It's that time of year to take your Annual Senior
Citizen test.
Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise
of the muscles. As we grow older, it's important
to keep mentally alert. If you don't use it, you
lose it! Below is a very private way to gauge your
loss or non-loss of intelligence.

Take the test presented here to determine if
you're losing it or not. The spaces below are so
you don't see the answers until you've made your
answer.

OK, relax, clear your mind and begin.

1. What do you put in a toaster?







Answer: "bread." If you said "toast," 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,"
don't attempt the next question. Your brain is
over-stressed and may even overheat. Content
yourself with reading a more appropriate
literature such as Auto World. However, 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," why are you still reading
these???
If you said "glass," go on to Question 4.



4. It's twenty years ago, and 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 engines fail. The pilot, realizing
that the last remaining engine is also failing,
decides on a crash landing procedure.
Unfortunately, the engine fails before he can do
so and the plane fatally crashes smack-dab in the
middle of "no man's land" between East Germany and
West Germany . "Where would you bury the
survivors? East Germany, West Germany, or no man's
land"?






Answer: You don't bury survivors.


If you said ANYTHING else, you're a dunce and you
must stop NOW! If you said, "You don't bury
survivors", proceed to the next question.



5. 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?




Answer: "Oh, for crying out loud!"


Don't you remember your own name? It was YOU!!




PS: Don't feel bad 95% of people fail most of the
questions.


Right, guess how many I failed? Yes, that's right, none of them! Yeah, I rock!
