BITTER LEMON

How I miss this drink.

It’s funny though how this british company doesn’t know the product is sold in England! :-)

Caramilk Bars - The Biggest Secret In The Universe

Frozen … which explains why they taste so good straight out of the freezer.

Just try it!

Tickle: Tests, Matchmaking and Social Networking

Filed under: thoughts, personal, jobs, Internet — roar @ 2:47 pm

Tickle me …..

A while back I took a free IQ test from Tickle.com. The result … well, let’s just say I was on the “right” side of the curve.

As I’m a bit sceptical to this kind of testing, I did not buy the premium analysis … ;-)

Today I was offered a free copy - as long as I was willing to check out some offers from some of their partners (”free” gas card etc.).

The report was “interesting”. I’m a “Visionary Philosopher”. And guess what, they even issued me a Certificate of Intellectual Achievement”!

From the report:

You’ve got tons of strengths. It wouldn’t surprise us if you:
- Think of the “big picture”
- Can anticipate and predict patterns
- Are good at context clues
- Can see similarities in seemingly disparate things

Who wouldn’t be pleased with this?

It also gave me some help for my job search :-) )))

Some of the careers they suggested:


- Archaeologist
- Detective
- Sculptor
- City planner
- Chief executive

Quite a range to choose from. I could have told them that without taking the test. I’m sure my mom must have told me I could be whatever I want to be!

“Open in new window?”

Filed under: rants, Internet, blogging — roar @ 10:57 am

UPDATE: This post moved to WordPress December 5, 2005! I have my new tool!

I’ve just lost an hour worth of work. I’ve been working on a blog piece and just wanted to add one more reference link. To do this I opened an e-mail from a friend and clicked on the link he had sent me. Which opened the this web site within my “Blog This” page, and erased all my work.

I think I need a new tool.
