This is a bad time for blogging, because in the past few days I have not had any time at all to think, much less write. "All partied out," is as fair a description as I can allow under the circumstances.

However, the show must go on, time permitting or not, and it is still Online Testing Day at Classical Values.

Let's start with a test which I should have posted yesterday, but because it's a day late it's really more of a New Years Hangover.

While my New Years Resolution ought to be to stop vacationing and return to this blog in full swing, the highly resolved Ghost of a flea supplied a test indicating otherwise.

According to "What Should Your New Year's Resolution Be?" I should break stuff!

Take the What Should Your New Year's Resolution Be? Quiz

A very worrisome logical conundrum, because if I must resolve "to break stuff," then if I break stuff I break stuff, and if I don't break stuff, I still break stuff, because I break my resolution.

Worst of all, what if the resolution is interpreted as a command to break the resolution itself? I would then be completely trapped in a logical hall of mirrors: unable to either follow it or break it!

Anyway, I already broke with tradition -- by getting a different result from the Flea. His result was revolutionary!

[CONFIDENTIAL NOTE to Nicholas only: I promise not to break stuff if you promise not to beat me, OK?]

But -- in the most astonishing result of all today, I got exactly the same numerical score as the Flea in the "Are you a blogaholic?" test now making the rounds:

76 points is in the 51 through 80 percent

You are a dedicated weblogger. You post frequently because you enjoy weblogging a lot, yet you still manage to have a social life. You're the best kind of weblogger. Way to go!

"Still manage to have a social life," huh? (Little do they know.....)

The Blogaholic test I found through Charles Hill BEFORE I saw it at Ghost of a flea. What that means is that my score could not possibly have been contaminated by my having already seen the Flea's results.

It also means that Charles Hill is probably less crippled by this insidious, vicious disease which can strike anyone dumb enough to imagine that he can "handle it."

(I can quit any time, of course....)

Last of all, through Jay Solo I finally discovered what kind of candy bar I am:

You're Skittles!!! You have a very interesting
personality, you're so unique. You're the kind
of person who always thinks outside of the box.
You're also a very accepting individual, and
believe in inner beauty.


Which kind of candy are you?

Doesn't that Skittles picture look like a float from the Mummers Parade?
