Your IQ Challenged

A LITTLE TEST

Take the following test to determine if you are losing it or are still "with it." Ready? OK, relax, clear your mind and begin.

1. What do you put in a toaster?

The answer is "bread." If you said "toast," give up now and go do something else. 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.
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 greenhouse made from?

Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said "green bricks," what are you still doing here reading these questions? If you said "glass," go on to Question 4.

4. 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 "1 degree," you are to be congratulated on getting this far, but are obviously now out of your league. Turn your pencil in and exit the room. Everyone else proceed to the final 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, 6 people get off the bus and 9 people get on. In Swindon, 2 people get off and 4 get on. In Cardiff, 11 people get off and 16 people get on. In Swansea, 3 people get off and 5 people get on. In Carmathen, 6 people get off and 3 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? It was YOU!
