A Glimpse Of My World

Mar. 25, 2008 - Announcement and Intelligent Quiz





I have been meaning to announce, and I am now finally getting to it, that my good friend, Jocelyn, is continuing the feminine challenge. The challenge (to wear a skirt for an entire week) is issued every last week of each month. She also has a blogroll so you can post your link and share with others. So if you haven't done it yet, I encourage you to try it out! Jocelyn is doing a great job, and I am delighted that she is keeping it going. Thank you Jocelyn!!  (click on the icon above to see her page.)

Jocelyn is also hosting creative, different feminine challenges each month. This month is a challenge in feminine handwriting. It really is a lovely idea!  I would love to try to improve my calligraphy...Click here to participate.


~~~~

For fun, I thought I'd post a "Intelligence Test."  To take the quiz, you must answer the questions as fast as possible. Set a timer or look at the clock, and try to answer the questions in at least 1 or 2 minutes...Don't cheat! It won't be fun if you don't take it in a short amount of time. You will probably ace it, since it's really supposed to be audible. I quizzed someone and it was funny...



Intelligence Test

1)  How many of each animal did Moses take into the ark?
2)  What is the name of the raised print that deaf people use?
3)  It is possible to end a sentence with the word "the"?   (yes or no?)
4)  Spell the word "shop."  What do you do when you come to a green light?
5)  It is noon. You look at the clock. The big hand is on three. The little hand is on five. What time is it?
6)  Spell the word "silk."  What do cows drink?
7)  Listen carefully. You are the driver of a train. There are 30 people on board. At the first stop ten people get off. At the next stop five people get on. Now for the question: What is the name of the train driver?

And now a riddle:

1)  A lady read a book, turned the light out and went to sleep. In the morning, when she saw in the newspaper that a ship had sunk drowning all on board, she committed suicide.
Why?

Give me your answers and I will give you the correct answers in a few days.  :-)

Have a blessed week.



****Edit---The answers

1.  None. It was Noah.
2.  Deaf people don't use raised print.
3.  The question is an example of one.
4.  Go
5.  Noon
6.  Water
7.  You are the driver of the train

Riddle:  She was a lighthouse keeper

Hi Brooke!
How have you been doing?
Did you leave a comment on my Practical Purity blog? Because someone named Brooke did, and I thought maybe it was you. ;-)
So anyways, if it was you, thanks for the comments! :-)
In reply to the comments, just in case you were the one who left them...
Thanks for saying that you liked my interview! :-)
Yeah, I don't even hug the girls that I know on a regular basis... with guys, there is one family that we see about once a year (maybe) and we do hug them goodbye... I guess that it depends on the people. ;-) Most guys, I wouldn't ever hug at all for any reason!
Well, if you weren't the one to leave the comments, you can just disregard the last paragraph! ;-)
I hope that you are having a good day! (And I hope that you post soon!) :-)
Bye!
Joy

1) How many of each animal did Moses take into the ark? - None, Moses didn't make the ark.

2) What is the name of the raised print that deaf people use? - They don't use a raised print do they? Isn't it the blind people?

3) It is possible to end a sentence with the word "the"? - It is possible but not correct.

4) Spell the word "shop." What do you do when you come to a green light? - Go

5) It is noon. You look at the clock. The big hand is on three. The little hand is on five. What time is it? - That ain't noon it's after noon! The time is 5:15

6) Spell the word "silk." What do cows drink? - water

7) Listen carefully. You are the driver of a train. There are 30 people on board. At the first stop ten people get off. At the next stop five people get on. Now for the question: What is the name of the train driver? - Amber or You?

And now a riddle:

1) A lady read a book, turned the light out and went to sleep. In the morning, when she saw in the newspaper that a ship had sunk drowning all on board, she committed suicide. Why?

No idea, I'm horrible with riddles.

I'm sorry it took me so long to reply. I've been SLAMMED with work.

It's ok, I guess we'll meet another time.

Ah, you graduated, huh? Doesn't it feel good to be "free" from such a school-packed schedule?

An "open house" ...like, an open house for selling?

Hmmm, in June, huh? I think we're having different people over for that entire month... so, probably not.
We are literally a "hotel" for several families (all spaced out, fortunately) for most of June.
Bummersville.......

It was good to hear from you; hopefully we can meet up soon.
