another dumb thread for ya'll..... 
 
 
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 gage your loss or 
non-loss of intelligence. So take the following test 
presented here and determine if you are losing it or 
are still a MENSA candidate. 
OK, relax, clear your mind and....... begin. 
1. What do you put in a toaster? 
The answer is 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 overstressed 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 question three. 
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 greenhouse made from? 
Answer: 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 question four. 
4. 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 
procedure. 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"? 
Answer: You don't, of course, bury survivors. If you 
said ANYTHING else, you are a real idiot 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. 
5. 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? 
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 your pencil in 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? 
Answer: Oh, for heaven sake! It was YOU, you dummy.
