You are the type of person who could defuse a bomb while babysitting a room full of rambunctious children. Family and friends act like they enjoy your detailed accounts of life in a junior high glee club. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time lost in your local discount super center looking to buy either a set of luggage with wheels or a birthday gift for your aunt. Be on the lookout for fairy dust that tastes like salt. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter P, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 395987. Your preferred shopping venue is department stores. Your special symbol is the at sign (@).

As a Blue Placidola, you are easy-going and even-tempered, calm and composed. For you, the hectic pace of a crowded shopping mall during the holiday rush is nothing, it's little more than a tranquil stroll in the park. Life is good. Life goes on. Why worry. You are a happy shopper and you seldom fret over trivial details of a market exchange, in part because you are astute enough to get moderately low prices and relatively good deals.

A person who specializes in economics, especially through the study of economic theories and the accumulated body of economic knowledge. Economists spend their working lives at universities, colleges, government agencies, banks, insurance companies, and multinational corporations. They study economic events, analyze government policies, undertake scientific investigations, and of course pass along economic information to eager students and others seeking enlightenment.

The first stop for any pedestrian on a leisurely stroll through the busy economic streets of Shady Valley is Scarcity Stan's Ye Olde Bakery Shoppe and Confectionery Palace. The most noted pastry on Scarcity Stan's list of delectables, wedged between his mouth-watering apple danishes and scrumptious jelly donuts, is economic pie. My mouth waters with the thought.

Economic pie isn't like other donuts, cakes, and confectioneries with their gobs of sweetness, but very little nutritional sustenance. In fact, given that it refers to the sum total of the economy's resources and productive activity, economic pie is filled to the brim with sustenance. Unfortunately, Scarcity Stan and the congregation of people we call society, has only one economic pie, and while it's pretty large, it's never quite as big as we would like.
