Today's Quizzes:

Which Heinlein Book Should You Have Been A Character In?

You belong in Starship Troopers.  Your idea of a good time is bouncing across an alien battlefield blasting the foes of humanity into extinction.

By the way, is it just me or .... The artist who did the cover for this edition never read the book, right?  Because sure as hell said artist never actually read the description of a Mobile Infantry combat suit.  Heinlein described the Infantry's powered armor very clearly, and this ain't it.

And:   Which Illuminati are you?

The Bavarian Illuminati. Fnord.

Bavaria:

Power for Power's Sake.

Fnord.

No, no, they've got me all wrong.  It's not power for power's sake.  It's power to be able to stand there facing the guy who's just told you to hand over 30% of what you have because a bunch of other people you've never seen or met agreed among themselves that it belongs to them, look him straight in the eye, and tell him "Fuck you and the horse you rode in on" .... and make it stick.
