    I'm trying different tack to encourage more quizzers today.

    If you DON'T want me to post a pic of myself wearing only a pair of budgie smugglers (on my head) then enter the quiz now

    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    OMG you sure that's going to make people enter? I'd have thought everyone would want to see an image of you - a total stud muffin - in your budgie smugglers on!
