Dear Readers!
Have you ever wondered whether or not you might actually be a closeted wizard?
Well, today you’re going to find out! I’ve designed a little questionnaire for you to measure your inner wizard.
Magical you?
- How magical do you feel?
- Very magical indeed! 10 points.
- Maybe a little bit once in a while. 5 points.
- Umm I don’t know? 3 points.
- There is no such thing as magic. 0 points.
- Do you own a big pointy hat?
- Of course I do! I never take it off, except for when I’m in the shower. 10 points.
- I often fantasize about purchasing one. 6 points.
- Perhaps I could be persuaded to buy one if it was on sale. 3 points.
- No, those are not chic at all. 0 points.
- Do you have a long, grey beard?
- Yes. 10 points.
- If I could have, I would have. 10 points.
- Sometimes. I have a part-time seasonal job as Santa Claus in the shopping mall. Does that count? 3,5 points.
- No, long grey beards look ridiculous. 0 points.
- How often do sparks fly from your eyes when you’re agitated?
- All the time. I often set fire to my annoying boss by accident. 10 points.
- It has happened a few times. 6 points.

Not bad at all. With a little bit of practice and a lot of oatmeal, you will be a wizard in no time.

1 – 39 points
I’m really sorry to tell you this, but you don’t seem to be very magical at all.

Less than 0 points
Not a single spark. You should probably go read the wall street journal instead.
