Psychology of Citrus?


Okay, so the title may be a bit deceptive, but bear with me. My mother is a notorious forwarder. She forwards any and everything that comes through her email. At the risk of her reading this and being offended, I usually delete them. I am NOT a fan of the forward. Occasionally I'll indulge (or, more likely, accidentally open it while going straight from one message to another) and sometimes they are amusing/thought provoking. Today I accidentally opened one called "I chose pineapple." Weird. But I did, in fact, indulge. You were instructed to choose one fruit from a list and then scroll down and it explained what that fruit said about your personality. This is what mine said:
MANGO - A mango lover is a personality to reckoned with; quite often, you are a person who has quite fixed ideas, and influencing you is not an easy task. You tend to be an extremist with strong likes and dislikes, and at times even like to control a situation.. You enjoy getting involved in something that presents mental challenge.. Strong as you may be, you are like a kitten when you are with your partner. You accommodate the love of your life, and make up for all the strong will elsewhere!
hmmm.... some good points, and actually pretty true, although I realized that there are a lot of people in my life that wouldn't necessarily know that about me. Am I hiding? Lying? Changing? Reading waaaaay too much into a dumb little forward?
Interesting. Also interesting: mango varieties. Turpentine?! Pope? Irwin? Julie? Jeannete? Sensation? (I want one of THOSE!)

I love mangos too! what are the kind you get at the store? I may need to schedule a trip to an exotic place in order to sample different kinds. You up for going to say, Hawaii?

On a different note, is there any chance I can get your email? I don't think that I have it.
