    Brain test
    A good friend (Shazzy) sent this to me and I feel compelled to share it with you.

    It's a little brain test.

    The majority of people will not get 100% the first time, but keep trying until you do. It takes an average of 5 tries to get 100%

    Try it, post how many times it took to get 100%.

    I did it in 3, but it wasn't easy.

    Wow. Two is really good.

    I have to admit, my first try I got it wrong, I read it wrong, I thought they wanted the color that the word spelled, not the actual color. I got 0%, which would mean I got 100% if my way had been right. ;)

    Their way is harder.

    I have encountered this a couple of times recently so I have practiced doing it.

    It really isn't in 2 because I tried a lot before . I think I got 4 on the very first one.

    Ben, you're not just cool, you're ice! ;)

    Martin, I have to admit that I had seen the test before too. I don't know how many times I tried my actual first time. I know it was more than 3 and I'm pretty sure it was less than 50. :)

    First pass, 50... maybe it was the cohol. Maybe it was cause I didn't give a rats arse too much.

    Second pass, 100...

    Apparently I'm much more attentive when irritated... so feign indifference if I'm ever on my knees at the edge of your bed... my second wind seems to have more umph than the first pass.

    So I'm the only one that had to do it more than twice? :eek:

    What does that mean?

    Actually, don't tell me, apparently I'm not smart enough to understand anyway. :p

    Those averages don't really mean a thing Alty. My teacher taught us that there are multiple forms of intelligence. Very, very, very few people have all of them. The majority have some of these intelligences.

    For example, it is possible that one is very good at math, and really really bad in arts...

    Or one is really good in writing, but is completely unable to talk properly!
    Or... one is good in both math and writing... and very bad in music... etc.

    You have your strong and weak points, I have mine, but that doesn't really matter :)

    You're such a sweetie Unky.

    I'm not worried. I'm not a genius, but I can tie my own shoes and feed myself, so I'm good. ;)

    This test is more to keep you brain focused, it's not really a test of intelligence. :)

    When I'm on a computer that can display those sort of things, I'd like to give it a try!

    Might not be too long to wait though, because a friend is putting together a new/old computer for me!

    Get's really frustrating not being able to see and do things that others seem to be able to do with ease on the Internet.
