Either that, or he is the <i>greatest</i> actor of all time. I know you edited it - didn't think you'd that kind of power - thanks. I hate typos.

Mensa wrote to me and asked me to join. I refused because they wanted me to pay. Did they think I was stupid? ;) Of course these tests are fun only. I actually did a professional "Psychological Profile" a few years ago [long story there, but I won't be telling it!]. At the time I was studying for three diplomas, aiming for two careers. The test took all afternoon and I had to return a week later for the results. I was given two careers that I would be ideally suited to. As chance would have it - the two I was going for!!!!! And I'm not going to say what they were, but neither was Journalism. @John - You do say the nicest things ;) but yu shud see wat i'm like with my spelcheker off...... @Deborah – I did one once as part of a competition.

However the description attributed to yourself doesn't sound too far from how you initially seem to me!

I also got linguistic! The options don't give you much leeway though. I mean I love roller coasters but don't like extreme sports, but they lumped them together with a T/F option... what would I choose? *SIGH* Grandad you should make your own quiz. "What world leader would you be?" I think you'd be a good authority on that one! :-) So I had to do it too… I also got linguistic! The options don’t give you much leeway though.

Maybe you are just letting your mind wander during maths? Of course they are a load of rubbish, but they're a bit of craic. I seriously would live to see results from Bertie and George W though. It would probably blow the web site! Comment edited ;)
