Tricks to test your presence of mind- interesting puzzles

Hi,

So, take the following test presented here and determine if you are

losing it or are still "with it." The spaces below are so you don't see

the answers until you have made your answer.

OK, relax, clear your mind and ... begin. WELL, MAYBE NOT THAT CLEAR!

1. What do you put in a toaster?

Answer: "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 over stressed 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 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,"

what the devil are you still doing here reading these questions??? ?? If

you said "glass," then! go on to Question 4.

4. Its twenty years ago, and a plane is flying at 20,000 feet over

Germany(If you will recall, Germanyat the time was politically divided

into West Germanyand 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 fatally crashes smack in

the middle of "no man's land" between East Germanyand West Germany.

Where would you bury the survivors? East Germanyor West Germanyor in

"no man's land"?

Answer: You don't, of course, bury survivors. If you said ANYTHING else,

you are a real dunce 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. Without using a calculator - You are driving a bus from Londonto

MilfordHaven in Wales. In London, 17 people get on the bus. In Reading,

six people get off the bus and nine people get on. In Sweden, 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

Carmarthen, six people get off and three get on. You then arrive at

MilfordHaven. What was the name of the bus driver?

Answer: Oh, for crying out loud! Don't you remember your own name? It

was YOU!!

Now pass this along to all your "smart friends" and hope they do better

than you did.

(PS: 95% of people fail in most of the questions!!)
