- - The "how observant are you" test? (http://nferno666.sytes.net/forums/showthread.php?t=14862)

This is based on U. S. & CDN info, so use both sides of your brain. This can be more difficult than it looks - it just shows how little most ofus really see!

There are 27 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 you how little we pay attention to the common place things of life. Put your thinking caps on. Mind teasers of COMMON KNOWLEDGE. No cheating! No looking around! 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!!! Then, before you pass this on to your friends, change the number on the subject line to show how many you got correct in the subject line. Forward to your friends and also back to the one who sent it to you. LET'S JUST SEE HOW OBSERVANT YOU REALLY ARE.
