Bloginality

My Bloginality is ISTP


As an ISTP, you are Intraverted, Sensing, Thinking, Perceiving.
This makes your primary focus on Introverted Thinking with Extraverted Sensing

This is defined as a SP personality, which is part of Carl Jung's Artisans (Sensation Seeking) type, and more specifically the Crafters or Mechanics.

Because of your desire for action and independance, you will change the format of blogging or design frequently to keep it interesting and different. Your loyalty may have you reading the same blogs over a long period of time. Even though you could be easily bored with blogging, you might find that because you like following a project through, this is a good way for you to use your alone time to sort the facts you pick up through the day.

Let me be very clear on this..

I love Netflix. Netflix is the place to go if your a movie geek. You name it, they have it. Their are very few movies that I've wanted and have not been available through them. I've been a subscriber for two months now, and am super happy with it. The turnaround time for me is very fast. Usually if I mail back a movie on Monday, by Wednesday, sometimes Thursday I have my next movie. No late fees, keep them as long as you want, I've had Capturing the Friedmans for about a month. For $22 a month you can have up to three movies in hand, and as you mail them back, you get your next on one your list. Right now I've got about 45 flicks listed.

Warning...For comic book fans only

I found this article on Newsarama regarding variant covers. I love comics, and if I had the dough I'd fork over the cash for the variants. But unlike "collectors" that killed the industry a few years back, I'm in it for the love, not money. If I buy a variant I do it for the art and writing. I'd never spend money on a variant if it took away from my normal buying list. The article gives a nice insight on how the industry works, and how it affects dealers.

Keepin it light.

First off the new blogger is the shit. Hopefully I'll be able to find time to integrate my favorite links onto my new page. Taking a quick look at the html code, off the bat I'm intimidated. It seems to be a little out of my league but I'll still give it a shot. I'd like to publicly admit to a problem I've been struggling with for some time. Writing is extremely hard for me. When I do things that I care about, and are important to me, I do them slowly. Its been this way all my life. For example, when I played basketball back in the day I earned a nickname, "Slo-Mo". (I emphasize earn, because I was given my nickname, by peers. Unlike that punk Deion Sanders, who gave himself the nickname "Prime Time". You gotta be full of it to give yourself a nickname and talk about yourself in the third person.) I had a devastating underhand, across the lane, scoop shot. That shot was, dare I say unstoppable. It was my signature move. And like a signature moves in video games(anyone remember Mike Tyson's Punch Out Blink, Blink), you could see it coming a mile away. It was a slow, longwinded move, but it couldn't be stopped. Hence the name Slow-Mo. Back to the subject, I'm a slow-mo writer. When I write about something I care about it takes forever. I've had a blog entry about Pat Tillman as a draft for well over a week. I just can't find the time to put the energy into writing something meaningful. It takes to much time out of the limited "freetime" I have. As a result I've been keeping my entries light hearted over the last few months. Those are the only types of blogs that I can sneak in between the work day. Now looking at this entry, it took me 30+minutes to write. Its late 1am, I gotta go. Quick update on the job situation. We acquired our biggest competitor in the Miami market, on Wednesday. They had a staff of eight people and we took on 5 of them. They've been moving into our offices, and its been super crazy. I have another editor to work with so that's very cool. Downside though, he talks way to much.

best,
