toadlife 3 Posted February 20, 2004 You're Cat's Cradle! by Kurt Vonnegut You believe quite firmly that free will deserted you long ago and far away. As a result, it's hard to take responsibility for anything. Even though you show great potential as a leader of a small 3rd world country, the choices are all made ahead of time. You're rather fond of games involving string. Your fear of nuclear weaponry is trumped only by your fear of ice. Dunno about that one. You're Switzerland! While most people think you're sort of stuck up, it's really just that people don't interest you that much. That's why you'd rather just stay out of everything and be as neutral as possible. Somewhere in there is an ability to be a psychiatrist because you're so objective, but you might just be too cold for that. I also got Mexico when I answered "warm climate", but I really like to snowboard so I'll stick with Switzerland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhoCares 0 Posted February 20, 2004 Brasil And as book Quote[/b] ]You're Dune!by Frank Herbert You have control over a great wealth of resources, but no one wants to let you have them. You've decided to try to defend yourself, but it may take eons before you really get back what you feel you deserve. Meanwhile you have a cult-like following of minions waiting for your life to progress. This would all be even more exciting if you could just get the sand out of your eyes.

brgnorway 0 Posted February 20, 2004 Chile Quote[/b] ]You're really skinny, and kind of bumpy in frame, but you're not as rough a person as you used to be. You like long, long, long walks on the beach and avoiding having your rights violated, just like anybody else does. You're even willing to stand up to those with more power and influence than you, trying to bring them to justice. ....well, that pretty much sums it up lol .....strange - Steppenwolf is one of my favourites (by same author) .

JAP 2 Posted February 20, 2004 Quote[/b] ]You're Jurassic Park!by Michael Crichton You combine all the elements of a mad scientist, a brash philosopher, a humble researcher, and a money-hungry attracter of tourists. With all these features, you could build something monumental or get chased around by your own demons. Probably both, in fact. A movie based on your life would make millions - you got that right ! - , and spawn at least two sequels that wouldn't be very good. Be very careful around islands.

ozanzac 0 Posted February 20, 2004 The book test: You're Babar the King! by Jean de Brunhoff Though your life has been filled with struggle and sadness of late, you're personally doing quite well for yourself. All this success brings responsibility, though, and should not be taken lightly. Life has turned from war to peace, from damage to reconstruction, and this brings a bright new hope for everyone you know. These hopeful people look to you for guidance, and your best advice to them is to watch out for snakes. You're quite fond of the name "Celeste". It speaks the truth! Last year was one I'd rather forget, and I once went out with someone called 'Celeste'. That's freaky! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's summertime, and the living's easy. Even when there's a war on, it's just a game to you. But even though you've historically been able to meet every challenge, there are some doubts about what lies ahead. Are you sure you're up to the next test? Don't forget to pay attention to your siblings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NavyEEL 0 Posted February 20, 2004 Arrrr..... PIRATES!!!! You're Madagascar! Lots of people don't really know anything about you, making you buried treasure of the rarest kind. You love nature, and could get lost in it whenever possible. You're remote and exotic, and the few people who know you value whatever they share with you a great deal. For some reason, you really like the word lemur. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stgn 39 Posted February 20, 2004 Well in the summer I am: Quote[/b] ]You're the United Nations!Most people think you're ineffective, but you are trying to completely save the world from itself, so there's always going to be a long way to go. Â You're always the one trying to get friends to talk to each other, enemies to talk to each other, anyone who can to just talk instead of beating each other about the head and torso. Â Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, and you get very schizophrenic as a result. Â But your heart is in the right place, and sometimes also in New York. and in the winter I am: Quote[/b] ]You're Fiji!As calm, relaxed, and removed from life as they come, you're just so chilled out, it hurts people to see you. Â Everyone aspires to be where you are, but most of them just can't put their stress away. Â Little do they know that even you sometimes have inner turmoil and struggles! Â For the most part, though, it's sun and fun for you, and that's the way you like it. Â It's just sort of hard to get things done with all that partying.

Tamme 0 Posted February 20, 2004 You're Canada! People make fun of you a lot, but they're stupid because you've got a much better life than they do. In fact, they're probably just jealous. You believe in crazy things like human rights and health care and not dying in the streets, and you end up securing these rights for yourself and others. If it weren't for your weird affection for ice hockey, you'd be the perfect person. And the book: You're To Kill a Mockingbird! by Harper Lee Perceived as a revolutionary and groundbreaking person, you have changed the minds of many people. While questioning the authority around you, you've also taken a significant amount of flack. But you've had the admirable guts to persevere. There's a weird guy in the neighborhood using dubious means to protect you, but you're pretty sure it's worth it in the end. In the end, it remains unclear to you whether finches and mockingbirds get along in real life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pathy 0 Posted February 20, 2004 Quote[/b] ]You're Love in the Time of Cholera!by Gabriel Garcia Marquez Like Odysseus in a work of Homer, you demonstrate undying loyalty by sleeping with as many people as you possibly can. But in your heart you never give consent! This creates a strange quandary of what love really means to you. On the one hand, you've loved the same person your whole life, but on the other, your actions barely speak to this fact. Whatever you do, stick to bottled water. The other stuff could get you killed. ROFLMAO, and i love the title! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Munk 0 Posted February 20, 2004 After a non-drunken attempt... You're France! Most people think you're snobby, but it's really just that you're better than everyone else. At least you're more loyal to the real language, the fine arts, and the fine wines than anyone else. You aren't worth beans in a fight, unless you're really short, but you're so good at other things that it usually doesn't matter. Some of your finest works were intended to be short-term projects. Me in a nutshell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quicksand 0 Posted February 20, 2004 You're the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics! You have nothing to lose but your chains, and since you had all these chains lying around when you lost them, you promptly put them on others.  Nevertheless, you are very industrious, with a knack for coming through in the clutch when it looks like all is lost.  Despite your hard work, many people think you no longer exist, or that you could break up at any moment.  You're good in theory, but the practice needs work. Please don`t kill me  Now I know from where the fuzziness in my heart came at the end of the CWC when Guba escapes  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Placebo 29 Posted February 21, 2004 You're Sudan! Every time you get a headache, you reach for some aspirin, only to realize that someone destroyed it. Â That's just how things are going for you right now... it's hard to eat, hard to sleep, hard to not have a headache. Â You try to relax, but people always jump on you about something that doesn't make sense. Â If you were a goat, you'd be a Nubian. You're Ulysses! by James Joyce Most people are convinced that you don't make any sense, but compared to what else you could say, what you're saying now makes tons of sense. What people do understand about you is your vulgarity, which has convinced people that you are at once brilliant and repugnant. Meanwhile you are content to wander around aimlessly, taking in the sights and sounds of the city. What you see is vast, almost limitless, and brings you additional fame. When no one is looking, you dream of being a Greek folk hero. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FW200 0 Posted February 21, 2004 You're China! Big and powerful, you have a long history behind you with more good and bad than you care to remember, or are really capable of remembering. Â Lately, in older age, you've gotten sort of crochety and even mean-spirited. Â There is still a lot that's beautiful about you, but most of the focus people have when they think about you is how hard it is to work with you. Â There's hope that you might start opening up to people, but lots of people have bumper stickers about how much you should change. Book Quiz: You're The Dictionary! by Merriam-Webster You're one of those know-it-all types, with an amazing amount of knowledge at your command. People really enjoy spending time with you in very short spurts, but hanging out with you for a long time tends to bore them.

Kaliyuga 0 Posted February 21, 2004 You're Libya! (WTF kinda flag is that? lol) Quote[/b] ]It seems that these days, you just say things to get attention. Â Shock value is the really important thing for you now. Â You used to have a cause, and this made you seem like a threat to the established order, but now you just want to say wacky stuff once in a while. Â Air travel doesn't really mesh with your lifestyle, and you'd probably scare the security guards somehow anyway. You're Siddhartha! by Hermann Hesse Quote[/b] ]You simply don't know what to believe, but you're willing to try anything once. Western values, Eastern values, hedonism and minimalism, you've spent some time in every camp. But you still don't have any idea what camp you belong in. This makes you an individualist of the highest order, but also really lonely. It's time to chill out under a tree. And realize that at least you believe in ferries.
