(Just visiting? Take the free personality test and determine your iPersonic type!)

Analytical Thinkers are reserved, quiet persons. They like to get to the bottom of things - curiosity is one of their strongest motives. They want to know what holds the world together deep down inside. They do not really need much more to be happy because they are modest persons. Many mathematicians, philosophers and scientists belong to this type. Analytical Thinkers loathe contradictions and illogicalness; with their sharp intellect, they quickly and comprehensively grasp patterns, principles and structures. They are particularly interested in the fundamental nature of things and theoretical findings; for them, it is not necessarily a question of translating these into practical acts or in sharing their considerations with others. Analytical Thinkers like to work alone; their ability to concentrate is more marked than that of all other personality types. They are open for and interested in new information.

Analytical Thinkers have little interest in everyday concerns - they are always a little like an “absent-minded professor” whose home and workplace are chaotic and who only concerns himself with banalities such as bodily needs when it becomes absolutely unavoidable. The acknowledgement of their work by others does not play a great role for them; in general,they are quite independent of social relationships and very self-reliant. Analytical Thinkers therefore often give others the impression that they are arrogant or snobby - especially because they do not hesitate to speak their mind with their often harsh (even if justified) criticism and their imperturbable self-confidence. Incompetent contemporaries do not have it easy with them. But whoever succeeds in winning their respect and interest has a witty and very intelligent person to talk to. A partner who amazes one with his excellent powers of observation and his very dry humour.

It takes some time before Analytical Thinkers make friends, but then they are mostly friends for life. They only need very few people around them. Their most important ability is to be a match for them and thus give them inspiration. Constant social obligations quickly get on their nerves; they need a lot of time alone and often withdraw from others. Their partner must respect this and understand that this is not due to the lack of affection. Once they have decided in favour of a person, Analytical Thinkers are loyal and reliable partners. However, one cannot expect romance and effusive expressions of feelings from them and they will definitely forget their wedding anniversary. But they are always up to a night spent with stimulating discussions and a good glass of wine!

Apparently in a vastly wired Japan, reality is tangled with virtual assets.

From Yahoo News,

TOKYO - A 43-year-old player in a virtual game world became so angry about her sudden divorce from her online husband that she logged on with his password and killed his digital persona, police said.

The woman, who has been jailed on suspicion of illegally accessing a computer and manipulating electronic data, used his ID and password to log onto the popular interactive game “Maple Story” to carry out the virtual murder in May, a police official in the northern city of Sapporo said Thursday. He spoke on condition of anonymity because of department policy.

“I was suddenly divorced, without a word of warning. That made me so angry,” the official quoted her as telling investigators and admitting the allegations.

The woman, a piano teacher, had not plotted any revenge in the real world, the official said.

She has not yet been formally charged. If convicted, she could face up to five years in prison or a fine up to US$5,000.

Players in “Maple Story” create and manipulate digital images called “avatars” that represent themselves, while engaging in relationships, social activities and fighting monsters and other obstacles.

In virtual worlds, players often abandon their inhibitions, engaging in activity online that they would never do in the real world. For instance, sex with strangers is a common activity.

The woman used login information she got from the 33-year-old office worker when their characters were happily married to kill the character. The man complained to police when he discovered that his online avatar was dead.

The woman was arrested Wednesday and taken 620 miles (1,000 kilometers) from her home in southern Miyazaki to be detained in Sapporo, where the man lives, the official said.

The police official said he did not know if she was married in the real world.

Bad online behavior is usually handled within the rules set up by online worlds, which can ban miscreants or take away their virtual possessions.

In recent years, misbehavior in the virtual world has in some cases had consequences in reality.

In August, a woman was charged in the U.S. state of Delaware with plotting the real-life abduction of a boyfriend she met through the virtual reality Web site “Second Life.”

In Tokyo, a 16-year-old boy was charged with stealing the ID and password from a fellow player of an online game in order to swindle virtual currency worth US$360,000.

I wonder how much of the MMORPG does Missus the GamingBabe takes seriously, ’cause she has ALL my passwords to Cabal.

Oh no. No wonder she’s edging me to join her on MapleStory these days….

Both of us are entertainment fanatics - we love watching movies, tv programmes, animation, etc! Will be great to see from the large, high definition TV instead of squinting into a tiny screen! This would make dating so much more affordable!

Wondering if that geek of mine can think of some great ideas to hook up the videos we have in our hard drives to the HD Plasma TV too? I vaguely remembered it can be done…oh wow then it would be really fun! Can watch absolutely anything, everything!

Not to mention plugging in my photos and viewing them, enlarged version! Goodness just makes me want to hyperventilate with that mere thought!

I have never really seen a 60″ TV. I wonder how it even looks…check it out and details on the contest at East Coast Life Blog

~drools~

Missus

Yes. DPL wants you to win the TV as badly as he does. (You can thank me by naming your firstborn, ‘DPL’ when you get it.)

Going by the extreme efficiency of the local postal system, you have approximately one more day to post your answers.

A quick calculation reveals that, with an apprx. total number of ~60 entries and provided you dutifully blogged about her contest, you’ll get a sweet TEN PERCENT chance of hitting jackpot.

In contrast, the chances of you striking Sys 7 TOTO draw is, 1 in a-stupendous-large-number-of-digits which makes you wonder why bother betting in the first place?

And yes, I know I’m known as Dua Pia Lang (Big Biscuit Man?) in eastcoastlife.

and grimace.
3. Walk sideways to the photocopier.
4. While going in an elevator, gasp dramatically each time the doors
open.
5. When in elevator with one other person, tap them on the shoulder and
pretend it wasn’t you.
6. Finish all your sentences with “In accordance with the prophecy…”
7. Don’t use any punctuation.
8. Interrupt your conversation with someone by giving a huge dejected
sigh.

double-barreled fingers.

nozzle.
3. Shout random numbers while someone is counting.

5. Put decaf in the coffee maker for 3 weeks. Once everyone has got over
his or her caffeine addictions, switch to espresso.

it’s happened again!”. Then do it again.
7. Call I.T. helpdesk and tell them that you can’t seem to access any
pornography web sites.

FIVE-POINT DARES

1. At the end of a meeting, suggest that, for once, it would be nice to

growing irritation, turn the light switch on/off 10 times.
3. For an hour, refer to everyone you speak to as “Dave”.
4. Announce to everyone in a meeting that you “really have to go do a
number two”.
5. When you’ve picked up a call, before speaking finish off some fake
conversation with the words, ‘’she can abort it for all I care”.
6. After every sentence, say ‘Mon’ in a really bad Jamaican accent. As
in: “The report’s on your desk, Mon.” Keep this up for one hour.
7. At lunchtime, get down on your knees and announce, “As God is my
witness, I’ll never go hungry again!”
8. Repeat the following conversation 10 times to the same person: “Do
you hear that?” “What?” “Never mind, it’s gone now.”
9. Present meeting attendees with a cup of coffee and biscuit; smash
each biscuit with your fist.
10. During the course of a meeting, slowly edge your chair towards the
door.
11. As often as possible, skip rather than walk.

TEN-POINT DARES

1. Leave your fly open for one hour. If anyone points it out, say,

mutter, “Shut up, damn it, all of you just shut up!”
4. Ask people what sex they are. Laugh hysterically after they answer.
5. Dry hump the photocopier. When someone spots you, stop and cough
embarrassingly, then lean in to the machine and whisper loudly, “I’ll
see you tonight”.
