What Kind of American English Do You Speak?

You Are 32% Cynical

Generally you give people the benefit of the doubt. But there are exceptions. You buy into many of the things that mainstream society believes, but you're not anybody's fool.

How Cynical Are You?

You Have a Phlegmatic Temperament

Mild mannered and laid back, you take life at a slow pace. You are very consistent - both in emotions and actions. You tend to absorb set backs easily. You are cool and collected. It is difficult to offend you. You can remain composed and unemotional. You are a great friend and lover. You don't demand much of others. While you are quiet, you have a subtle wit that your friends know well. At your worst, you are lazy and unwilling to work at anything. You often get stuck in a rut, without aspirations or dreams. You can get too dependent on others, setting yourself up for abandonment.

What Temperment Are You?

Your Dominant Intelligence is Linguistic Intelligence

You are excellent with words and language. You explain yourself well. An elegant speaker, you can converse well with anyone on the fly. You are also good at remembering information and convicing someone of your point of view. A master of creative phrasing and unique words, you enjoy expanding your vocabulary. You would make a fantastic poet, journalist, writer, teacher, lawyer, politician, or translator.

What Kind of Intelligence Do You Have?

My three kids.   Nothing compares to the pride of your children.  This picture was taken about 6 months ago.

I love angels.  I'm not a huge religious fanatic although I do believe in God.  More than anything I love the whole idea of angels, whether or not they are real or if they even remotely resemble our human interpretation of what they look and act like.  I just like believing in an idealistic middle man, if you will.

I found the picture above while scouring the internet, yet again, for nice angel pictures.  The one above is by far, my favorite.  My idea of a good picture is 1) I Colorful pictures but white wings are a bonus 2) No sadistic, dark or goth angels and 3) No half-porn, big booby, butt-hanging-out female angels (I like men, so what??).  Other than that the picture just has to capture my attention some how.

Funny what you find while you are looking for something else.  I typed "angel" into a Google Image search and got everything from religious angels to Hells Angels.  Let's see, there was also Charlie's Angels, the baseball team The Angels, Angels and Demons (Dan Brown's book), Blue Angels, angel fish, City of Angels (L.A. and the movie), how to make snow angels (they need web sites for this??), there was one called "Angels With Only One Wing" (huh??) and last but not least, a variety of mushrooms called Death Angels.  Okay, WHATever. 

It's just really fun when you have some free time to do something unproductive and completely selfish. This is mine.
