: Fw: Yearly Dementia Test

 Our Yearly Dementia Test-- 

only 4 questions

 It's that time of year 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! 

                                Below is a very private way to gauge how your 
memory compares to the last test. Some may think it is too easy but the ones 
with memory problems may have difficulty. 

                                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 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.   Without using a calculator - 

                                          

                                You are driving a bus from St. Joseph Missouri  
 

                                          to Salt Lake                        

                                , 17 people get on the bus. 

                                  In Kansas City , 6 people get off the bus and 
9 people get on.
                                In Imporia, 2 people get off and 4 get on.
                                In Oklahoma City , 11 people get off and 16 
people get on.
                                In Amarillo , 3 people get off and 5 people get 
on.
                                In Casper , 6 people get off and 3 get on.
                                You then arrive at Salt Lake . 
                                Without scrolling 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 they do better than 
you. 
            PS: 95% of people fail most of the questions!!
