Simon

No, this is not Milton Bradley's Simon game.

From Thrown Into Training:
Click here to determine what personality color you are.
Reds and blues are extroverts, though red is a “fighter” and blue is a “flighter.” Greens and yellows are introverts, although gree is a “fighter” and yellow is a “flighter.”

So reds and yellows are opposites and blues and greens are opposites. That doesn’t mean bad, just different ways of thinking. As with most tests of this nature, if you score similarly in 2 or more categories, you have bits and pieces of each in your personality. Or, you might score very high in one category overall.

So, in order to approach each person based on their personality color, scroll down toward the bottom of the chart.

"It's time to leave"

After coming out of retirement for a year, Brett Favre has decided to retire...again. And this time, it sounds like it's for good as he's already filed his retirement paperwork with the NFL.



The Packers also released a statement:
"Congratulations to Brett on a remarkable career. The Packers organization wishes him and his family well. Brett always will hold a special place in Green Bay Packers history, and we remain committed to retiring his number at an appropriate time in the future."

To Friend, or Not to Friend: That is the Question

If you want a really odd experience, join Facebook. Before you know it, you'll have 200 friends and all of your worlds will be colliding. What do I mean? You will be friends with people from:
  • Elementary School
  • High School
  • College
  • Church
  • Professional
  • Actual Friends! forbid
There is no other category other than "friend." At one point, Brian updated his Facebook status with the following:

Besides the category of "Friend", what other categories should FB offer?

Some examples:

"Acquaintance",
"I may know you"
"I-think-I-may-know-you",
"I don't know you, but I'm a facebook floozy and will 'friend' anyone"
"I know you, but I don't like you in real life",
"That was in college, it's all a blur, …. um... Read More…. I may know you"
"No!! That was you! Did you go through rehab?"
"Poured a milkshake on your head in 10th grade, but I'm nicer now"

He's so right.

You will also begin using "friend" as a verb: "Today, I friended Joe."

Stop the madness!
