    Alzheimers Test!

    Hi,

    Give this a try and let us know how you get on, but you have to be honest!!!!!


    "It's that time of year to take our 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 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 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. 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!

    I passed all of them except the plane crash because I assumed there would be no survivors in a fatal plan crash, so got the answer right but for the wrong reasons - well, it makes sense to me [msnscared]
