Romantically, a soft, sweet, heart and charming, insecurity rule. You might, however, be held back from love by that nagging little fear of, well, growing up. Ya think? But, like the adorable Mr. Bing himself, it's just because you care so much and don't want to let anyone down.

BOOK:
I am "I, Robot"

by Isaac Asimov

If you were a type of paper, you would be pulp.

COUNTRY:
France

Most people think you're snobby, but it's really just that you're better than everyone else.  At least you're more loyal to the real language, the fine arts, and the fine wines than anyone else.  You aren't worth beans in a fight, unless you're really short, but you're so good at other things that it usually doesn't matter.  Some of your finest works were intended to be short-term projects.

TEMPERMENT:
Guardian SJ
(And I know from other tests that I'm an ESTJ or ISTJ).

    Guardians, are the cornerstone of society, for they are the temperament given to serving and preserving our most important social institutions. Guardians have natural talent in managing goods and services--from supervision to maintenance and supply--and they use all their skills to keep things running smoothly in their families, communities, schools, churches, hospitals, and businesses.
    Guardians can have a lot of fun with their friends, but they are quite serious about their duties and responsibilities. Guardians take pride in being dependable and trustworthy; if there's a job to be done, they can be counted on to put their shoulder to the wheel. Guardians also believe in law and order, and sometimes worry that respect for authority, even a fundamental sense of right and wrong, is being lost. Perhaps this is why Guardians honor customs and traditions so strongly--they are familiar patterns that help bring stability to our modern, fast-paced world.
    Practical and down-to-earth, Guardians believe in following the rules and cooperating with others. They are not very comfortable winging it or blazing new trails; working steadily within the system is the Guardian way, for in the long run loyalty, discipline, and teamwork get the job done right. Guardians are meticulous about schedules and have a sharp eye for proper procedures. They are cautious about change, even though they know that change can be healthy for an institution. Better to go slowly, they say, and look before you leap.
    Guardians make up as much as 40 to 45 percent of the population.

I've been thinking. This is sometimes a good thing. More often, it is not.

Definition of a "fan,” short for "fanatic":
------------
Main Entry: fa·nat·ic
Pronunciation: f&-'na-tik
Variant(s): or fa·nat·i·cal /-ti-k&l/
Function: adjective
Etymology: Latin ‘fanaticus’ inspired by a deity, frenzied, from ‘fanum’ temple
Date: 1550
: marked by excessive enthusiasm and often intense uncritical devotion
------------
    This, I am not. I may have been, but am now no longer.
    When I think of a "fan," I think of long hours spent waiting for tickets to a concert or movie; of people obsessing in trying to get into the lives of their fanaticism; of stalking, arrests and court orders; of salt cellars, caps and aprons.
    I do believe the word “fan” can mean, to a lesser degree, one who simply enjoys something else, i.e. Good Eats. However, I cannot, in good conscious, call myself a “fan” any more.
    If I need a moniker, then I shall call myself a “devotee” which is defined as “an ardent follower, supporter, or enthusiast.” Maybe even “enthusiast,” or since I enjoy Spanish, “aficionado”. I'm still deciding.
    I believe in all that Good Eats stands for. I believe it has a lot to offer in educating the masses about cooking, history and science. I believe that Mr. Brown has created a show that has filled a much-needed void in Television-dom.

bulletI will follow Good Eats so that I may learn to cook.
bulletI will be a supporter of Good Eats in continuing the GEFP.
bulletI am an enthusiast of Good Eats in getting others to join this Message Board.
bulletBut I’m not a fanatic of Good Eats.

    Any of you who want to take my place as the #1 Fan, the position is now available.

Mikemenn
#1 Good Eats Devotee (or Aficionado or Enthusiast)

FOLLOW-UP: I've settled on Aficionado.
