What wolf are you? Quiz Created on GoToQuiz

After reading the first three of four books in Patricia Briggs' "Alpha and Omega" series, I realize that when I created Argos, an Omega wolf as she defines it would be just about exactly what I intended. I've always said that Argos is myself, in a sense, so when I came across this quiz I figured I should take it and see. There's the outcome.

Day started sunny but turned cloudy in mid-afternoon. Then thunder, rain showers, more thunder, a rattle of small hail, more thunder. Nothing serious, at least not here, just nuisance.

Fortunately, we went to the open house of the Sun City Model Railroaders while it was still nice out, since they feature a garden railroad setup, as well as indoor O, HO, and N scale layouts. There was a Z scale layout in a briefcase, too, which was kinda cute but really tiny.

I have to admit I had a negative reaction to the environment, though. The first people we encountered in the garden area were loudly discussing the "fact" that Obama is not a true citizen and that his birth certificate was "faked" in order to get a black into the Oval Office. It's incredible to me that anyone takes that stuff seriously. (Not to mention the fact that his birth certificate is irrelevant as long as his mother is a US citizen, which she is.)

A lot of money was in evidence. Unfortunately, not a single black or hispanic person was visible, and a lot of narrow-minded attitudes were being expressed all through the exhibits. Way to make a good impression folks.

I have encountered a lot of that. Old farts in the hobby carrying on about conspiracies, government, politics, religion.
From them, I know all about the black helicopters, alien cover-ups, encoded stickers on the back of traffic signs, and endless other whacky topics.
I'm here for the trains, so hush. But it seems they are there for the captive audiences.
