Old Farts Test
Permalink  

Courtesy of Cooper Creek Chronical, Innamincka March 2009
This Alzheimer's Test was developed as a mental age assessment by the School of Psychiatry at Harvard Uni-versity . Take a few moments to see whether you can read each line aloud without a mistake. The average person over 40 years of age cannot do it!

1.) This is this cat.
2.) This is is cat.
3.) This is how cat.
4.) This is to cat.
5.) This is keep cat.
6.) This is an cat.
7.) This is old cat.
8.) This is fart cat.
9.) This is busy cat.
10.) This is for cat.
11.) This is forty cat.
12.) This is seconds cat.

Now go back and read the third word in each line from the top down............

Have fun with this. Cheers Chris

I though we could all use a smile.
What with water management concerns, droughts and Telstra, a smile is about all we have control over.
So what about that Grey Nomads Party?
We've already solved most of this country's problems. All we have to do now is tell Uncle Kev and that Gillard woman, and it's done.

why dont we do what another race has done, set up a camper embassy and refuse to leave until all our demands are met, including free viagra and hip replacements for all

trouble with us setting up our own governing body is to find all of us home at once long enough to have a "sitting"

I'll sit anywhere as long as you like as long as I have someone to yak with, and maybe a beer or scotch to wet the whistle.

I can't wait to get going.  If the country's problems can all be fixed on this forum how much more can be done at a meeting?  Just pick somewhere warm and sunny.

Well I suppose there is a price to pay for everything we get, you got some free full tanks and a lot of mud as a bonus.biggrin.gif

There's always technology, and conference calls. As long as we're in range of course.
Still a work in progress it seems.
Of course a meeting is what occurs when there's nothing else to do. All the decisions are made before the meeting, and after the meeting.
It's all good.

But just think of all the yarns we could spin at that meeting.

See if you can figure out what these words have in common.  

1 Banana
2 Dresser
3 Grammar
4 Potato
5 Revive
6 Uneven
7 Assess

Are you peeking or have you already given up?
Give it another try .  Look at each word carefully.


 
 
Scroll Down 

  
  
  
  

























  
 
Answer:
In all of the words listed, if you take the first letter,
place it at the end of the word, and then spell the
word backwards, it will be the same word.

 
Did you figure it out? No?  Then you are indeed not thinking latteraly. If you did solve this problem then you are better than our PM who did not and the ever full of knowledge Barry Jones, Pauline Hanson said "Please explain" and I knew the answers because I set the test.
