ERNIUS: How ya been lately, man?  
BERTUS: Oh, I been keepin' myself busy. 
ERNIUS: Ya? Doin' what?
BERTUS: Oh, you know… tryin' to make the best use of my time. Finding my center. 
ERNIUS: Yeah. 
BERTUS: I took three personality tests online yesterday. One before lunch, two after. 
ERNIUS: Wow. So…? What did you learn about yourself?
BERTUS: Well, it was different all three times, so now I'm a little scared to be left alone with myself. I mean, would you trust yourself alone with yourself if you knew you could have personality swings like that? I started as an engineer-planner, but then I was a Volvo-Saab, and then I turned out to be beaver-woodpecker. 
ERNIUS: Wow, yeah, it's… pretty scary. To imagine. Learning all that, about yourself, in one day. 
BERTUS: And I want to talk to my parents about why my brother used to say I was adopted. 
ERNIUS: Rock on, dude.
