You are the type of person who doesn't devote much effort to thinking about the past or planning for the future, you're satisfied just ambling along through the present. Family and friends have no idea if any deep thoughts are percolating through you head, but neither do you. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time strolling through a department store looking to buy either handcrafted decorations to hang on your walls or throw pillows for your bed. Be on the lookout for fairy dust that tastes like salt. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter O, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 978298. Your preferred shopping venue is discount super centers. Your special symbol is the period (.).

As a Beige Mundortle, you are somewhat dull, somewhat boring, somewhat lusterless. You don't particularly care and you don't really care that you don't care. You know that you have a somewhat drab, lackluster life, and that's just fine with you. You shop when you need to, buy what you have to, and get on with your life. It's just another day, another expenditure. You don't really care to spend a lot of time shopping, but you don't really care to spend a lot of time doing much of anything. Life goes on. So what? Who cares?

Our pedestrian excursion gives us a ground-level view of the economy, but it's certainly slow and time-consuming. If you're like me, you've probably thought once or twice about jumping into an Omni Motors XL GT 9000 sports coupe to speed us along the way. Or perhaps an Omni Airlines 30-day tourist excursion would make our trip faster and less exhausting. That's one nice thing about modern transportation, it's pretty quick and not too expensive. It also helps us get a whole lot closer to solving the unsolvable problem of scarcity. However, for a really good pedestrian view of transportation and how it helps us along, we'd better remain on foot.
