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. So take the following test presented here and determine if you are losing it or still a MENSA candidate.
Ok, relax... clear your mind, and begin.
Q: What do you put in a toaster?
A: The answer is bread. If you said "toast," then give up now and go do something else before you hurt yourself. If you said "bread", go to the next question.
.
Q: Say "silk" five times. Now, spell "silk." What do cows drink?
A: 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", then proceed to the next question.
Q: If a red house is made with red bricks, a blue house is made with blue bricks, a pink house is made with pink bricks, a black house is made with black bricks, what is a greenhouse made with?
A: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said "green bricks," what the heck are you still doing here reading these questions? If you said "glass", then go on to the next question.
Q: Twenty years ago, a plane is flying at
20,000 feet over
Germany.If you will recall, Germany at the time was politically divided into West Germany and East Germany. Anyway, during the flight, TWO of the engines fail. The pilot, realizing that the last remaining engine is also failing, decides on a crash landing. Unfortunately, the engine fails before he has time 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 - East Germany or West Germany or in "no-man's land?"
A: You don't, of course, bury the 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" then proceed to the next question.
Q: If the hour hand on a clock moves 1/60th of a degree every minute, then how many degrees will the hour hand move in one hour?
A: One degree. If you said "360 degrees" or anything else other than "one degree", you are to be congratulated on getting this far, but you are obviously out of your league. Turn your pencil in and exit the room. Everyone else proceed to the final question.
Q: 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. Now, what was the name of the bus driver?
A: Oh, for Heaven's sake... It was you!
Be nice Mr_Screws, or one day someone might inflict trick #137 on you.... lol! ;-)
Ray Screws- you made me realize that I should be reading something more appropriate such as "Children's World" as you said.
Q: How do you put an elephant in a fridge?
A: Open the door put the elephant in and close the door
Q: How do you put a giraffe in a fridge?
A: Open the door take the elephant out, put the giraffe in, close the door
Q: If there is an animal meeting and every single animal is going to be there except for one, which one would it be?
A: The giraffe, It's still stuck in the Fridge
Q: If you had to get across a swamp and it was full of crocodiles how would you do it?
A: Just swim across, The crocodiles are at the animal meeting.
Wow, I got all of Ray_Screws' questions right. The trick is to read slowly and carefully, as one overlooked word can make all the difference in your answer. Those questions are meant to pull a fast one on you, but if you take your time and think, you'll answer them correctly without any problems.

Cows do drink milk, when they're calves.
Guest_2ebbe learn to spell dumb before you call someone dumb . Or else you'll look like the idiot .
It's better to appear stupid than open your mouth and remove all doubt.
