Exercise of the brain is as important as
exercise of the muscles.
As we grow older, it's important
that we keep mentally alert. The saying; "If you don't
use
it, you will lose it," also applies to the brain, so..... Below is a
very private way
to gauge your loss or non-loss of
intelligence. Take the following test and determine
if
you are losing it or are still "with it." OK, relax, clear
your mind and.... Begin.
1. What do you put in a
toaster? (scroll down)

Answer: "bread." If
you said "toast," then give up now and go do something else.
Try
not to hurt yourself. If you said, "bread," go to Question
2.
2. Say "silk" five times. Now spell
"silk." What do cows
drink?

Answer: Cows drink
water. If you said "milk," please do not attempt the next
question.
Your brain is obviously over stressed and may even
overheat. It may be that you need to
content yourself with
reading something more appropriate, such as Children's World."
If
you said "water," proceed to Question
3.
3. If a red house is made from
red bricks, and a blue house is made from blue bricks, and
a pink
house is made from pink bricks and a black house is made from black
bricks, what is
a green house made
from?

Answer: Greenhouses
are made from glass. If you said, "green bricks," what the
devil
are you still doing reading these questions????? If you
said "glass," then go on to
Question 4.
4. Twenty years ago, a plane was flying at
20,000 feet over Germany. If you recall,
Germany at the time was
politically divided into West Germany and East Germany.
Anyway,
during the flight, TWO of the engines failed. The pilot,
realizing that the last remaining
engine is also failing, decides
on a crash landing procedure. Unfortunately the
third
engine fails before he has time to attempt an emergency
landing, and the plane crashes
smack in the middle of "no man's
land" between East Germany and West Germany.
Where would you bury
the survivors? .. . . in East Germany or West Germany or
in "no
man's land"?

Answer: You don't, of
course, bury survivors. If you said ANYTHING else, you are a
real
dunce and you must NEVER try to rescue anyone from a plane
crash. Your efforts would not
be appreciated. If you said,
"Don't bury the survivors," proceed to the next
question.
5. If the hour hand on a clock
moves 1/60 of a degree every minute how many degrees will
the
hour hand move in one hour?

Answer: One
degree. If you said, "360 degrees" or anything other than "one
degree," you
are to be congratulated on getting this far,
but you are obviously out of your league.
Turn in your pencil,
and exit the room. Everyone else proceed to the final
question.
6. Without using a calculator --
You are driving a bus from London to Milford Haven
in
Wales. In London, 17 people get on the bus. In
Reading, six people get off the bus, and
nine people get
on. In Swindon, two people get off and four get on. In
Cardiff, 11
people get off and 16 people get on. In
Swansea, three people get off and five people get
on. In
Carmathen, six people get off and three get on. You then
arrive at Milford Haven.
What was the name of the bus
driver?
