The Eyes Have It

You Are Whimsical

You are a dreamy, imaginative, and visual person. You paint complete pictures in your mind. Your daydreams are like movies. You can transport yourself to a time and place that you may or may not have seen before. You see the world from an upside down, inside out position. You just process everything differently. Your vivid imagination amplifies everything around you. One small object or occurrence can set off a chain of events in your mind. The world sees you as highly creative and enigmatic. Many people would like to 'pick your brain', but they don't know where to begin. People are blown away by the thoughts and ideas you do share with them. No one can wrap their heads around your way of thinking.

The Abstract Eye Test

Happy Columbus Day!

The official name of the Niña (one of the three ships of Christopher Columbus) was the Santa Clara. It was common for ships of the time to have both an official religious name and a nickname which sometimes was the feminine form of the owner's name. That was the case with the Santa Clara, whose owner was Juan Niño of Moguer. (the feminine form of his name is Niña)

A Rat By Any Other Name

The Norway rat (commonly called the brown rat), did not originate in Norway, but rather from northern China.  The rats spread to Europe in the 16th century and were transported to North America in the mid-18th century on ships carrying grain from England.  They were named for Norway in the mistaken belief that they had arrived in England aboard Norwegian vessels.

I never had heard or seen this word used, but I sure can think of quite a few people to which it could refer.

We've elected many.

John Cazale

John Cazale (August 12, 1935 – March 12, 1978) appeared in only five films in his six-year film career, but each one was nominated for Best Picture. He is the only actor to have this multi-film distinction.

I'm An Open Book

I'm totally against banning books; to ban a classic book such as The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn because of the "N word" is political correctness run amok. Sure, there are books that aren't age appropriate, but to ban books from the general populace because of what someone else decides should or shouldn't be read smacks of Orwell's 1984 (which is another book that has been banned from certain libraries)

I took this test several days ago and forgot what the other results were;  I'm semi-surprised at my results because I've never seen the movie or read the book (although I intend to) but other than that, the rest of the description fits me.

You Are The Hunger Games

You have a wild imagination, one that is not easily satisfied by run of the mill stories and novels. You like to be transported to a completely different world. You like to be immersed in a life that is nothing like your own. You don't mind an outlandish story - in fact, you require it. You prefer a book that's not just about ordinary, every day things. There's nothing you like better than being lost in a book - especially one with a strong plot and protagonist to root for.
