• Now that things are happening up there, try this IQ Test to see if you're any good at taking tests. These are good too.
• You can find out more about yourself with the Keirsey Character Sorter. Another version of the same test is on the HumanMetrics site. If you're someone I know, tell me what type you turned out to be (I'm an INTJ). It's disturbingly accurate, possibly enlightening and definitely entertaining. After you're done, check out the results. My sister likes the personality tests on Brunching Shuttlecocks, including Porn Star or My Little Pony? There are many more tests here.

• The Dante's Inferno Test has banished me to the Sixth Level of Hell - The City of Dis!
  Here is how I matched up against all the levels:
  

  Level	Score
  Purgatory (Repenting Believers)	Very Low
  Level 1 - Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers)	High
  Level 2 (Lustful)	Very High
  Level 3 (Gluttonous)	High
  Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious)	Very Low
  Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy)	Low
  Level 6 - The City of Dis (Heretics)	Very High
  Level 7 (Violent)	High
  Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers)	High
  Level 9 - Cocytus (Treacherous)	Moderate

  
  Take the Dante's Inferno Hell Test

• Look up your relations, both close and distant, on The Animal Diversity Web, which allows you look through a whole family tree of the world's animals.

• Remember when you had to listen to a song over and over, scribbling furiously, to figure out the lyrics so your high-school cover band could play it in someone's beer-befouled basement? Those days are gone. Lyrics on line lets you search for song lyrics by artist, album or even fragments of the title. Don't miss also the Archive of Misheard Lyrics and The Ants Are My Friends, hilarious sites where mondegreens are catalogued for your amusment.

And here are the results, along with their mottos (from Type Talk, by Kroeger & Thuesen). Click on them for fuller descriptions, and don't forget to send me yours so the rest of us can see who we're dealing with! Funny how most everyone I know falls into just a few categories. Perhaps the other types just don't like taking the test.
