Here is a more descriptive evaluation of ISTP people and here.
ISTPs have an adventuresome spirit. They are attracted to motorcycles, airplanes, sky diving, surfing, etc. They thrive on action, and are usually fearless. ISTPs are fiercely independent, needing to have the space to make their own decisions about their next step. They do not believe in or follow rules and regulations, as this would prohibit their ability to "do their own thing". Their sense of adventure and desire for constant action makes ISTPs prone to becoming bored rather quickly.

ISTPs are loyal to their causes and beliefs, and are firm believers that people should be treated with equity and fairness. Although they do not respect the rules of the "System", they follow their own rules and guidelines for behavior faithfully. They will not take part in something which violates their personal laws. ISTPs are extremely loyal and faithful to their "brothers".
Brother in Black recommended the site to me. Although I think the online test is unauthorized even though it's inspired by Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. Followed from the theories of a Swiss psychiatrist, Carl Jung, the MBTI personality test has made popularity among individuals and companies. Like all trait tests, people mistakenly believe that their intuition is "more developed" than their sensing, or vice versa. This is a more accurate MBTI test than the above one; however, I did not have time to take it, so enjoy (and yes, it is pouring outside). Check out which of the 16 unique types you are. Maybe you and I are compatible after all. Hey, is that a new hair cut? It looks nice.
