  Hey, Kevin, help me fill out this personality survey. It will be fun.
  Er, I don't know.
  Ah, come on. OK, here is the first one, what should I put for "aggressive"?
  Oh, I'd say "Very".
  Very? Really?
  Yeah, sure. Look at the way you drive.
  Oh, OK. So I am a very aggressive driver. But you have to drive like that in this city or you're gonna be hit, because...
  Uh... What's the next one?
  "Selfish".
  Oh, "Not at all".
  Really? Well, maybe just a little, I mean a lot of people are, right? just a little bit?
  You know I mean I try to think of other people, but sometimes I do just think of myself. I guess.
  OK, OK, so put "Not very".
  OK.
  But you can put "extremely" for next one.
  What? Oh,"kind"?
  Yes, don't you think you are an extremely kind person?
  I am? OK, if you say so. Oh, look at this next one.
  Oh, "patient".
  Yeah.
  Hmm... I don't know. Sometimes you can be really patient, but other times you are not patient at all, like remember that time in the line at the supermarket when you got...
  OK, OK, I get your point, I'll put "Sort of".
  Ok, that's right.
  Next one, "Jealous". I guess I'm sort of jealous.
  Sort of? I'd put "Very", remember how angry you got when my ex-girl called the other day?
  I thought you're gonna raise the roof.
  All right, all right. "Very".
  Oh, OK. What's the next one?
  That's all.
  That's all?
  Yeah, but now it's your turn.

  Really? what type of business?
  Well, I haven't decided 11 yet.
  But I know I'll be successful in anything I do.
  In fact, I'm going to be one of the top business people in town in less than five years.
  Just wait and see, I have everything it takes. I'm smart, I can organize people, and I'm full of ideas that can make money.
  NO.2 Karen.
  Hey, Look at this wallet on the sidewalk.
  Wow, there's lots of money in it, but no identification.
  Hmm, I wonder how I can find the owner.
  I guess I'll take it to the police station, and see if anyone's reported a lost wallet.
  NO.3 Pam.
  What are you doing tonight? Pam.
  Well, I was supposed to meet Bill after work for a movie, but I don't feel like going.
