    So, I Guess I'm Not "Type A"

    Type A Personality

    The following are the characteristics of the type A personality

    • Type A’s has got a severe sense of time urgency. They are always running and can hardly relax. If they sat without doing something useful they may end up feeling guilty
    • Type A’s are over achievers, they usually get themselves involved in many different unrelated activities and perform well in them all.
    • Type A's biggest problem is stress, they are usually overwhelmed by the amount of tasks they have to do. These tasks are usually a huge list that they planned for themselves.
    • Type A is usually competitive and has a high challenging spirit.

    Type B Personality

    • Type B personality is almost the opposite of Type A.
      This type of person is relaxed by nature and has no sense of time urgency
    • Type Bs have got no problems relaxing or sitting without doing anything
    • Type Bs may delay the work they have to the last moment and they usually don't get stressed that easily.
    • Type B could be an achiever too but his lack of sense of time urgency helps him much in not feeling stressed while doing his tasks.

  • The Church Date

    Heh, heh. I thought this was hilarious. I've never been on one, but now I have some ideas in case I ever have the opportunity... (That's not a hint. No, really, I don't mean anything by it. Seriously, I'm not being sarcastic.)

    Happy Earth Day?

    Happy Earth Day to you. Happy Earth Day to you. Happy Earth Day, dear Reader. Happy Earth Day to yooooooooou.

    People are weird about today. Everyone wants on the boat. The guy at the toy store asked if we wanted a bag. Probably not, he decided, since today is *drumroll* Earth Day.

    Disc jockeys are also weird about Earth Day. That's all the talk radio stations were talking about during my whole (early) drive to work. Even the music stations had blurbs about it. It happens every year. There's a big stir over environmental issues for a day, sometimes a week, then almost nothing for an entire year. That's if you don't count the crazies that stand outside restaurants and splash paint on people.
     
    If it were that important to people, there wouldn't be a day devoted to it. It would just be how people would act. Not just the crazies.

    This burst of fervent activity is okay and, yes, 9 x-tillion trees and a puppy were conserved because we acted more responsibly on a particular day. That just means that we could be conserving 356 times (366 this year) as much in a year. Shame on us!
     
    Especially Christians. If we believe the Bible, God said to take care of creation because it's borrowed from Him. Why is it so hard to convince people to change a little?
