31 August 2003: "Diversions II"
If you haven't already seen the Country Quiz at Blue Pyramid, you might want to check it out. It's good for killing a couple of minutes in amusing fashion.
So what result did I get? 
You're the United Nations!
Most people think you're ineffective, but you are trying to completely save the world from itself, so there's always going to be a long way to go. You're always the one trying to get friends to talk to each other, enemies to talk to each other, anyone who can to just talk instead of beating each other about the head and torso. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, and you get very schizophrenic as a result. But your heart is in the right place, and sometimes also in New York.
Leaving aside the fact that UN isn't technically a country, this should come as a surprise to no-one, really.
As an extra, how about coming up with your porn star stage name? This works as follows:- Take the name of your first pet;
- Take the name of the street you grew up on
I have to fudge a bit, since I never had any pets growing up (due to a lot of moving around, living in houses not well suited to pets, etc.) and I've taken the name of the cat of one of my childhood friends. Thus, I end up with "Rufus van Neck" which, I'm sure you'll agree, has a certain ring to it. My wife's is "Pixie Hamilton," which is even better.
