can castanets be used as weapons?
I'm trying to teach Sev some flamenco steps. We had a flamenco dancer come to the library today and teach the kids, and us, a little about the dance, and by the end of the program, we were all rattling castanets and shaking our hips and twirling our hands and arms and shouting, "Olé!" Tremendous fun!

Needless to say, Sev is not interested.

You know what, Sev? ::clatter of castanets:: You're a wet blanket. No one likes a wet blanket. They're all damp and stuff. I hope you didn't get the parchments wet.

You Are Rain!

You are normally a quiet, calm person. You enjoy spending time alone, but you have a gentle, loving personality. You are always there to help people.
What Type of Weather Are You?

So I'm a soft day? Maybe with an occasional rainbow? That's kinda cozy....




you are lightcyan
#E0FFFF

Your dominant hues are green and blue. You're smart and you know it, and want to use your power to help people and relate to others. Even though you tend to battle with yourself, you solve other people's conflicts well.

Your saturation level is very low - you have better things to do than jump headfirst into every little project. You make sure your actions are going to really accomplish something before you start because you hate wasting energy making everyone else think you're working.

Your outlook on life is very bright. You are sunny and optimistic about life and others find it very encouraging, but remember to tone it down if you sense irritation.

I definitely think about things before jumping into them, especially when those things involve a large time or energy commitment. And nothing new with the intelligence and optimism assessment. I just wish I didn't have to be so pastel. :)




Donatello

77% Intelligence, 29% Seriousness, 8% Extraversion and 20% Evil!

You are the brains behind the operation. Smart, intelligent, knowledgable, whatever you want to call it. You can also fix almost anything and are good with machines/gadgets. Sometimes you can be withdrawn from your brothers because you're always thinking. You're actually not much of a fighter, to be honest. You would much rather talk things out than resort to violence. Your one ambition in life is to discover true peace with your inner self and finally have time to work on your inventions. Good luck with that! (Although that might be hard to do if you continue being a ninja. Just sayin'.)
Which TMNT Character Are You?

It's been way too long since I was into this show. Michelangelo was always my favorite, but I'm really not a Michelangelo-type, more's the pity. I just wish I could remember more about the other TMNTs. Should I really be one of them, instead?!

You are a thunderstorm!
You have mixed emotions and are very independent. People say you're intelligent and you will work hard for what you want. You will be a successful person!

I like this one. The pic had lots of great lightning!

you are olive
#808000

Your dominant hues are red and green, so you're definately not afraid to get in and stir things up. You have no time for most people's concerns, you'd rather analyze with your head than be held back by some random "gut feeling".

Your saturation level is very high - you are all about getting things done. The world may think you work too hard but you have a lot to show for it, and it keeps you going. You shouldn't be afraid to lead people, because if you're doing it, it'll be done right.

Your outlook on life can be bright or dark, depending on the situation. You are flexible and see things objectively.

Works for me. Olive is not a good color for my complexion, though. It makes me look sickly.

You are the eldest of your brothers and pretty much the leader. You are very loving, but you can be serious at times too. Preparation is your middle name. A ninja can never be too cautious! You care for your brothers dearly and hate to see feuds between them. Michelangelo worries you the most. He can be reckless at times, but as long as you're there to guide him, you need not fret. Not to mention Master Splinter has taught you well. Although you can be a little overbearing sometimes, you like to have fun and relax just like anybody else. Your favorite memories are from all the times you've sat with your brothers around the dinner table and listened to Master Splinter's stories.

I'm so not a leader. People just don't listen to me. Even though I'm right. ;)

I bet they'd listen to you if you were a TMNT, though! :D I like both thunderstorm and olive for you, too, but I completely understand about the not being able to wear olive. I can't really wear light cyan, myself. As with almost all pastels, as soon as someone sees me wearing them, they drop about 10 years off my age. It's a bit awkward.

Well, I'm a thunderstorm and Leonardo, so my original contribution to the quizzes is COLOR!

you are darkredviolet
#600B40

Your dominant hues are red and magenta. You love doing your own thing and going on your own adventures, but there are close friends you know you just can't leave behind. You can influence others on days when you're patient, but most times you just want to go out, have fun, and do your own thing.

Your saturation level is high - you get into life and have a strong personality. Everyone you meet will either love you or hate you - either way, your goal is to get them to change the world with you. You are very hard working and don't have much patience for people without your initiative.

Your outlook on life is slightly darker than most people's. You try to see things for what they are and face situations honestly. You'd rather get to the point than look for what's good.

You so, so are darkredviolet. Didn't you want to dye your hair that color and style it like some old-fashioned movie starlet once upon a time?
