Shadow puppets are fun. :)
6. 7.5. I lose points for a short attention span, poor short-term memory, and an occasional lack of common sense.

24. You may just wish that you never asked that. Eh, without further ado, Random_Australian!
Edited on Fri Mar-30-07 08:09 AM by Random_Australian
1. What is your favorite form of transportation? (subway, bus, bike, your car) My feets!

2. If you went to College what was your favorite class? I still go to university, and my favourite class is probably chemistry. Physics is good too. And I really like math. And the extra chemistry I am doing. :)

3. Do you think wearing a shirt that says "fuck yoga" is inappropriate for the workplace? (casual work environment) Even saying fuck seems to be inappropriate. You shouldn't assume that your coworkers get your jokes, or that your jokes have any taste. However, if "fuck yoga" was an advertisement for something really, really neat, it might not be so bad. :)

4. How often do you take painkillers? Almost never. I am rarely in any kind of pain that can be cured with painkillers.

5. Do you like my avatar? I can't see it. I will edit in an answer. :)

Now that I have seen it, I hope only that you like it. My own judgement is that I'm busy fighting off hallucinations & stuff, so I can't really tell you much about it.

6. On a scale of one to 10, how bright do you think you are? Whats your reasoning behind your score?

Bright in what way?

Am I a sunny and happy person to be around? Well, yes!

Am I actually happy? Nope, not by a fucking long shot. Seems my latest cry for help went unheeded in that thread about 'pictures that represent how you are', but oh well. Eh.

Am I intelligent? Well, there are two answers to this:

My rational side says that this is indeed the case, given the number of people who have walked up to me to tell me how impressively clever I am, given that I'm comfortably doing several advanced subjects in university, but most of all given various things I won't talk about, I think it would be irrational to think that I was average. At least it seems that if average people were to have that happen to them, then it would be likely that *I* would have said to someone. However, my rational side also considers intelligence to be reification, so that's where that ends.

To keep accuracy, which was unfortunately deemed to be more important than self esteem, my emotional side thinks I'm a moron. Keeps me, uh, accurate. Doesn't do much for keeping my mind healthy though!

30. Answers:
1) Train
2) Logic
3) Yup
4) Never
5) It's sweet. Congratulations!
6) I don't believe in traditional measures of intellect. Intellect is often viewed as 'smarts', but that excludes the vast majority of what the brain can do. People who are good at dance or music have a form of intellect that is not traditionally viewed as 'smarts'. Social skills are also a form of 'smarts'. I find it interesting that some people seem to have their skills evenly distributed among all the various forms of intellect, while some seem to be focus in certain areas, but everybody in the end seems to have only a certain amount of points if you will to distribute among the various forms of smarts. So, traditional views of 'I'm smarter than x% of the population' are in reality totally bogus. However, in the interest of some sort of answer, I'll say I view my intellectual strength is mostly spatial in nature. I have a phenomenal spacial memory and remarkable spacial visualization skills. My worst skill is probably in 'body' intellect. I can hardly walk without crashing into things.

36. Here goes:
1. What is your favorite form of transportation? (subway, bus, bike, your car)

If I'm being practical, it is my car because I live in the middle of boo-foo-no-place. Public transportation is not an option for us hicks. If I'm talking about what I enjoy most it would be riding horseback--which was not an option in the question anyway...



2. If you went to College what was your favorite class?

Theatre Production


3. Do you think wearing a shirt that says "fuck yoga" is inappropriate for the workplace? (casual work environment)

Depends on where you live and the attitudes there. I'll tell you that here in conservative Central Illinois that shirt would be a problem for a lot of folks. I guess I'd have to say that if it works for YOU then go for it otherwise save it for a day off.



4. How often do you take painkillers?

Not terribly often--about once a month, I'd guess.



5. Do you like my avatar?

I love what it represents. On a practical level, it is a little too small for maximum visual effect--but it is an avitar and it isn't gonna BE too big--ya know?

6. On a scale of one to 10, how bright do you think you are? Whats your reasoning behind your score?

I'm probably someplace behind a russet potato on the IQ scale. That realization was enormously liberating for me because suddenly all those years of being told I was not working to my abilities became a misdiagnosis. My ego swelled accordingly.


Happy Friday!!!



Laura

51. OK
1. What is your favorite form of transportation? (subway, bus, bike, your car)

Well, I was going to say bike or kayak...but aliberalsailor is so right. I LOVE trains...no trains here in the Keys though...so I'll go with bike.

2. If you went to College what was your favorite class?

Psych major, but I love anthropology, which was my minor and always my favorite. History also.

3. Do you think wearing a shirt that says "fuck yoga" is inappropriate for the workplace? (casual work environment)

I really don't like the word "fuck", so yes.

4. How often do you take painkillers?

Aspirin for a headache, which I rarely get. Ibuprofen for cramps, which come around right on schedule every damn 28 days.

5. Do you like my avatar?

I think it's cool. (And good on ya for rising above the snark.)

6. On a scale of one to 10, how bright do you think you are? Whats your reasoning behind your score?

Well, I think I'm pretty bright...and so does my mom. Reasoning; high GRE scores, IQ, SAT etc...however, actually I'm just a good test taker.

but you and I actually have a lot in common. I went to grad school in the same field as you, but then switched to school psych because I couldn't stand the yuppies...:rofl:

But I'm a lot older than you and am not in the field at all anymore; life takes you where it will. Enjoy the ride!

53. these are my answers
1) Car unless I have to go into the city for the day then I'd take the train in.

2) Undergrad I'd say Political Theory. Post graduate would be Accounting Principles.

3) Yes, people should still dress somewhat professionally even though it's considered "casual friday"

4) Anymore it's at least 3 times a week.

5) yes, congratulations to both of you.

6) I'd say maybe 7-8, but sometimes I'd rather be a 5 with common sense.

2. I'm not sure what my favorite class was. I enjoyed many of them and hated many others. :shrug:

3. Wearing clothing that says Anything is usually inappropriate for the workplace, but "fuck yoga" is offensive.

4. I take painkillers daily. :(

5. Yes, I like your avatar. :)

6. How bright I am depends on several factors. Pain, painkillers, and how much sleep I've been able to get in the past few nights.

:hi:

1. What is your favorite form of transportation? (subway, bus, bike, your car) I love to take the train. I haven't done it in a while, but it allows me to see the countryside without actually having to drive. :D

2. If you went to College what was your favorite class? Modern anthropology. :bounce:

3. Do you think wearing a shirt that says "fuck yoga" is inappropriate for the workplace? (casual work environment) Nope. Not unless your company is named Fuck Yoga. :P

4. How often do you take painkillers? I only take ibuprofen when I need it, which is rare. It's usually for a headache but sometimes for menstrual cramps.

5. Do you like my avatar? Yes. :)

6. On a scale of one to 10, how bright do you think you are? Whats your reasoning behind your score? 9.5. Maybe it's because almost all the people I encounter have little or no common sense, but I base that on many years of working with people from all walks of life. I've learned money does NOT guarantee common sense and that having a Ph. D. also does not guarantee intelligence. :P :rofl: I grasp concepts very quickly, and I'm more worldly that most people I encounter.

3. Do you think wearing a shirt that says "fuck yoga" is inappropriate for the workplace? (casual work environment) Yeah but it is funny

4. How often do you take painkillers? I take Aleve every day, Vicodin about once a month. Chronic pain sucks (and I'd wear THAT on a t-shirt!)

104. I'll give it a try

1. Hard to say what my favorite is: walking, maybe, though among nonwalking forms of transport a motorcycle is probably number one, but I also like boats of various kinds and cars do have their benefits.

2. Not sure -- I went to university a long, long time. In my earlier years it'd be a toss-up between geology and black American history (worth noting that this was not a US university and, also, with the British degree structure I was not required to take humanities but did so because I was interested in them and because I wanted to avoid taking any more boring genetics classes). In my (US) PhD program it may have been a seminar class on scientific communication, perhaps the rare useful class in my PhD program, though I also greatly enjoyed two ecological/zoological classes directly in line with my research interests.

3. Probably only if you work in a tai chi studio. Actually, probably not then, either...not exceedingly Taoist, unless you mean that the yoga is oriented toward making love.

4. Never. Almost. I rarely get headaches and it's even more rare that I take OTC analgesics for 'em -- most have no noticeable effect on me (thusly it surprised me when the anesthesia they used on me after my most severe motorcycle crash kicked in quite nicely, while I was telling them that it probably wouldn't work). I took hydrocodone (along with barbiturates) when I was badly sick in October, but that's the first I've taken since that accident 23 years ago. Not a fan of painkillers. Even without the example of the real Elvis to stand as a warning.

5. Not sure. Still trying to figure out what's happening in it. :D

6. Bright? Close to 10 in intellect and flexibility of thinking, probably, but some of my decisions would downgrade my 'brightness' quite severely. Stupid is as stupid does, and ditto for the bright side.

106. Oh, yes


I like it. :hug:

In the small version it looked like the ring-bearing finger on the left hand (your fiancée?) was a cut-off finger and the other (your) ring finger was a disjointed digit. :D

I like it.

And I like the rings.

109. Here are my answers...
1. Horseback

2. Voice and Speech

3. It would depend on varying factors (ie the job and workplace environment itself; are you dealing with the public? etc)

4. I don't. I'll head to the chiropractor or acupuncturist before I take a painkiller.

5. I do. It's beautiful! :)

6. Probably about a 7. I'm more of an intuitive type, rather than a pure thinker.

116. OK...
1. What is your favorite form of transportation? (subway, bus, bike, your car)
I prefer to walk in nice weather and if the distance is realistic, but I must also admit I LOVE road cruising. I also love to fly.
2. If you went to College what was your favorite class?
Introductory neurochemistry. Great prof, really tough grader, passionate about his subject, learned a lot. Loved it.
3. Do you think wearing a shirt that says "fuck yoga" is inappropriate for the workplace? (casual work environment)
Yes.
4. How often do you take painkillers?
Maybe two-three times a month (ibuprofen); have had a few scrips for pain meds with a couple of bad teeth and some minor surgeries.
5. Do you like my avatar?
Crap, I didn't notice it before I hit reply, and it does not show up now! Don't know what it is, sorry!
6. On a scale of one to 10, how bright do you think you are? Whats your reasoning behind your score?
Oh, I don't know...depends on what I might be bright ABOUT! Some stuff, 3 or 4. Some stuff, 14-15! Main reason I would score myself low is in areas of low skill/knowledge (which can be acquired). Main reason I would score myself high is insane curiosity and desire for continuous learning, and the ability to apply my talents productively.

117. It's almost Saturday morning
...but I'm bored, so...



1. What is your favorite form of transportation?

This 'un:

2. If you went to College what was your favorite class?

Journalism; specifically, the newspaper lab. It was a three-unit class, but all the editors treated it like a full-time job, even though the paper came out only every other week.

3. Do you think wearing a shirt that says "fuck yoga" is inappropriate for the workplace? (casual work environment)

Need more information. But, if it's okay with the honchos, why should I complain?

4. How often do you take painkillers?

Daily, lately. Been doin' a lotta work outside and it's beatin' up my back, legs and shoulders.

5. Do you like my avatar?

Yeah, I do. What I really like is what it means. :hug:

Weird, too — Rockit's hands look very much like mine.

6. On a scale of one to 10, how bright do you think you are? Whats your reasoning behind your score?

I dunno. Eight, maybe? I generally score fairly well on intelligence tests, but I sometimes think I might appear to be smarter than I am because I can express myself well. But, like anyone else, there're areas in which I'm pretty smart and others that make me go :silly:. So it's all relative.

131. Good Saturday Morning, lioness... I wasn't able to answer your questions yesterday.
1. I actually like travelling by boat. Don't get to do it very often, but when I can, it's wonderful. I enjoy taking the ferry from Port Angeles, Washington to Victoria, B.C. a couple of times a year. On a sunny Spring day, it's delightful; the sunshine, the cool breeze on the upper deck, the blue waters of the Strait of Juan De Fuca, the snowy Cascade Mountains in the distance, and of course, looking forward as always to visiting the beautiful Canadian city of Victoria. B-)

2. I took a college course called "The History of the Cold War", back in the Spring of 1989. Day by day it became more of a current events class. What with the dismantling of the Iron Curtain in Hungary and Austria, the pro-democracy rallies in Tianenmen Square in China, the progressing of Russian perestroika under Gorbachev, and the gaff-laden but relatively benign Presidency of Bush Sr., it just seemed to be an exciting and promising time to be alive. Plus, I got a 4.0 out of the class. :-)

3. I don't think any workplace is an appropriate place to wear a shirt that says "fuck" on it. I'm no prude as you well know, lioness, but a little decorum...

4. Every couple of weeks when I get a headache.

5. Sure. It's cool. :-)

6. All false modesty aside, I think I'm a nine. Ten, I think, is reserved for geniuses, which I am not. But I'm a pretty bright guy nevertheless. I do stupid things all the times, of course, but I think that has more to do with being human than being stupid.

:hi: lioness!

132. aristus ..your answers are always so well thought out.
i think your boat rides sound wonderful.

i wish i had studied some more history..the cold war was a very interesting phenomenon

i dont think you are being a prude by saying that t shirt is inappropriate (i work in an internet business..people are too young to care about clothes..so long as you show up and work)

i think you are a 9.5 :)

146. Answers
1.) Rail (Metro, Septa, Amtrak, Subway, Path, Metro-North, Underground, LIRR, etc.)
2.) Creative Writing
3.) Sure...I wear ones to work under my apron on dress-down Fridays which are at-least that offensive. I refuse to wear good tees to work and ruin them.
4.) Often. Pills are my friends. Pain is not. I don't take them needlessly. That's dumb. It only builds up your drug tolerance; when you need to not be in agony, you're rather fucked.
5.) Yes.
6.) 8. I have a 173 IQ, which means that there are only (this number arrived at by statistical sampling and not by me) approximately 241,366 people in the entire world as smart or smarter than me. OTOH, I have a tendency to say stupid things and be a know-it-all about things I know nothing about. That, my DU friends, is "dum...D-U-M" dumb. Let's make that "8" a "6" instead.
