Subject: Test
Yep, it's that time of year again for us 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!
Here is a very private way to gauge how your memory compares to your last test.
Some may think it is too easy, but the ones with memory problems may have difficulty.
Take this test 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,' just give up now, and go do something else.
And, 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 already over-stressed and may even overheat. Content yourself with reading more appropriate literature such as Women's Weekly or Auto World. However, if you did say '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 this??? PLEASE, go lie down!
But, if you said 'glass,' go on to Question #4
#4 . Do not use a calculator for this:
You are driving a bus from New York City to Philadelphia .
In Staten Island , 17 people got on the bus.
In New Brunswick , 6 people get off the bus, and 9 people get on.
In Windsor , 2 people get off, and 4 get on.
In Trenton , 11 people get off and 16 people get on.
In Bristol , 3 people get off, and 5 people get on.
And, in Camden , 6 people get off, and 3 get on.
You then arrive at Philadelphia Station.
Without going back to review, how old is the bus driver?
Answer: Oh, for crying out loud!!!
Don't you remember your own age?!? It was YOU, driving the bus!!!
If you pass this along to your friends, pray that they do better than you.
P.S.: 95% of people fail most of the questions!! --------------------------------------------

A fly of mass .2 g sits 12 cm from the center of a phonograph record revolving 33.3 rpm.

Seems like there is a significant difference between a green house and a greenhouse, imho. So I'm not sure I agree with the answer on #3.
Yeah, I need to go ride.

How do you get an elephant off the ceiling? You jerk him off You pass a cemetery and your child asks how many people are buried in there. All of them.

Darn I am old, got all of them wrong and 20 years technically from senior citizen age. Either that, or I am dumb as a box of rocks - don't answer that.  |

How do you ride a Valkyrie?
Doesn't matter. If you remember you don't have to know anything else.
