Assorted crap.

You know those silly online personality quizzes that some people
create? Well, I threw together a few of them for giggle value, never
intending to show them to more than a few people... they were:
To my surprise, the Science Fiction Writer quiz suddenly became popular among
real science fiction writers. So I figured I'd better let everyone see
these, dumb though they are. (Warning: crude language is used.)
The javascript code they're constructed with is readily adaptable by anyone
wanting to make quizzes of their own. (I heard that someone was planning
to turn the SF writer quiz into a classical author quiz, but if they have,
I haven't found it...)

Does your life revolve around your psychological/spiritual growth
process? Want to meet other geeks in the same condition?
Follow this link to learn about the
Personal Growth Geek Code! No, you won't meet anybody
here, but now you and they will have a tool to know all about each
other at a glance. Well, maybe a prolonged squint.

(This is also in the muckraking section.) Take a trip back to
those unforgettable fun-filled years of the Reagan administration, with a little
software item called The Reagan Years.
Any day you run the The Reagan Years program, it will write out
a screenful of news about various events that happened on the same calendar
day during the nineteen eighties. All the scandals, embarrassments,
and fuckups, gathered into a single package organized by date. Go
to the The Reagan Years page to read about
it and/or get a desktop version, or go directly to http://paulkienitz.net/reagan/
to see today's Reagan history right in your browser. (Current
version is release 3; further material for release 4 is being accumulated.)

Several years ago, I decided to write a little rant about a
subject I found mildly bothersome, and spent about two days
researching and composing it. It soon became the most
widely-read thing I'd ever done, receiving hundreds of hits
a day. So I had to keep updating and expanding it...
It's called 48 Reasons Not To Get A
Boob Job. Gosh, I just can't puzzle out why a page
about breasts gets so many search engine hits.
There's also a page of even
more reasons sent in by readers. (last updated 10/3/04)

And finally... Micro-Rants! Here's the
original Micro-Rants page... random opinions and notions that could
have a full rant page written about them, but don't -- items important enough
to mention, but not important enough to put much time or research into.
Something more than a static page and something less than a blog; check back
from time to time. The political
micro-rants and the arts&entertainment
micro-rants pages are spinoffs of this. (last updated 6/22/02)
And oh yeah, there's also the miscellaneous
energy topics micro-rants page. It contains all kinds of
information and advocacy on subjects having to do with energy issues --
particularly eco-gearhead topics such as electric cars.
