Deity.

The world really does revolve around you. Considering there have been 4,000 religions in recorded history, your rise to immortality will depend on writing a best seller, performing a few magic tricks, fighting off attacks from professors, and not letting your most fervent believers make a fool of you.

Eight to 15 points.

Dad.

You don't need to be godlike to be a good parent. It doesn't take stone tablets from a mountaintop to know to never reward negative behavior. Parenting rivals godhood in one very important aspect; you have played Creator. Now live up to it.

Devil Comrade.

Don't give up your promising legal career. Go ahead and run for public office. Cheat on your spouse, fudge on your taxes, view Internet porn 24 hours a day. Spend your money on sex, gambling and drinking so you can just waste the rest. You won't know if there's a Hell until the Fat Lady sings.

SIGNS YOU FELL A LITTLE SHORT.

A fat lady is singing.

"You've won a brand new handbasket!"

Johnny Cochran won't take your case

"My name's Tyrone and you're my bitch"

"Mr. President, meet your new intern."

G.L. Marshall, a Richmond, Virginia web designer specializing in download optimization, site creation and information architecture, also runs a monthly magazine.

In addition to updated content when he's not helping clients with affordable web design, the content provider writes essays. The monthly on-line magazine, when he's not building web sites or being a freelance writer, is called gl the mag. In this issue of the zine, he's light on the political commentary and news analysis and instead focuses on CBS Television's proposed show "Survivor." Other topics in GLTHEMAG include Pete Rose, Jim Grey, Charles Schulz, Charlie Brown, UPI, the Bangkok World, the United Features Syndicate and Christmas traditions. He likes to read BrozNews every day. In his magazine, previous topics have ranged from dating tips and relationships and news analysis to quick rants on all things web.

The G.L. stands for Gary Lee, and Marshall spends his daytime hours as a websmith, a freelance web site creator and designer who's an expert in making sites load faster and read better. His catchphrase is "a better speedbump on the infobahn" and www.glmarshall.com is home to a business site, a monthly magazine and Escape From Heaven, an on-line novel.
