This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally.
The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision.
Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.
Please read slowly and give due consideration to each line.
You are in Florida -- Miami to be specific. There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is a flood of biblical proportions. You are a photojournalist working for a major newspaper, and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster.
The situation is nearly hopeless! You're trying to shoot career-making photos. There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing under the water. Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.
Suddenly, you see a man floundering in the water. He is fighting for his life, trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer ... and discover that somehow, the man looks familiar. You suddenly realize who it is. It's George W. Bush! At the same time, you notice that the raging waters are about to pull him under.
You have two options: You can save the life of G.W. Bush, or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize-winning photo, documenting the death of one of the world's most powerful men. So here's the question, and please give an honest answer:
Would you select high-contrast color film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?

A site that we were able to shut last year has returned. We have to try to shut it down again! A Japanese man in New York breeds and sells kittens that are called BONSAI CATS.
That would sound cute, if it weren't kittens that were put in to little bottles after being given a muscle relaxant and then locked up for the rest of their lives!! The cats are fed through a straw and have a small tube for their faeces. The skeleton of the cat will take on the form of the bottle as the kitten grows. The The cats never get the opportunity to move.
They are used as original and exclusive souvenirs. These are the latest trends in New York, China, Indonesia and New Zealand .
If you think you can handle it, view http://www.bonsaikitten.com and have a look at the methods being used to put these little kittens into bottles. This petition needs 500 names, so please put your one name on it!!! Copy the text into a new email and put your name on the bottom, then send it to everyone you know. If you notice that there are 500 names on the list, please send it to: anacheca@hotmail.com

Incidentally, this standard also applies in my ability to keep a secret.

Haven't you been paying attention?
You only get promotions/Freedom medals/major kickbacks if you SCREW UP!
I know, Doonesbury is so 30 years ago, but, come to think of it, Curious George's administration is pretty similar to Nixon's. Anyway, check out the recent "Turd Blossom" arc that's been going on in Doonesbury. If your local paper's censoring it, you can check it out here.
