That settles it... kind of...

You Should Be An Aquarius

What's good about you: philosophical and idealistic, you are a great thinker

What's bad about you: you require a lot of space - it's hard to get close to you

In love: you're quirky and playful, but you hate to be smothered

In friendship, you're: likely to have many acquaintances and very few good friends

Your ideal job: pilot, snow boarder, or science fiction writer

Your sense of fashion: unconventional, unique outfits that turn heads

You like to pig out on: anything with garlic or unique spices

Friends

'I have — finally — realised that friends are an enormous support (even if they don't provide direct support) in getting at least little momentary shots of self-confidence. Eventually, these shots might accumulate into something bigger and more stable, so that your self-confidence builds on yourself and your self-esteem instead of on these momentary shots from outside.'
Bjørn Clasen, 23/3-6

Kvinder er dyre i drift...

'En [...] kunde mistede 53.000 kr., fordi han ved en fejl overførte pengene til en kvinde i stedet for en mand.'
fra leder i Ekstra Bladet,
som i øvrigt bruger et glimrende ord — gebyrgribbe — om bankerne

Surrender

After all your soul will still surrender
After all don't doubt your part
Be ready to be loved

Creativity... crucial!

'Creativity is the brain's ultimate weapon in an uncertain world. Without creativity we are restricted to reacting to set rules in dealing with life. Rules are fine at times of constancy. But there has never been a less constant time than the present.'
Brian Clegg in his book Instant Brainpower
