Take a Test Tuesday - The Classic Star Wars Test

This week's test is in honour of my brother since he's such a Star Wars fan. He's just a fan though, not a fanatic. I mean he's never dressed up as any of the characters. He doesn't attend the conventions. Plus he has a wife. Enough said.

So Tickle after some lackluster results last week how did we do this week? Which Star Wars character am I?

Take this test at Tickle


You're Obi-Wan Kenobi


The Classic Star Wars Test

Brought to you by Tickle

You got it back Tickle, good for you. I am Obi-Wan. I do enjoy "giving back to the community" in many ways. I always donate to the food drive. I never litter. I'm an avid recycler. We adopted a family in need this Christmas. Helping little old ladies cross the street. Every little bit helps. I do like to give others the benefits of my mistakes. Like cutting the tip of your daughter's finger off is sooooo not a good idea. Or signing a cell phone contract for a monthly rate of $35 will likely cost you double that once they're done adding on their system fees, 911 fees, dialing the number 6 surcharges and so on.

I have always thought I'm "an excellent judge of character". Perfect example, the weekend I first met Mel. Right away I had a feeling about her. The email she sent me after that weekend proved I was right. She, of course, thanked me for my hospitality and then she wrote that she hoped I didn't think she was shifty because she wasn't. Well, I thought to myself with some rather smug satisfaction, only a truly shifty person would send an email to tell you they weren't a shifty person. Like I said.... excellent judge of character. In all honesty though, the first time I met Mel I just knew she would fit. And she does, like she's been with us forever.

As for "teaching life lessons without being preachy", well I don't know about the teaching part. I still feel like a kid playing grown up some of the time. Abby seems to be turning out okay so I must be doing something a little bit right. We won't talk about how she habitually stuffs things up her nose. I really do try not to be preachy. I have found a lot of the time a person looking for advice is really just looking for some one to listen to them and I have been told I'm a great listener. Just don't tell them it's because I usually have no idea what to say.

So there you have it folks, I have to say I'm happy with the results of that test.
Tickle score 4 wins; 1 loss.
