It's time for kennethdaysale to take our senior citizen test. There's a few others that probably should be tested.......Bama, why did YOUR name pop into YOUR mind immediatly?

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 your loss or non-loss of
intelligence or how old you should feel.

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 a more appropriate literature such
as Bass Fishing for DUMMIES. 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
the hell are you still reading these???
If you said "glass," go on to Question 4.







4. It's twenty years ago, and 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 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 can do so and the plane fatally crashes smack in the middle of "no man's land" between East Germany and West Germany. Where would you bury the survivors? East Germany, West Germany, or "no man's land"?


















Answer: You don't bury survivors.


If you said ANYTHING else, you're a dunce and you must stop. If you
said, "You don't bury survivors", proceed to the next question.







5. 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 crying out loud!
Don't you remember your own name? It was YOU!!

PS: 95% of people fail most of the questions!!

I think I know?
Started to PM you the answer. Between my hardships with typing and confusing the numbers I confused myself to the point of exaustion. I'd re-read and it didn't sound right, so I'd make changes. Over and over.
So the answer is...you could only send me once and I'd probably bring back the wrong amount!

Now for my test, I got three Sam. So if we add ours together WE got four for Wisconsin!

You first fill up the 3 gallon and pour it into the 5. Then you fill up the 3 again and pour it into the 5 until it's full. This leaves 1 gallon in the 3. You dump out the 5 gallon bucket and pour the 1 gallon from the 3 into the 5. Next, you fill up the 3 gallon bucket again and pour it into the 5 gallon bucket that already has 1 gallon in it, that makes 4 gallons.

I would do it in two trips. Fill the 5 gallon bucket and pour it into 3 gallon bucket untill the three gallon bucket is full. Stop and return the remaining 2 gallons in the 5 gallon bucket back to the house. Then repeat.
As for the brain power test...........no comment

You guys are right but sometimes a thread just sort of comes unraveled on its own rather than falling victom to an outright hijacking.
Anyway back on message>>>>>Somebody needs to step up and be the official weigh-master and rule setter and keeper of the booty...volunteers please step forward.

Simple. Bring a gallon jug and fill up the 5 gallon bucket with 4 gallons and leave the 3 gallon bucket at home.

Default Big Bass Contest

I will try to get us back on track but I'm sure it will be like convincing my wife that I DO need a new bass boat and that $40.000 isn't TOO much money. Some of you may remember oh maybe fifteen years BASS'N MAGAZINE put on the Big Bass World Championship. Anglers mailed a form from the magazine, nobody had computers then, to receive an official weigh in form. When an angler caught a big bass he or she had to then get it weighed on a certified scale and the scale operator signed the form and wrote the Department of Weights and Measures certification number on the form as well then the fish could be returned to the water if it was kept alive. The deal was that a single angler with the biggest bass from each state went on to fish the championship tournament at a predetermined lake. A format like that might work. Everyone that enters for say $20.00 could win the bragging rights for his or her own state. Then all the winners could be posted here . Everybody's happy that way. Maybe this web site could run a entry form and any money collected could go to help out little Easton's family. A little money helps out along with the prayers. Well that's my two cents, got to get back to herding those darn cats. C-YA, Bill P.S. Do you think if I wore the Glam Rock Glitter platforms it would help me catch more fish or just get the crap beat out of me!?

I like the idea of doing something to help with Eastons expenses, I can only imagine getting a 6 or even 7 figure Dr bill. But in all reality I have my doubts tieing it to a contest is going to garner much interest. Somebody here dropped out because they didn't have a digital scale...probably not going to go through the gyrations of finding a certified scale and weigh-master etc. Beside I think the original idea was an informal quick little snap and go thing just for fun. Of course I may be wrong and I hope I am.

ok, seems like you all are having trouble with this. so i say this...........go fishing, take a pic of your big fish. and post it (or in my case have a friend post the pic,lol), measure the fish (length and girth) and pos tit along with what your scales say it weighs. we can have different tpyes of fish too. smallie, lm, walleye,etc. biggest fihs in EACH fish is the winner. now as for having money for prizes.......that is fine by me, but we can't have no huge "pot" for each to pay, $5.00 each fish seems fair. ($5.00 smallie,$5.00 lm, etc). enter as many different catagories as oyu like, $5.00 each. now if oyu want the money ot go to EASTON, that is fine by me as well. or oyu can have the money go towards whoever or whatever is ALL decided on.

now. is this a fair "braggarts" contest? GET THIS THING ROLLING. spring is quickly coming.
