I’ve not posted the results of an online quiz in quite a while. I like this one very much.
Still waiting to take this one, which remains to this day the funniest thing I’ve ever encountered on the internets.

Booze Test
While waiting on my little bride to give me the order to light up the smoke pit, I came across this; minus the link to some DC dating “service”:
I’m sure there will be some live testing in the coming days; live tests are always preferable to multiple choice, IMO.

OK, I’m a Midlander
By accent anyhow, at least according to this:
| What American accent do you have? (Best version so far)
Midland (“Midland” is not necessarily the same thing as “Midwest”) The default, lowest-common-denominator American accent that newscasters try to imitate. Since it’s a neutral accent, just because you have a Midland accent doesn’t mean you’re from the Midland.

Note the number of green states there. I may be compelled to revisit Indiana and Ohio for their pigmentation on that map.

A tbbs-land Quiz
If you can pick the bomb from these two, you’re not from Boston:
Maybe Turner Broadcasting should have thought this through a little more, but I still can’t see how this marketing ploy gone awry caused everyone to get into such a lather.
If I hear “post-911 world” one more time, I’m gonna scream. Or load up the iPod with podcasts and listen to them during drive-time. Yeah, there’s the ticket.

Sleek and Fast
I’m probably neither as sleek nor as fast as I once was, and that isn’t saying much. I now bask in glory.
| What military aircraft are you?
F/A-22 Raptor You are an F/A-22. You are technologically inclined, and though you’ve never been tested in combat, your very name is feared. You like noise, but prefer not to pollute any more than you have to. And you can move with the best.

Unaccented
It’s been a good week, or a bad one, depending on your view, for InterWeb Quizzes:
| What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The West
Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you’re a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta. |

I’m not sure I like being referred to as a “lowest common denominator”, but it is what it is.

Update: It looks like Mr Style Sheet has clobbered the reddening of the bars in the above. Oh, well, I am a “lowest common denominator.”
An Official Seal
I thought it was high time this old blog had an official seal of some kind. And from Lifehacker, pointage to the Official Seal Generator site, and a beautiful graphic is born.
Things such as this seal can only do good things for my TWAC score.

UPDATE: I just saw this post in my NNW reader; if I may say so, It looks very ZZTop-like. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Quandary Time
The start of the Neighborhood Excellence 400 presented by Bank of America from Dover International Speedway is about an hour away. I have yet to finalize my Fantasy racing lineup for the week. Tony Stewart, one of my best performers, slapped the wall hard twice at Charlotte last weekend, and has a cracked scapula (hurts me to type that). He will start the race, and turn the driving over to Ricky Rudd during the first caution period. RIcky has done well at Dover; where it will hurt my team is that a lot of positions will be lost during the driver exchange. If there’s an early caution, the impact will be less, but still there.
So, if I trade Tony this week, who do I choose as an alternate? I have no clue. Whoever I’d pick would have a lesser salary, and would free up about $500K in driver funny money. Then, I’d be tempted to trade of one of my lower-cost drivers, put the $500K with that, and get another driver higher on the salary food chain.
OK, so then here goes:
That’s my story and strategy, and I’m stickin’ with it.
Thanks to Fantasy Cup for some fine TWAC1 fodder.
