Here is a test... I got 19

The average person only gets 7 right. This is based on
U.S. & CDN 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 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 commonplace things of life. 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 then check your answers
(on the bottom) only AFTER completing all the
questions.
REMEMBER - NO CHEATING!!! -- BE HONEST!!!
That means no looking at anything on your desk...Then,
before you pass this on to your friends, change the
number on the subject line to show how many you got
correct. Forward to your friends and also back to the
one who sent it to you.

LET'S JUST SEE HOW OBSERVANT YOU REALLY ARE. Here we
go!

top or bottom?
