Marvelous

In Santiago de Chile we saw several hand-lettered placards saying:

TAROT READINGS: 5,000 PESOS.
AURA CLEANSINGS: 7,000 PESOS.
REPAIR OF REMOTE CONTROL DEVICES: 10,000 PESOS.
Call Amalio at 777-1001.

This, meanwhile, explains a great deal:

What is your age according to your lifestyle habits?

Age 21.

“You have the lifestyle of a young adult.”

And this is about as predictable as it could get:

Which Famous Revolutionary Are You?

Che Guevara.

“At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love.”

Personality Test Results

Axé.

  1. You’re always introducing something interesting. My lifestyle habits make me 13 (a teenager)…?! Probably because I don’t drink. Who knows? Anyway, as a revolutionary, I, like you, came out Che (and, as you say, no surprise there, I guess). How fun.

    13 year old lifestyle habits … I love it! And I’m playing with the quiz. I took it several times, plugging in the answers for various people I know, and all of them came out to be 13 except for two. One, who is actually 42, came out to be 100. Another, actually 82, came out to be 70. Having lots of friends and a low weight, and believing in a higher power, all seem to contribute to making you younger in this quiz. You can smoke, drink, and caffeinate yourself, and still come out to be 13 if the other answers are right. –Z

  2. That’s funny, too! But so far, nobody mentions this, my favorite part of the post:

    TAROT READINGS: 5,000 PESOS.
    AURA CLEANSINGS: 7,000 PESOS.
    REPAIR OF REMOTE CONTROL: 10,000 PESOS.

  3. Bonjour, professeur.

    This is just to wish you a wonderful 2007 and all. Cheers. (I’m a Bess regular and got your address from there).
