Nostalgic rants and curmudgeonly rambles from R. Jason Bennion. I'm a writer, a wanderer, a movie buff, and a pack rat. But mostly I'm just an analog kind of guy lost in a digital world...
I got 1 minute, 3 seconds. Probably, because I answered "Some martial arts training" on the strength of taking a couple of years of judo in middle school. The only thing I remember from that is how to hit the floor rolling...
First: I'm a big fan of any quiz that defines me (5' 5.5") as "Average" and not "Short."
Second: "Where would you rather be? Top Bunk, Bottom Bunk, On the floor?" I took this to mean while the velociraptor is chained to the bed. Who would answer anything but Top Bunk?
Third: I would submit that screaming when something bites your arm off should not be labeled "sissy" behavior.
I'm with you Brian, on all three points (I'm 5'7" on a good day, 5'6" in my usual slouchy posture... and you can damn well bet I'd be raising the roof if something took off my arm!)

Interesting, I got the same response.

I'm sure that will come in handy when a bloodthirsty dinosaur is hurling itself at your throat... :)
