Hey, last time I took this (25 years ago) I was INFJ; I must have loosened up a bit over the years. 

Well, I am a shrink, so, I guess it fits.

I first took the Myers-Briggs test in the 1980's with the same results.   The online version is really good but the material from Myers-Briggs has tons of material on your personality type.  It also helps you interact with others.  For every type there is an opposite.  For INFP it would be an ESTJ and that person could not understand my introversion any more than I could understand their extroversion.  I also amaze myself that I PEGGED Intuitive, the "N" part whose opposite is Sensate.   I can look at something a hundred times and not notice it is there until someone shows me it.

For anyone interested, I have a MS-DOS program called MYERS.EXE that asks very similar questions and generally gives the same results.  It also offers more details to someone with your individual ways of relating to those around you.  If anyone wants a copy I can email it to them.  Email [email protected]   (Note this program is totally keyboard operated.  You have to answer the questions with a number for your answer and then you have to hit the Enter or Return key for the program to proceed.)   FWIW I have been using, building and programming computers since June 1983.   Thanks to whoever found the link!

I have always been interested in art and painted recreationally since childhood (everything from portraits to abstracts, in oils on canvas) and I love music, so that part's right. But I'm not sure about the cooking / chef thing - "I can't cook worth a damn. Am pretty good with a can opener, though." What does "You Are An ISFJ" mean?

I have no idea what ISFJ means Kerry. It told me I'm a ESFJ (or something like that). I don't know what that means either.  ???

Maybe the first letter stands for Introvert or Extrovert. Just a guess though.

What does "You Are An ISFJ" mean?

I got this from Wikipedia:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers-briggs

I vs E  (Introvert vs Extrovert)
S vs I (Sensing vs Intuition)
T vs F (Thinking vs Feeling)
J vs P (Judging vs Perceiving)

Br. Patrick has much additional info about what all this means, so you can PM him for more info if you're interested.

I'm the same and scored similarly on a personality test I took for a company some years ago.  It was strangely isolating, next to no one else scored similarly, I felt like the Mr. Spock of the comany, but when we were all in a group discussing our results, a guy I admired for his cool decision-making turned and said to me, "If we were in a burning building, I would follow whereever you went."

Made me feel good.  :)

Thanks for your feedback, David & Lynne. I'm a little clearer now. David, you made me laugh with your response (LOL), "I don't know what that means..." Reminded me of Jack's response to Ennis about the Pentacost, "Well, the Pentacost...I don't know. I don't know what the Pentacost is...Mama never explained it." Ya gotta love him!  :)
