Yearly Dementia Test

Your Yearly Dementia Test !
(only 4 questions)
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 they do better than you.
PS: 95% of people fail most of the questions!
Sorry for all the spaces. You'd cheat otherwise.

Guess I'm beyond hope. My answer for all of them was "the North Pole".

Having got all the way to number 4 and then doing all the maths - it's maths in the UK not math - I got the answer right but now feel I need to have a nap as my brain hurts!
Please don't post another one of these before December 2014 Sarge, I am trying to take things easier next year.

Thanks for that one. Now if I can remember how the printer works, I'll pass this one on to all the old people like me here in AZ.
Happy New Year to All.

I have a problem with this one. The question is "what is a green house made from?" The answer is "Greenhouses are made from glass."
A green house is not the same as a greenhouse. There is not enough information to know what the green house is made from, but the implication would be "green bricks", not glass.
So there!! :P :lol: :lol: :lol:

You missed one, that was the alternate answer to three of them.
