You are the Aristocrat, the embodiment of steampunk elegance and poise. For you, dressing steampunk is first and foremost about simply looking good, with accessories and details to follow. However, this does not mean that you ignore the demands of creating a “steampunk look.” Your outfits weave together a balance between technology and style, and between period accuracy and beautiful anachronism. While your fashion inspiration may come from anywhere across the Victorian social spectrum, you always find a way to make your outfit beautiful. You will probably be found in the clothes of the steam age elite simply because of the greater elegance available to them. Chances are you dress this way because you like it, and you would still dress in this manner even if steampunk was not a popular interest.
You are conjuration, the art of summoning minions to do your bidding! You are social and commanding and have a good deal of sway with your friends. Whether that's because of your social skills or your ability to pluck them out of the universe is up for debate...
You scored as Emma Frost, Emma Frost is a former enemy of the X-Men but has joined them. She finds certain rules about not reading minds without permission to confining, and she still retains a bit of a bad-girl side. Some x-men are not certain of her alligence, and for good reason. Powers: Telepathy, Can turn her skin into Diamond, Psychic persuasion
Fun-loving. Passionate. Arrogant. Practically an animal, you are of House Baratheon.
You are of a more dominant personality, which justifies your hold on the Iron Throne. But is it really your throne? Single-minded and stubborn, you won’t rest until you’ve accomplished your goal; unfortunately for you, you’re too simple to progress any further. You can warm the seat of a chair well enough, but gods save us all if you actually tried to control anything. You can barely control yourself! You’re horrible at long-term planning and you’re too self-involved to keep yourself from being manipulated. In chess, you are the rook: short, sturdy, and direct—but ultimately an unessential piece destined to fall as the unintentional shield of bigger (and badder) pieces.
You are extroverted, which makes you a hero to small children the realm over. But who the hell cares what children think!? You may have a bold personality, and you’ve probably got courage and charisma in spades, but those allies you attract will only stick with you until they discover your shortcomings. The friends you make in life are likely those who are looking for a life-long quest. If you’re smart, you’ll never give them a chance to be disappointed in you.
Finally, you are also untrustworthy. Does this surprise you? Playful and high-spirited as you are, you find yourself attracted to glory, and glory always means trouble. If you die without achieving greatness of some kind, you’ll likely die unhappy. Your need for success is a basic need that throbs beneath your personality, and you’ll do whatever you need to do to make it so. When the opportunity presents itself, you’ll spring like a damn jack-in-the-box.
Representative characters include: Robert Baratheon, Renly Baratheon, and Joffrey "Baratheon"

When playing the game of thrones, you play it like you want to win.
Lots of fun. And I have uploaded and provided pics! Hopefully thumbnails will keep me from having to look up how to do LJ cuts (as it's been a long while) but if people have issues let me know.
Hey, if Gaiman doesn't LJ cut, why should I!? ;)
Waiting in line to see if we won a computer. We didn't. Me and Vanessa Angel from Weird Science/Stargate/Kingpin fame. I was like a deer in headlights. The Hue, looking fantastic in a saucy hat. Me, waiting for the Pinnacle to use some of the luxurious Roman baths they call bathrooms.
Muse and Doc Hammer, creator of the Venture Bros. He's hilarious in person and frighteningly witty. Why... Are there -two- Rigel's here? Oh, no.. One's a puppet. The skuling one behind the puppet is the real deal. It took all my self control not to make off with Samantha Carter.
She'd have fit perfectly in my suitcase. Jack Skellington, Pinnacle and myself. I think I'm grabbing his ass. I'd like to also proudly announce our sponsor for this trip, the Motorolla Q.
You scored 7% Tough, 33% Roguish, 23% Friendly, and 38% Charming!
You are the classic rogue, a stylish rake with the devil of a wit and a flair for mischief, and you shake your martinis to waltz time. You are charming and debonair, but slightly untrustworthy, and women should be on their guard. If married, you are simply a bit of a flirt, even if it's just with your own wife...but if you're single, watch out. You usually rein yourself in to concentrate on one lovely beauty at a time, but with you, we never know. You're an inviting partner, but there's a playful devil behind your eyes, and those trying to get close to you should know they're playing with fire. You're stylish and fun, but you follow your own course, which may or may not include a steady gal. Co-stars include Myrna Loy and Carole Lombard, classy ladies with an adventurous streak.

You scored 78% Campaigning, 86% Personality, and 65% Effectiveness!
You have beautiful hair and your campaign manager is extremely effective at making sure everyone sees pictures of it and hears about your likeable personality. You are suave and politically astute, and have an easy time winning the Presidency. But once you get there your work is mediocre...but who cares? You serve two terms, the people love you.
I shall be instituting a weekly (hopefully) Starcraft game on Tuesday nights starting next week in preparation of Starcraft 2 coming out. Anyone interest, feel free to post a reply here.
Secondly:
You are The Magician
Skill, wisdom, adaptation. Craft, cunning, depending on dignity.
Eleoquent and charismatic both verbally and in writing, you are clever, witty, inventive and persuasive.
The Magician is the male power of creation, creation by willpower and desire. In that ancient sense, it is the ability to make things so just by speaking them aloud. Reflecting this is the fact that the Magician is represented by Mercury. He represents the gift of tongues, a smooth talker, a salesman. Also clever with the slight of hand and a medicine man - either a real doctor or someone trying to sell you snake oil.
For those of you that don't watch the Sox games this may be amusing it may not. For anyone that does catch the NESN broadcasts and knows Jerry Remy and Don O. pretty well, this is just another example of their team at work. Absolutely fucking hilarious, I almost died laughing. Watch the whole thing as the best stuff comes further in.
That sums it up about right. I'm horrifically sick, and have been building up to this level of illness for a few days now. I'm not running a fever, but that isn't a good thing as it seems that I'm in fact well -below- 98.6 degrees, resulting in alternating periods of hot flashes and a severe chills. I'm now firmly entrenched in medications, lots of fluid intake, and massive amounts of sleep when that's actually possible.
The Sox season began on a particularly sour note, with Schilling pitching the worst outing I've ever seen from him. (www.38pitches.com for more details) Game again on Wednesday where we can hopefully attempt to recoup some face.
Saw Dirty Dancing for the first time ever. Titanic still reigns for me as the number one of 'popular movies I refuse to see for the sake of seeing them', but Dirty Dancing was up there. It actually wasn't horrible, although terrifically corny.
Wedding plans continue to progress. Everything's coming together nicely, though I think it's time to arrange a weekend to get everyone together for fittings. When are you next up Pinnacle?
Double shift at work tomorrow. Let's hope I feel alot better when I wake up in the morning.
