I wanna go home.
Yesterday afternoon my idleness was "celebrated" by the infliction of one of those projects Trudy occasionally gives me that lead to at least an hour of me staring at the spreadsheet in numb confusion. Yay. Let's see if I can wade through a bit of my friends list in between filling in the blanks I can find the info for.
For your further reading pleasure:
I like Molly Ivins. She's proof that not all Texans are semi-literate gunwaving yahoos. Here's a column she wrote on our confused neighbors to the north. ("Nice, polite, calm, reserved, chock full of common sense and living next to us - what a fate. For them, it's like having the Simpsons for next-door neighbors.")
sclerotic_rings found the article about the procrastination gene -- turn this gene off and lazy monkeys become workaholics. Interesting. Seems to be associated with the brain's reward center.
Gacked from chuthulu:
RavenclawRavenclaws are anally retentive and emotionally backwards. They pride themselves on their intellect, but lack the common sense which would allow them to function in the real world. Some notable Ravenclaws from canon are Luna 'wackjob' Lovegood and Cho 'waterspout' Chang. Enjoy yourself in house Ravenclaw, basketcase!

Which Hogwarts House Would Take A Loser Like You?
Only three questions and it asks you what house you want in the last one. Still, amusing for the results.
I shall post this now just to let me close windows before lunch -- because methinks I'll be demanding help after. Plus, I have reached the section of this task that requires complex thought and actual math...
