This is me rocking out at Live8 apparently LOL...


Random silly quizzes:


My score on The BASIC classic rock Test :
Rock Star
(You scored 98%!)
You damn rock star. You know all the basics, and if you got any wrong, I bet it was that stupid Traveling Wilburys question.
Your friends are probably intimidated by your knowledge of classic rock and envy your impressive collection. When a classic rock song comes on the radio, you can probably identify it before the vocals kick in most of the time. You probably get good scores on the "maiden name of Clapton's mom" tests, too.


But of course, Classic Rock is the best genre of music. IMO consistently high quality music ended after the classic rock era. BTW, I got the Traveling Wilburys question RIGHT! ;-P



Which Far out 60's-70's band are you?
You are PINK FLOYD! This means you are deep yet misunderstood.


Is this any surprise, really?



What Firefly Character Are You?
Zoe Alleyne
Above all things, you're tough. You're also very private and prefer to keep your personal life just that. You know what to do to get the job done, and can always be counted on. You may not have much of sense of humor, but you're strong, reliable, and loyal.


This is surprisingly accurate, cool.




Score: 157
I am absolutely a hippie!
Take the "Are you a Hippie?" Test


No wonder people keep calling me a hippy. :-D I'm amazed I scored so high considering I answered NO to all the drug related questions! Must be because I do all that artsy stuff it asked about, and I've traveled across the country and the world just for Pink Floyd! hehe. ;-)


You Are A Maple Tree
There's not anyone in this world quite like you.
You are full of imagination, ambition, and originality.
Shy but confident, you hunger for new experiences.
You have a good memory and learn easily.
You are sometimes nervous and always complex (especially in love). What is Your Celtic Horoscope?

That's fairly dead on, actually.




My life is rated NC-17.
What is your life rated?


Hmmm...no comment.

Your Seduction Style: Ideal Lover
You seduce people by tapping into their dreams and desires. And because of this sensitivity, you can be the ideal lover for anyone you seek. You are a shapeshifter - bringing romance, adventure, spirituality to relationships. It all depends on who your with, and what their vision of a perfect relationship is. What Is Your Seduction Style?

The Keys to Your Heart


You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.
In love, you feel the most alive when your partner is patient and never willing to give up on you.
You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change.
You would be forced to break up with someone who was insecure and in constant need of reassurance.
Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets.
Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.
You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.
In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted. What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

Expect nothing less from a Libra. ;-)


You Are the Reformer
1 You're a responsible person - with a clear sense of right and wrong.
High standards are important to you, and you do everything to meet them.
You are your own worst critic, feeling ashamed if you're not perfect.
You have the highest integrity, and people expect you to be fair. What number are you?

Yep, that sounds about right. :-P


You are Meddle - laid-back, free-form, one of the
most incredible albums to date: too bad it didn't sell big when it came out.
Which Pink Floyd album are you?
brought to you by Quizilla

Mmmm good album.



"Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking
eyes, inviting and inciting me to rise. And
thru the window in the wall comes streaming in
on sunlight's wings, a million bright
ambassadors of morning..."You
are..."Echoes". (The song, not the
album.) You are a very thoughtful, peaceful
soul who views everyone as a potential friend.
Keep up the optimism! The world needs to see
more of that.
Which Pink Floyd Lyrics Best Describe You?
brought to you by Quizilla

No wonder why I chose Echoes to play on my profile. :-)


You are "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"
What Pink Floyd Song Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla

LOL! Maybe that's because I blocked out the majority of my childhood so I'm trying hard to remember something...


You are David Gilmour. You are great at what you do
and have fun doing it, but you also aren't too
concerned with what others think of you and
tend to be stubborn.
Which Member of Pink Floyd Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla

Hmm "stubborn" isn't the right word, but yeah ok this is the closest match out of the choices anyway.
