My New Years Resolution:

You're Charlie "Trip" Tucker. You stay down to earth no matter how far away from it you travel. You have a charm that always works to your advantage. When it comes to your friends, you're fiercely loyal almost to a fault. No matter what the situation, you've got the best lines out of anyone on Enterprise. Take the Enterprise Quiz! Brought to you by redanubis.

Well, to be polite and happy. Sort of. I don't think I can do the natural charm thing, but I also don't think I can stop doing the saying what I think thing.

The answers to the quiz are quite fun as well.
