Default A brain tickler.....

Hey, all. This is a fun brain tickler. It helps if you're able to visualize things well.



The average person only gets 7 right. This is based on U.S. info, so use
all lobes of your brain. This can be more difficult than it looks -it just
shows how little most of us really see!

There are 25 questions about things we see every day or have known about
all our lives. How many can you get right? These little simple questions
are harder than you think. It just shows how little we pay attention to the
commonplace things of life.

RULES: Put your thinking caps on. No cheating! No looking around!
No getting out of your chair! No using anything on or in your desk or
computer!

Can you beat 20?? (The average is 7) Write down your answers and check
answers (on the bottom) AFTER completing all the questions. REMEMBER-NO
CHEATING!!! It doesn't matter if you cheat, actually ,because if you have to
cheat, then you don't know the answer, thus, you've already missed the
question. BE HONEST!!! That means no looking at your phone or anything on
your desk...



LET'S JUST SEE HOW OBSERVANT YOU REALLY ARE. - If not, just have fun!

Here we go!


1. On a standard traffic light, is the green on the
top or bottom?

2. How many states are there in the USA ? (Don't laugh, some people don't
know.)

3. In which hand is the Statue of Liberty's torch?

4. What six colors are on the classic Campbell 's soup label?

5. What two numbers on the telephone dial don't have letters by them?

6. When you walk does your left arm swing with your right or left leg?
(Don't you dare get up to see!)

7. How many matches are in a standard pack?

8. On the United States flag is the top stripe red or white?

9. What is the lowest number on the FM dial? (Don't look at that dial!)

10. Which way does water go down the drain, counter or clockwise? (Get out
of the bathroom!)

11. Which way does a "no smoking" sign's slash run?

12. How many channels on a VHF TV dial?

13. On which side of a women's blouse are the buttons?

14. Which way do fans rotate?

15 How many sides does a stop sign have?

16. Do books have even-numbered pages on the right or left side?

17 How many lug nuts are on a standard car wheel?

18. How many sides are there on a standard pencil?

19. Sleepy, Happy, Sneezy, Grumpy, Dopey, Doc. Who's missing?

20. How many hot dog buns are in a standard package?

21. On which playing card is the card maker's trademark?

22. On which side of a Venetian blind is the cord that adjusts the opening
between the slats?

23. There are 12 buttons on a touch tone phone. What 2 symbols bear no
digits?

I got 17 of the 24 answers you provided. However, you did not provide the correct answer for question 25, so I might have 18.

Uh oh! Sorry about that! I guess I must not have "copied" that part of it. I don't really remember what the answer to 25 was now and I deleted the email.
