A Test how smart are you?

Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise of the muscles.
As we grow older, it's important that we keep mentally alert.
The saying; "If you don't use it, you will lose it" also applies
to the brain, so....... Below is a very private way to gauge your loss or
non-loss of intelligence. 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 own....OK, relax, clear your mind
and....begin.

1. What do you put in a toaster?

2. Say "silk" five times. Now spell "silk." What do cows drink?

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?

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" ?

5. If the hour hand on a clock moves 1/60 of a degree
every minute then how many degrees will the hour hand
move in one hour?

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?

(will post answers later see how you get on with those)
