It doesn't hurt to take a hard look at yourself from time to time, and this should help get you started. During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director what the criterion was which defined whether or not 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 him or her to empty the bathtub." "Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup." "No." said the Director, "A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?" DID YOU PASS, OR DO YOU WANT THE BED NEXT TO MINE?

I wanted to use the teaspoon, the cup and the bucket, all three of them but I don't have three hands so I just pulled the plug. I think I want the bed next to yours. Do you snore when you sleep? Because that would not be a problem as I snore louder!! lol, I am so hopeless on humour. Oh, well....

It could have been worse, he could have asked for a straw instead. This was a very good example of distracting someone from the obvious by offering other choices, and I have to admit that I expected the bucket to be the logical choice as well.

I pass this test. At the very fast moment the option pulling the plug came to my mind. Because this is very prctical, that's what we do to empty the tub when we take bath. But hey I would like a bed next to you:). We will do mylot gossip lol.

I passed!! This is actually a test for common sense. Just because something is presented to you does not mean that you Have to use it in their manner. You were not told to only use those items. I also thought what if the water was dirty? If filled I guess it was clean. Still want a bed next to yours, I could use a vacation!!
