how come I love shit like this? I just laugh and laugh when it works out, though the whole time I was thinking, at the bottom it's going to say, "And the answer is, you're a dumb ass git for sticking with this lame 'puzzle'"

Which is probably correct, I fully admit.

But it worked!

Ohhhh, my bad. I just did it again.. and it did match up. I picked 6 times a week and my birth year is 1973.. in the month of August. So I got 630… so yeah, it does work. :cool:

thanks I did, always go w/your first instinct, for some reason I changed it as I was thinking it aligned somewhat with being left-wing (little mnemonic device that doesn't work).

Would that mean you think those who are more logical (left-brained, but your mistake would have them as right-brained) are more naturally right-wingers?

I knew that was going to get a comment; no, I do not think that logical people lean more to the right, I find that a rather offensive opinion actually, I just see right-brainers as being more open and less conservative, hence liberal.
