***You Are Somewhat Machiavellian***

You're not going to mow over everyone to get ahead...
But you're also powerful enough to make things happen for yourself.
You understand how the world works, even when it's an ugly place.
You just don't get ugly yourself - unless you have to!

I suppose this is true, but it overstates the case.

I am so not having ice cream with you! :p

This badly understates the case. I have a copy of "The Prince" and I have read it many times. However, in my own defense, I don't normally eat ice cream.

Rob, I'm beginning to think that possibly, you and I are pretty much the same person with different plumbing and life experience. Wanna go out for coffee?

Sure, anytime. My days are usually free.

I'm sorry, I don't trust the results of a quiz that asks if I think people have a "viscous" streak in them. :D

I took that as describing the spine of people. Ya know, kinda soft and bendable. ;)
