Quizzes Quizzes and more quizzes - hey this is fun!  oh and I seem to have full functionality on the site back again!!


 


Except I can't post the code for the results page.  Oh well, here's the text anyway:


You were a REVOLUTIONARY WARRIOR.


You were the leader of a new era, the kind of person who brought about the new and different ages and spawned new ways of living. YOu fought in these kind of upheavals or led great armies to great things. our name is often forgotten; you are probably a martyr.  You may have been:


Joan of Arc
The Samurai Ghost
Carl Marx

Almost autumn - and Marc's first design



Hmm I happen to have here Carrie's latest thread "Almost Autumn". For those who can't see this pic, look in my photo album here.

I think this might work as an alternative to the DMC for Marc's Fire Flower design - which can be seen here. Now Marc's design is all in reds and golds, but I wonder if the green in this might give it a new flavour completely .... and the colours here aren't *that* dark - so they would still look outstanding on the black!

Thoughts anyone?

Things to do at work when you are bored .......


Get all of your fellow workmates and members of the general public in the library at the time to try the following:

While sitting in a chair, lift your right foot off
the floor and make clockwise circles with it. Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your
right hand.

Now try and stop your foot from changing direction on you ..........



Soooo Hot!



God its hot - so hot. We were over 40 degrees today (over 100F) and its now just after midnight and its still over 30 degrees .... I can't stitch in this weather - I can't move in this weather - all I can do is sit in the dark and hope the cool air will come.

I'm off for a cool shower to sluice off the sweat and then off to bed.

Dear Santa,
Please send some cool winds and rain :) Oh and lots of stash and books - oh and no bills for a while OK? Oh and don't forget the broadband connection!

Hugs

What Tarot card are you?


Thought this sounded cute :) The results surprised me a little .... Anyone else want to play?


You are Strength


Courage, strength, fortitude. Power not arrested in the act of judgement, but passing on to further action, sometimes obstinacy.

This is a card of courage and
energy. It represents both the Lion's hot, roaring energy, and the
Maiden's steadfast will. The innocent Maiden is unafraid, undaunted,
and indomitable. In some cards she opens the lion's mouth, in others
she shuts it. Either way, she proves that inner strength is more
powerful than raw physical strength. That forces can be controlled and
used to score a victory is very close to the message of the Chariot,
which might be why, in some decks, it is Justice that is card 8 instead
of Strength. With strength you can control not only the situation, but
yourself. It is a card about anger and impulse management, about
creative answers, leadership and maintaining one's personal honor. It
can also stand for a steadfast friend.
