Exercise of the brain...(funny)

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.

The following is a very private way to gauge your current state of intelligence. Take the following test and determine if you are losing it or are still "with it."

After you answer the question, scroll down to the answer.

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

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.

What do cows drink?

Answer: Cows drink water. If you said "milk," please do not attempt the next question. Your brain is obviously over stressed and may even overheat. It may be that you need to content yourself with reading something more appropriate such as "Children's World."

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?

Answer:

Everyone else proceed to the final question.
