Over at Owlish Mutterings, he linked to this "Job Predictor".
According to this, Rocket Jones' ideal job is trained assassin. Cool.
And when I type in my real name (Ted Phipps), it says I should become a pirate.
You should start being nicer to me.
Let's see... full name (Robert T Phipps)... Yeehaw! My ideal job is a lottery winner - no need to work !
I like this game.

Posted by: Oorgo at September 2, 2005 03:27 PMI get to be a Supermodel, using my real name. But my husband does too. So, I'll give that profession up...you know, too much competition and all.
I guess I'll have to stick with being a Brain Surgeon then.
Pixy, that's a fine profession, full of dignity and tradition and tarter sauce.

Posted by: Susie at September 3, 2005 12:39 AMA teasmaid is the English equivalent of a coffeemaker, specifically for hot tea, as far as I can tell. The name may be old too; most of the references I could find were to the 50's.
Posted by: owlish at September 3, 2005 12:20 PMAah. Thank you, owlish! I presumed that that was pretty much what it was, I'd just never heard the term before.
Posted by: Tuning Spork at September 3, 2005 05:02 PMBWAAAHAHAHAHA!! With my online surname I get "Circus Freak". With my real last name I get "Teacher to Help Pensioners to Drive".
My husband gets "Village Idiot".
