birthday personality analysis thingie

Posted by inababes at 01:25 AM on October 19, 2003.

Your birth date describes who we are, what we are good at and what our inborn abilities are. It also points to what we have to learn and the challenges we are facing. To figure out your
Birth Number, add all the numbers in the birth date together like in the example until there is
only one digit..............

A Birth Number does not prevent you from being anything you want to be, it will just color your
choice differently and give you a little insight.

Example! : March 20, 1950

3 + 20 + 1950 = 1973
= 1 + 9 + 7 + 3
= 20
= 2 + 0
= 2

2 is the Birth Number to read for the birth date in the example.
Your number is _____,


#1 THE ORIGINATOR

#2 THE PEACEMAKER

#3 THE LIFE OF THE PARTY

#4 THE CONSERVATIVE

#5 THE NONCONFORMIST

#6 THE ROMANTIC

#7 THE INTELLECTUAL

#8 THE BIG SHOT

#9 THE PERFORMER





# 1 - THE ORIGINATOR

1's are originals. Coming up with new ideas and executing them is natural.

Having things their own way is another trait that gets them as being stubborn and arrogant. 1's are extremely honest and do well to learn some diplomacy skills. They like to take the initiative and are often leaders or bosses, as they like to be the best. Being self-employed is definitely helpful for them. Lesson to learn: Others' ideas might be just as good Or better and to stay open minded.

Famous 1's: Tom Hanks, Robert Redford, Hulk Hogan, Carol Burnett, Wynona Judd, Nancy Reagan,
and Raquel Welch.



# 2 - THE PEACEMAKER

2's are the born diplomats. They are aware of others' needs and moods and often think of others before themselves. Naturally analytical and very intuitive they don't like to be alone. Friendship and companionship is very important and can lead them to be successful in life, but on the other hand they'd rather be alone than in an uncomfortable relationship.

Being naturally shy they should learn to boost their self-esteem and express themselves freely and seize the moment and not put things off..............

Famous 2's: President Bill Clinton, Madonna,
Whoopee Goldberg, Thomas Edison, and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.



# 3 - THE LIFE OF THE PARTY

3's are idealists. They are very creative, social, charming, romantic, and easygoing. They start many things, but don't always see them through. They like others to be happy and go to great lengths to achieve it. They are very popular and idealistic. They should learn to see the world from a more realistic point of view.


Famous 3's: Alan Alda, Ann Landers, Bill Cosby,
Melanie Griffith, Salvador Dali, and Jodi Foster.



# 4 - THE CONSERVATIVE

4's are sensible and traditional. They like order
and routine. They only act when they fully understand what they are expected to do. They
like getting their hands dirty and working hard.
They are attracted to the outdoors and feel an affinity with nature. They are prepared to wait and can be stubborn and persistent. They should learn to be more flexible and to be nice to themselves.

Famous 4's: Neil Diamond, Margaret Thatcher,
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tina Turner, Paul Hogan, Oprah Winfrey, and Tim M. Reyes.



# 5 - THE NONCONFORMIST

5's are the explorers. Their natural curiosity, risk taking, and enthusiasm often land them in hot water. They need diversity, and don't like to be stuck in a rut. The whole world is their school and they see a learning possibility in every situation. The questions
never stop. They are well advised to look before they take action and make sure they have all the facts before jumping to conclusions.

Famous 5's: Abraham Lincoln, Charlotte Bronte,
Jessica Walter, Vincent Van Gogh, Bette Midler, Helen Keller and Mark Hamil.



# 6 - THE ROMANTIC

6's are idealistic and need to feel useful to be happy. A strong family connection is important to them. Their emotions influence their decisions. They have a strong urge to take care of others and to help. They are very loyal and make great teachers. They like art or music. They make loyal friends who take the
friendship seriously. 6's should learn to differentiate between what they can change and what they cannot.

Famous 6's: Albert Einstein, Jane Seymour, John
Denver, Meryl Streep, Christopher Columbus, and Goldie Hawn.



# 7 - THE INTELLECTUAL

7's are the searchers. Always probing for hidden
information, they find it difficult to accept things at face value. Emotions don't sway their decisions. Questioning everything in life, they don't like to be questioned themselves. They're never off to a fast start, and their motto is slow and steady wins the race. They come across as philosophers and being very knowledgeable, and sometimes as loners. They are technically inclined and make great researchers uncovering information. They like secrets. They live
in their own world and should learn what is cceptable and what not in the world at large..............

Famous 7's: William Shakespeare, Lucille Ball, Michael Jackson, Joan Baez, and Princess Diana.



# 8 - THE BIG SHOT

8's are the problem solvers. They are professional, blunt and to the point, have good judgment and are decisive. They have grand plans and like to live the good life. They take charge of people. They view people objectively. They let you know in no uncertain terms that they are the bosses. They should learn to exude their decisions on their own needs rather than on what others want.

Famous 8's: Edgar Cayce, Barbara Streisand, George Harrison, Jane Fonda, Pablo Picasso, Aretha Franklin, and Nostrodamus.



#9 - THE PERFORMER

9's are natural entertainers. They are very caring and generous, giving away their last dollar to help. With their charm, they have no problem making friends and nobody is a stranger to them. They have so many
different personalities that people around them have a hard time understanding them. They are like chameleons, ever changing and blending in. They have tremendous luck, but also can suffer from extremes in fortune and mood. To be successful, they need to build a loving foundation.

Famous 9's: Albert Schweitzer, Shirley MacLaine,
Harrison Ford, Jimmy Carter, and Elvis Presley.

preventing identity theft

Posted by inababes at 06:20 PM on September 11, 2003.

And because I couldn't resist one more forwarded email....


AN ATTORNEY'S ADVICE
Read this and make a copy for your files in case you need to refer to it some
day.

Maybe we should all take some of his advice!

A corporate attorney sent the following out to the employees in his company:

The next time you order checks have only your initials (instead of first name)
and last name put on them. If someone takes your check book they will not know
if you sign your checks with just your initials or your first name but your
bank will know how you sign your checks.

When you are writing checks to pay on your credit card accounts, DO NOT put the
complete account number on the "For" line. Instead, just put the last four
numbers. The credit card company knows the rest of the number and anyone who might
be handling your check as it passes through all the check processing channels
won't have access to it.

Put your work phone # on your checks instead of your home phone.

If you have a PO Box use that instead of your home address. Never have your SS#
printed on your checks (DUH!) you can add it if it is necessary. But if you
have it printed, anyone can get it.

Place the contents of your wallet on a photocopy machine, do both sides of each
license, credit card, etc. You will know what you had in your wallet and all of
the account numbers and phone numbers to call and cancel.

Keep the photocopy in a safe place. I also carry a photocopy of my passport
when I travel either here or abroad.

We've all heard horror stories about fraud that's committed on us in stealing a
name, address, Social Security number, credit cards, etc.

Unfortunately I, an attorney, have firsthand knowledge because my wallet was
stolen last month. Within a week, the thieve(s) ordered an expensive monthly cell
phone package, applied for a VISA credit card, had a credit line approved to
buy a Gateway computer, received a PIN number from DMV to change my driving
record information online, and more.

But here's some critical information to limit the damage in case this happens
to you or someone you know:

We have been told we should cancel our credit cards immediately.

But the key is having the toll free numbers and your card numbers handy so you
know whom to call. Keep those where you can find them easily.

File a police report immediately in the jurisdiction where it was stolen, this
proves to credit providers you were diligent, and is a first step toward an
investigation (if there ever is one).

But here's what is perhaps most important: (I never even thought to do this)..

Call the three national credit reporting organizations immediately to place a
fraud alert on your name and Social Security number.

I had never heard of doing that until advised by a bank that called to tell me
an application for credit was made over the Internet in my name.

The alert means any company that checks your credit knows your information was
stolen and they have to contact you by phone to authorize new credit.

By the time I was advised to do this, almost two weeks after the theft, all the
damage had been done.

There are records of all the credit checks initiated by the thieves' purchases,
none of which I knew about before placing the alert. Since then, no additional
damage has been done, and the thieves threw my wallet away this
weekend.(someone turned it in). It seems to have stopped them in their tracks.

The numbers are:

Equifax: 1-800-525-6285
Experian (formerly TRW): 1-888-397-3742
Trans Union: 1-800-680-7289 Social
Security Administration (fraud line): 1-800-269-0271

We pass along jokes on the Internet; we pass along just about everything.

Pass this information along. It could really help someone you care about.

x-men junkie

Posted by inababes at 11:04 AM on September 7, 2003.

beast
You are Beast!

You are brilliant and extremely clever. You can
handle almost any problem swiftly and
efficiently. You are devoted to philosophy and
are always up for a good discussion.
Sometimes, though, your anger gets the best of
you and you upset those whom you care about.


Which X-Men character are you most like?
brought to you by Quizilla

well, beast is interesting, that's for sure but gambit has always been my favorite. he's the only cartoon character i've ever had a crush on.
