Come on. Fess up! You have a certain degree of interest for silly tests. Who doesn't? And who wouldn't like to read their friends/acquaintances answers? Well, this is the perfect way to get those answers... and feeling extremely selfless today -being Monday, so close to Easter holidays, and lacking in inspiration-...you are even getting mine!


Venga. Confesadlo! Todos tenemos un cierto grado de interes por los tests mas ridiculos. Y quien no? Y a quien no le gustaria leer las respuestas a los tests de sus amigos y conocidos? Pues con ese fin corre por internet el siguiente cuestionario... y en un acto de generosidad sin limites, he escrito mis respuestas! Ademas, hoy es lunes y casi fiesta y hay poca inspiracion..En ingles, porque no hay tiempo (ni ganas) de traducir al espaniol.


Welcome to the next edition of getting to know your friends.
What you're supposed to do is copy (not forward) this entire
e-mail and paste it onto a new e-mail that you'll send.
Change all of the answers so they apply to you. Then, send
this to a whole bunch of people you know *INCLUDING* the
person who sent it to you. The theory is that you'll learn a lot
of little known facts about your friends. Only takes a couple
of mins!
