OK, now I really feel like I need a makeover...

What kind of Elitist are you?

I am a food & wine junkie, apparently.
Really, I just get the $20 wine for $8, when it's on sale.

Can someoneo who is a fine-arts decorator kind of guy also like "Godzilla vs. Mothra" (what a great movie!)?
Only if they drink a lot of Heineken and eat pizza, too.

Dear God, I am spock and I make fun of peoples paperbacks.

Mothra... that's funny. My sister-in-law's name is Martha and my boys used to call her "Aunt Mothra" when they were little :)
I was a book snob too. Purple, it's killing me being back on the East Coast. In Cali you could but wine and beer in the supermarket and everything was dirt cheap (selection was great, too). I think I'm going to start driving over to Tyson's Corner where my office is to see if I can get alcohol at Costco - I miss that, too.
Don, I like a lot of cheesy movies too. Like The Head That Would Not Die: a classic.

buy wine and beer...
what ever.

Well, it's only logical that those who are well read become logical, which creates a desire to read thus increasing there logical abilities to gain more from what they read and....
Although I'm not sure so sure about the logic behind being a food snob, other than beating that Emeril would follow perfectly with "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one"

I ended up as Yoda. *sniff* Why can't I be Kira Norise's evil twin from the bad side of DS9?
Buehler?
Buehler?
Buehler?
Anyone?

I retook the scifi test, answered one question differently that I'd been somewhat unsure about and was Galadriel. I felt somewhat better. I was on the point of contacting Alase laser hair removal services :)

OK, Yoda I can understand but Book and Language Snob? Me?
I'm missin' sumthin'! :-o
It must be my entire collection of first run Luke Short hardbacks that did the trick! W.E.B. Griffin? Louis L'Amour?
I still don't get it! ;-)

An airplane was about to crash; there were five passengers on board, and only four parachutes.
The first passenger said, "I am Kobe Bryant, the best NBA player in Basketball. The Lakers need me, I can't afford to die." So he took the first pack and left the plane.
The second passenger, Hilary Clinton said, "I am the wife of a former U S President, a senator from New York, and a potential future president, AND I am the smartest woman in American history, so American people don't want me to die." So she took the second pack and jumped out of the plane.
The third passenger, John Kerry, said, "I am a senator and a decorated war hero of the USA,; I am also my party's nominee for President." So he grabbed the pack next to him and jumped.
The 4th passenger, President George W. Bush, said to the fifth passenger, a 10 year old schoolgirl, "I have lived a full life, and served my country well. I will sacrifice my life and let you have the last parachute."
The girl said "That's okay, there's a parachute left for you. America's smartest woman just took my schoolbag."

Ya gotta beat them large leafy woody plants.

This weekend has been devoted to making mass quantities of chicken tortilla soup, spring rolls, panang curry and freezing all after cooking so that we can have quick snacks.
I am also in the midst of prepping mango salsa
and vacuum sealing dried legumes in family sized portions so that we will not have to run to the store except for milk...am working on smuggling a cow into our subdivision, but haven't quite figgured it out yet.
Breakfast is papaya, pineapple and yogurt.
Lunch will be sandwiches and vegetables.
Dinner...haven't gotten that far yet.

Guilty pleasures: I have seen Toxic Avenger more than 10 times. It was a regular movie to drink with with several of my classmates in college.
They Live: worst movie I ever paid to see at a theater.
Not on list but should have been: Gymkata. Worst sports movie, and worst movie, ever. But like a train wreck, when it is on cable, I must watch it for a while. It has natural pauses that make it perfect for MST 3000 treatment.
