Dr Phil's Test....

Here are your results to your total points score. So i hope you were all ''Honest'' with yourselves!!!
 
Please Note, ....Those scores that are within 1 or 2 points from the next higher band, will have traits within that next band....


OVER 60 POINTS:   Others  see you as someone they should "handle with  care."  You're seen as vain, self-centered,  and extremely dominant. Others  may admire you, wishing they could be more like  you, but don't always trust you, hesitating to  become too deeply involved with  you.
 
51  TO 60 POINTS:   Others see you as an exciting, highly  volatile, rather impulsive personality, a  natural leader, who's quick to make decisions,  though not always the right ones.  They see  you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will  try anything once, someone who takes chances and  enjoys an adventure.  They enjoy being in  your company because of the excitement you  radiate..
 
41 TO 50  POINTS:  Others see you as fresh, lively, charming,  amusing, practical, and always interesting,  someone who's constantly in the center of  attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to  let it go to their head.  They also see you  as kind, considerate, and understanding, someone  who'll always cheer them up and help them  out.
 
31  TO 40 POINTS:  Others  see you as sensible, cautious, careful &  practical.  They see you as clever, gifted,  or talented, but modest.  Not a person who  makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone  who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and  who expects the same loyalty in return.   Those who really get to know you, realize  it takes a lot to shake your trust in your  friends, but equally that it takes you a long  time to get over if that trust is ever  broken.
 
21 TO 30  POINTS:  Your friends see you as  painstaking and fussy.  They see you as  very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and  steady plodder.  It would really surprise  them if you ever did something  impulsively or  on the spur of the moment, expecting you to  examine everything carefully from every angle  and then, usually decide against it. They think  this reaction is caused partly by your careful  nature.
 
UNDER  21 POINTS:    People think you are shy, nervous, and  indecisive, someone who needs looking after, who  always wants someone else to make the decisions  and who doesn't want to get involved with anyone  or anything! They see you as a worrier who  always sees problems that don't exist.   Some people think you're boring.   Only those who know you well, know that  you aren't...

By the way, ....My score was 43

Vince,

Yes your right, it was a test put together by one of your better known Universities for use by corporate companies on employee testing. I think Dr Phil used it on his programme one time, and became popular among guests and his name just got attached to it from then on....

But is is supposed to be a very real and accurate personality test, according to the top Sociologists in your country. Who am i to argue with them!!  haha!!!

Some of you may recall that last Summer I was ditched by one Chinese lady by text message which simply read 'Our relationship is finished' .  I was a bit miffed by that method of being cast aside.

But today I feel much happier - A multi million pound English footballer has been ditched by his multimillion pound singing star wife by text.  You can guess what she said ' Our relationship is finished"  So if it good enough for them I can no longer complain about the treatment that I received. :icon_cool:

Mind you I did not have five lovers during the time I as with her as the footballer did!!!!

One other problem I need help with.  

My wife has gone to her home city to apply for exit/entry papers for Hong Kong and to sort out a passport at the same time.  She could be away for 5 days.  She left me sufficient food for more than that period including eggs.

Her elder sister has just turned up with another package and it is full of eggs.

My problem is I do not have a recipe for a 90 egg omelette!!!! Yes I now have 90 eggs carefully piled up on my table.  

As well as the recipe how about supplier of gigantic frying pans????

Anyone passing just throw some corn out!!

If I tried hatching them would I be a 'red neck' or a speckled back hen?  

They must think I am off my Clucking head!!!

Willy, first of all I was talking about your reputation before being married (Ref ; Shaun...)  :icon_cheesygrin:

Now as to the eggs...your colostrol level just went through the roof, plugged artries and all.  Several things to do..

1. hatch the eggs (this means sitting on them) and sell the chickens.

2. Talk your wife into a chicken farm.

3. Learn to juggle.

4. Open a "The good egg" restraunt in your neighborhood.

5. Give a free egg to every viagra customer...

6. Sell them to Mcdonalds..

By the way, take the corn they throw out and use it in your "still" that is the redneck way....:icon_cheesygrin::icon_cheesygrin: don't
forget to add suger...

and what ever you do.......don't bump the table....:icon_cheesygrin::icon_cheesygrin::icon_cheesygrin:

and making sure your erstwhile angel is gone:icon_cheesygrin:


Well I had scrambled egg for lunch - 10 eggs.
 By heck these Chinese Chickens lay thick shelled eggs.  Not so easy to break as the UK ones.  The scrambled egg started off as an omellete but did not seem to work out that way.  Like Chinese women the eggs had a mind of their own.

Next meal could well be mushrooms, ham and eggs.  Lots of bloody eggs!!!
