Now, wouldn't one think, with all the money and painstaking care involved in the conservation of polar bears, that someone would have the inkling that checking on the basics should come first..?

I do have a lot to be thankful for. I have my friends and family. I have my wonderful cats. I have my health, my home and my employment. Although none of these things are perfect, they are important.
Happy Thanksgiving, and here's hope for another year of things to be thankful for!

Your result for Test Who You Are in the Steampunk Ether City of Salmagundi...
Arcanist-Major Edmund Ras (the Sorcerer)
19% Cerys, 93% Ras, 37% Bell, 31% Wilde, 14% LeClerc, 13% Kendrick and 3% Fuzzy!

You are Arcanist-Major Edmund Ras of the Praxian Alliance, assigned as liaison to the Legion of Peace. You are a scholar, a scientist, and a sorcerer, in a city that distrusts the first two and despises the third. Though you are kind-hearted and concerned about the betterment of others, the hostility you routinely encounter has left you jaded and sardonic. You have a sharp tongue and a very dark sense of humor, and you delight in mocking those with irrational fears and prejudices. Your outlook on life teeters between the optimistic and the resigned, and you still can’t decide if humanity is worth the trouble. Still, even if humanity is doomed to self-destruction you are willing to risk your life to give it just one more generation.

Your result for The Steampunk Style Test...
The Explorer
18% Elegant, 31% Technological, 30% Historical, 88% Adventurous and 37% Playful!

You are the Explorer, the embodiment of steampunk’s adventuring spirit. For you, clothing should be rugged and reliable, and just as functional as it is attractive. You probably prefer khaki or leather, and your accessories are as likely to include weapons as technological gizmos. You probably wear boots and gloves, and maybe a pith helmet. Most of what you wear is functional, and if you happen to wear goggles people had better believe that you use them. In addition to Victorian exploration gear, your outfit probably includes little knickknacks from your various travels. Above all, you are a charming blend of rugged Victorian daring and exotic curiosity.

Fine and dandy that we apologized for it...but that doesn't mean a thing. It should not have happened in the first place.
