Stability results were moderately high which suggests you are relaxed, calm, secure, and optimistic.

Orderliness results were moderately low which suggests you are, at times, overly flexible, improvised, and fun seeking at the expense of reliability, work ethic, and long term accomplishment.

Extraversion results were high which suggests you are overly talkative, outgoing, sociable and interacting at the expense too often of developing your own individual interests and internally based identity.

My Interests

First of all, if there are any bad links or aps on this page please let me know. I check it regularly, and it looks good to me, but I don't know how it looks to others. Now about me:
I started scuba diving about 8 years ago and have about 50 dives or so, but I haven't been for a few years, and want to start up again.
Living in Boston w/o a car makes it tough for me to get to the water (which is a big part of why I haven't been for a while), so anyone that wants a dive buddy and is willing to give me a ride, I'd appreciate it. :-)
Lately I find myself uber-involved with various charities and professional societies. I'm the chairman of the Children's Trust Fund's Young Professionals Preventing Child Abuse Committee, On the board of Art of July , A member of The Gift Foundation's event's committee. I'm the chairman of one committee and a member of 2 other committes for the American Council of Engineering Companies (Massachusetts Chapter) , and the Secretary of one committee and a member of another for the Boston Society of Civil Engineers . In addition I'm a voting member on the Regional Transportation Advisory Council of the Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization .

Music:

I have a wide range of musical tastes, but what most people don't know about me (up until now I guess) is that I've always really liked folk music. The simplicity of a solo artist with a lone acoustic guitar and the antiestablishment lyrics have always appealed to me. Some of the artists I'm listening to currently are: Antje Duvokot , Lori McKenna and Bruce Cockburn .Lately I've been getting back into Funk. Tuesdays at Wally's has been the impetus.

Movies:

Here's a few of my favorites that I watch over and over.
Brazil (Terry Gilliam) should be manditory viewing for all govenment workers.
