Gatsby722 Pure Diamond Registered: Fri May 18 2001 Posts: 123698 Loc: Canton Ohio USA	Hmmm. In my travels I happened to stumble onto this "Which Are You?" test ~ short (with most interesting answer choices, too) and speedy. It was sort of fun. Take the test! Me? Simply put: Quote: Dorothy Parker writes you, you wonderfully urbane, witty boozehound, you. ! I LOVE Dorothy Parker, so that'll suit me. Much better than being likened to Hitler, I reckon.... _________________________ "The best teacher is not the one who knows most but the one who is most capable of reducing knowledge to that simple compound of the obvious and wonderful." ...

picqero Multiloquent Registered: Tue Dec 28 2004 Posts: 2813 Loc: Hertfordshire<br>England UK	I'm another "Ernest Hemingway penned your novel. Go you studlyman, you.", which I like to think is pretty accurate. Pity red wine wasn't included in the drink choices, as I'm enjoying a glass as I do this test!

argus9 Mainstay Registered: Thu Sep 30 1999 Posts: 856 Loc: Winnipeg Manitoba Canada	"William Gibson wrote your book. Technology terrifies and delights you." Didn't recognize his name so I looked him up. He writes Science Fiction and is an American who moved to Canada to escape the draft in 68. He wrote Neuromancer. I love Science Fiction but I haven read his books. Time to visit the library. _________________________ Weaseling out of things is important to learn.

lothruin Multiloquent Registered: Wed Nov 12 2003 Posts: 2165 Loc: Nebraska USA	I'm a Flannery O'Conner too, though I enjoy Anne Rice, myself, and could pick out the answers that would give me that results if I wanted it... Argus, William Gibson is amazing. He also wrote the short story and screenplay for that dubious Keanu Reeves flick, Johnny Mnemonic. His short stories are wonderful. I read Neuromancer long enough ago that I only recall enjoying it, but for an easy introduction, I can highly recommend Burning Chrome, which is the collection of short stories in which you'll find the original inspiration for the Keanu Reeves film. _________________________ Goodbye Ruth & Betty, my beautiful grandmothers.

agony Administrator Registered: Sat Mar 29 2003 Posts: 16595 Loc: Western Canada	Another Flannery O'Conner, which confuses me a bit, but I don't mind. I didn't read anybody else's results before taking it, and enjoyed guessing at which authors they would use - I got Hemingway, Austen, Rice and Heinlien.
