After reading the last few posts i thought i would try and lighten the mood


OK, relax, clear your mind and...... begin.

1. What do you put in a toaster?






The answer is 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 overstressed 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 three.






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 the heck are you still doing here
reading these questions????? Dang.... If you said
"glass," then go on to question four.




4. Twenty years ago, a plane is; flying at 20,000 feet over
Germany. If you will recall, Germany at the time was politically
divided into West Germany and 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 crashes smack
in the middle of "no man's land" between East Germany and
West Germany. Where would you bury the survivors - East Germany or West Germany or 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. If the hour hand on a clock moves 1/60th of a degree
every minute then how many degrees will the hour hand move
in one hour?







Answer: One degree. If you said "360 degrees" or anything
other than "one degree," you are to be congratulated on
getting this far, but you are obviously out of your league.

Turn your pencil in and exit the room. Everyone else
proceed to the final question.




6. 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, six people get off the bus and nine people get on. In Swindon, 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 Carmathen, six people get off and three get on. You then
arrive at Milford Haven. What was the name of the bus
driver?





Answer: Oh, for heaven sake! It was YOU, you dummy.
Read the first line!!!

Hope you enjoyed if not i want do it again ?:D

:D

I have heard all (except the bus driver one) these before.  Unfortunantly I only ever remember the 'Green House and Survivor' ones when trying to use them on others.

I used to know more too, but my memory isn't what it was. :blush:

You might wan't to reexamine this answer. While 1/60 a a degree would make 1 degree equal one hour by logic, mathematically there are 360 degree in a circle and those 360 degrees are divided into 12 hours. That would make each hour equal 30 degrees. Hmmmmm......

Either I'm confused, don't have a sense of humour, or am a math teacher?

Maybe all of the above? :laugh:

I get the logic puzzle, but...     ???

Shalom,
Maksim.

Seeing that I didn?t write these :blush: ?I had to ask the guy who gave them to me and he asked the guy who gave them to him and so on ?:l .

The final answer I got was rather a stupid answer and I think it was a cover. All he said was that "the clock was broken so it only moved the 1 degree instead of the correct amount for each hour"

:oo ?:p ?:l

Oh well I?m confused now (which doesn?t take much to do) but he?s kind of right in a picky sort of way as he didn?t say that it was a 12 hour clock and the clock could be broken but your right it should be 30 degree?s.

Oh well I think its just best to accept them at face value as he wrote them for a quiz which was meant to be a bit daft and fun.

Another lesson might be drawn from this...

Don't give math teacher a math test unless you expect him to do well and possibly find errors...  :)

Shalom,
