BROWN PRAGMATOX
Your compete MICRO*scope for today
You are the type of person who never wavers in the pursuit of a goal once you have deemed it worth pursuing. Family and friends realize that you carefully consider every expenditure that you make. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time driving to a factory outlet looking to buy either storage boxes for your summer clothes or 500 feet of coaxial cable. Be on the lookout for cardboard boxes. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter B, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 267073. Your preferred shopping venue is thrift stores. Your special symbol is the comma (,).
Is this You?
As a Brown Pragmatox, you are down-to-earth and practical. You are hard working and industrious. You are frugal to the point that you might even refrain from making a purchase that you really, really need. Doing so often causes problems down the road. You definitely go with function over form and substance over style.
This isn't me! What am I?

The Economics Of Dueling POLITICAL VIEWSThere seems to be a disturbance on the steps of the Shady Valley City Hall. Why it's the twins, Donna and Rhonda, engaged in yet another of their long-running, and overly heated, political arguments. Donna, you see, is a devoted Democrat and Rhonda is a rigid Republican. They haven't found much to agree on since, well, come to think of it they've never agreed on anything. In their current debate, Donna is making a strident case for stricter regulation of the banking industry and Rhonda is championing the virtues of free enterprise. I had better hitch up my jogging pants and intervene before their argument comes to blows -- again. While I do, let's ponder the source of differing political views.
