I've made some negative comments on this survey in the past, but this year I can see the questions evolving a bit more toward the kind of objectivity I believe is appropriate.

My only significant objection this year is to the question about the population of the "town" you live in, which leaves no way for the respondent to specify that there is no town at all. Some of us live in rural locations. Duh. Wouldn't it be interesting to know how many?

Addendum: There is another, more extensive and rather more scientific survey that is presented by the University of Waterloo and Niagara Community College. You can take that survey as well. I recommend doing both.

M.C.A. Hogarth, (haikujaguar) announced that she would do single card drawings from her Balance Cards for an hour this afternoon, and I got in just in time. Here is the reading:


The Liegeman
The Liegeman


Right. I hand you the Liegeman, not knowing what you need it for... your life? A question you have? A story?

Nevertheless, this is a stalwart, the archetype of loyalty to a good cause or a worthy person. The Liegeman appears when those things are needful... or being abused. I imagine in your case a contented man, with well-worn armor, who has no issue with his lot. He is glad to be where he is. Perhaps you are too, serving what ideal inspires this feeling in you. That would make me glad, if so.

*passes tea*


I found this singularly appropriate, especially since I just asked for a card with no other information offered. I also recommend her writing, in particular the book The Worth of a Shell which is available from Amazon in both print and e-book formats.
