It's interesting that today, Wontonwrapper brought up a topic about IQ test. Just this past Monday, FOX aired this "Test the Nation" IQ play-along show. It featured 60 questions, categorized by topics such as Language, Memory, Math, Logic, and Perspective. Reality tells me that I had none of these skills and should spare myself from embarrassment of testing to a low IQ score. But the curiosity side of me is fascinated to find out my IQ is regardless of its outcome. So, I played along. In the studio audience, several groups were represented -- Scientists, Teachers, Students, Bobybuilders, and of course, a group of blondes just to make the show more interesting. So the test began -- Quick! 2 more seconds...Damn! Next question! The stress lingered for 1 full hour. Then the results were IN. As expected, the scientists came in on top of the list with an average IQ score of 125. The blondes, on the other hand, tied for LAST place with the bodybuilders. So I guess those dumb blonde jokes that circulate in emails do happen for a reason. I actually did better than I thought -- and I AM actually a better guesser than I thought. Hmm.. maybe I should try guessing the Lotto numbers today?
