Are You as Smart as a Junior Higher?

What level of education is required to read my blog? According to the Blog Readability Test, a junior higher should bode well with this blog. Do you agree with these results? I do. If it was any higher, I'd be missing the boat I set out to sail. [HT to Eric.]

Do You Tend to Over-Think Stuff?

Confessions of an IT Hitman, a business blog I follow, posed the following list of questions to show how some of us tend to over-think to get to the right answer. Ready for some light weekend thinking gymnastics? [HT to the IT Hitman.]

  • What does a banana taste like?
  • What do you call a question with no answer?
  • If there was a crumb on the table and you cut it in half, would you have two crumbs or two halves of a crumb?
  • What is a "self-help" group?
  • What can you put in a barrel which makes it lighter?
  • Why did Sally sell seashells on the seashore when you can just pick them up for free?
  • Why are red buttons always the most important?
  • How do you know water's wet?
  • Could someone be addicted to counseling? If so, how would you treat them?
  • Why do people duck when it rains?
  • If one synchronized swimmer drowns, do the rest drown too?
