1. There Is Nothing Like a Dame - Off Topic Posting of the Day

You want to know why so many blogs link to online quizzes? It's a space filler. Oh sure, I could write a review of Theodosia and the Serpents of Chaos. OR I could find out what kind of classic dame I am. The sad fact? There's no contest as apparently I am a ...

Rosalind Russell

You scored 9% grit, 71% wit, 23% flair, and 2% class!




You are one wise-cracking lady, always quick with a clever remark and easily able to keep up with the quips and puns that come along with the nutty situations you find yourself in. You're usually able to talk your way out of any jam, and even if you can't, you at least make it more interesting with your biting wit. You can match the smartest guy around line for line, and you've got an open mind that allows you to get what you want, even if you don't recognize it at first. Your leading men include Cary Grant and Clark Gable, men who can keep up with you.


Find out what kind of classic leading man you'd make by taking the
Classic Leading Man Test.

Wow. 2% class. That sheds some light on my inexplicable love of the word "yowse" and "yowza!". This quiz was thanks to Shaken & Stirred who apparently doesn't want me to get any work done. Unfortunately, just when I thought I was in the free and clear, the How Rare Is Your Personality? via Becky's Book Reviews cropped up on my horizon.


Your Personality is Very Rare (INFP)

Your personality type is dreamy, romantic, elegant, and expressive.

Only about 5% of all people have your personality, including 6% of all women and 4% of all men
You are Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Perceiving.


I love it when two quizzes contradict one another so perfectly.

2. Great Pseudo-Futuristic Covers



I love this. There are few sights sweeter in this world than examining history's predictions of the future. When I was at the ALA Convention in Seattle I had the great luck to stumble upon a party held at the Science Fiction Museum. This was marvelous, in part, because we got to look at all the exhibits on our own time. So much fun. The museum was to be commended for its vast collection of pulpy sci-fi book covers as well. I suspect these covers by British illustrator and comics artist Ron Turner would have fit right in.

Thanks to Drawn for the link.

3. Artists That Work Entirely In the Medium of Gummi

No. It's exactly what you feared. It's made entirely out of Gummi Bears.
I can't really justify including this, except to say I couldn't resist. And you should see the carpet.

Thanks to corn shake and my mother for the link
