Can't resist a blogging fad...
Yeah, I take these "Which [blank] are you?" quizzes. I like most of them.
Which Simpsons character am I? I was kinda hoping to be Groundskeeper Willie, but...
You are Lisa Simpson. You are bright and
concientious but unfortunately not well-liked.
Cheer up though, someday you'll be running
Springfield and all those who teased you will
be your loyal minions.

Which book am I?
You're Anarchy, State, and Utopia!
by Robert Nozick
If it were up to you, there would probably be no government at all.
But then you'd have to deal with there being no government, and nobody likes that. So
you've decided that hiring a few security guards is okay. Getting rid of that nasty
tax collector would sure be nice, though. He keeps getting in the way of you making
the money you so richly deserve! Everyone who believes in you happens to be fairly
well off.
Take the Book Quiz
at the Blue Pyramid.
Okay, so I threw away that Anne of Green Gables result...and Siddhartha. And Love in the Time of Cholera.
Ah, and which rule of civil procedure am I? Thought you'd never ask...
YOU ARE RULE 11!
You were designed to make sure that attorneys in
federal cases make reasonable inquiries into
fact or law before submitting pleadings,
motions, or other papers. You were a real
hardass in 1983, when you snuffed out all legal
creativity from federal proceedings and
embarassed well-meaning but overzealous
attorneys. You loosened up a bit in 1993, when
you began allowing plaintiffs to make
allegations in their complaints that are likely
to have evidenciary support after discovery,
and when you allowed a 21 day period for the
erring attorney to withdraw the errant motion.
Sure, you keep everything running on the up and
up, but it's clear that things would be a lot
more fun without you around.
