Brain Teasers...........see how you go......

Trick brain teasers appear difficult at first, but they have a trick that makes them really easy.


No 1......Should You Be Institutionalized?


It doesn't hurt to take a hard look at yourself from time to time. This little test should help you get started.

During a visit to a mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director what the criteria is that defines if a patient should be institutionalized.

"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub. Then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and ask the patient to empty the bathtub."

Okay, here's your test:
1. Would you use the spoon?
2. Would you use the teacup?
3. Would you use the bucket?

"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would choose the bucket, as it is larger than the spoon."
What was the director's response?

A man is sitting in a pub feeling rather poor. He sees the man next to him pull a wad of £50 notes out of his wallet.
He turns to the rich man and says to him,
"I have an amazing talent: I know almost every song that has ever existed."
The rich man laughs.
The poor man says, "I am willing to bet you all the money you have in your wallet that I can sing a genuine song with a lady's name of your choice in it."
The rich man laughs again and says, "OK, how about my daughter's name, Joanna Armstrong-Miller?"
The rich man goes home poor. The poor man goes home rich.

What song did he sing?

A man wanted to get into a members only club so he hid and watched the guard at the door of the club house. The guard said a number to each member as they approached, and the member would respond with a number of their own. If the member responded with the correct number they were let in. If they responded incorrectly they were thrown out. One member came up to the door, the guard said twelve, and the member responded with six and was let in. Another member came to the door, the guard said six and the member responded with three and was let in. Believing he had heard enough, the reject went up to the guard. The guard said ten, and the reject said five, but was not let in. What should the reject have said?

Wouldn't of mattered what song he sung, cos the rich man didn't have any money in his wallet as he had taken it out earlier.

He didn't get in cos he wasn't a member to begin with.

Three mates,Stevo,Mick,Tom sitting at home wanna buy a case of beer but they got no way to get to the bottleshop,their car is stuffed.Each man has only $10.00 note to his name so they are thinking bout chippin in if they can get to the bottlo....
At last salvation Johnno pulls up in his Beat up HQ ute ,Johnno has no money or credit cards he is flat broke has hardly any petrol in the beast either,But says to the boys ok ill take a run...
Steveo,Mick & Tom all give Johnno their last ten dollar note , Johnno has no money untill this point so he now has $30.00 in his hot lil hand .
Off to the Local for a slab he goes.The Slab costs Johnno $25.00 he gives the guy the three ten dollar notes & gets 5 $1.00 coins in change,Jumps back into the ute but the gauge is near on empty he decides to put $2.00 of Juice in the ute he gives the garage 2 $1.00 coins & heads back to the boyz place .He walks in puts the slab down & hands Stevo $1 coin,Then Mick$1 coin,Then tom $1.coin..
The four lads cheer n crack a cold one ,
Now the thing is if the boys put in $10 each & got $1.00 change each,which they did ,then how much did they each contribute to the beer,Well $9.00 right ...They gave him $10 & got $1 change
Ok then 3 times $9.00 is....$27.00 right
Johnno kept $2 for juice That makes $29

Bill, a master dartsman, was bragging to his bar mates that he was such a consummate player, he could hit the dartboard in any location at will.

"I'll wager a hundred dollars that, no matter what position you name on the board, I'll be able to hit it."

Jack, tired of Bills's windbaggery, shouted out an answer.

Bill stammered for a few moments and at first refused to pay. The other bar patrons, however, made sure he held up his end of the wager. Bill slammed a hundred dollar bill on the counter and stormed out.

Where on the dartboard did Jack suggest?

There are three houses built exactly the same. One is filled with cotton, the other with wood, and the third with iron. One day an arsonist sets them all on fire. The sound of sirens was growing louder at the scene. People were screaming. Which house did the ambulance try to put the fire out at first?

dunno

In a country, there are over 100 streets. Street 1 is named First Street, street 2 is named Second Street, and so on and so forth.

A traveller decides to walk through all these streets in the country. He could find all the streets except Street 62. No matter how hard he tried, he could not find it.

He later found that the locals had given the street another name.

What is the name?

Removing an appendix is called an appendectomy, removing tonsils is called a tonsillectomy. What is it called when they remove a growth from your head?

A very mean king went to a nearby village. He wanted some more slaves to serve him at his royal palace. He decided that if any family in the village had more than five children, he would take them. A cobbler and his wife had ten children. When the king came to take them, the cobbler and his wife begged and begged. Finally the king said, "I see that you have ten pairs of shoes in a box. If you can give each of your children a pair and still leave one pair out of ten in the box, you can keep your children. The cobbler and his wife began to smile at each other. How did they keep all of their children?
