When I took the test they wanted payment for the score. That happen to anyone else? Or am I missing something? Should I check Email? Oh, did i forget to mention that? You must send payment directly to me. Only teasing. Yes, check the email account that you entered before beginning the test. You will get a raw score without having to pay for anything; evidently they charge you for a more detailed analysis of your strong points, etc.

Well, I wonder about my score since it took me the length of a post to figure out I should check the Email. JUST squeaked into the Borderline Genius category. That's my life folks : Borderline! wow B96 : the check's in the mail.

I think this test is going to demonstate a Lake Woebegone effect here at AWAD-- that all the women are strong (well, we are) and the men are good looking (any of you guys what to argue with that? I didn't think so) and we (not just our children) are all above average!

Measurements of usefulness Useful as: - tits on a boar hog - a rubber crutch
These expressions were current about the same time as facetious questions posed in response to a self-evident statement or question. For instance, if someone asked you if you would like to make $1000 for 10 minutes easy work, you might respond:
Is a bean green? Is the Pope catholic? Does a bear shit in the woods?
and, later addition, Does the Pope shit in the woods?
To reply in the negative, Has a chicken got lips?

I thought it was a bit cheap that it had a pounds-and-ounces question. I only recently managed to memorize those conversions (bloody annoying is what I say). There was another question whose answer would be more familiar to US'ns - the white house one. I know there are white houses in all countries, but only a US'n would have immediate recognition of that word pair. Not fair to those of us from elsewhere! [pout]

Yeah, well i kinda thought the HUT question was unfair; you can certainly make a legible version of HUT with seven toothpicks, if you make the right side of the H serve a double purpose as the left side of the U. then, if you connect the T to the U, it just looks like your letters are mashed together. out of curiousity, i resubmitted my test answering "TRUE" to that question, with this in mind, and my IQ dropped four points.

Oh I am not sure about the "white house" being unfair-- if I where to find that you lived on 10 Downing Street-- In Newfoundland-- i would still tease, and ask if you had taken over for Maggie Thatcher as the second female PM..
Not all address are as famous as the 10 Downing or the WhiteHouse or even 221 Baker (it is 221? any irregulars out there?)

aw, Hyla, don't be silly. it's only four points a shot... so you could conceivably take it 30 or 40 times and still be capable (by current indications) of running the good ol' USofA!

Because then I'd be around the -80 mark, where our current fearless leader is? [ducking for cover e]
