    Someone pulled this on me via phone last night... so my revenge is passing it on. I checked snopes to see if it is an urban legend, it just seems to fit the bill of one, but I can't find it. Anyhow urban legend or not, you get some fun answers as you are trying to out-think the quiz once you realize the direction it is going.... I am going to post one question at a time... you can look at all first, or try to answer, better yet, those of you with children, I would love to know what your children answer!! Thinking Quiz This short quiz from Andersen Consulting will help you understand your thinking style better. The questions aren't difficult and you can scroll down for the answers. 1.

      Naturally, I'd have it cut into 8-12oz. steaks. BW

      I've had giraffe steaks. They were actually pretty good. The benefits of having a hunter friend from Namibia. I used to get high on life until I realized that life was cut with morons - Unknown

                And if you do that, probably you can also fit in the elephant without taking out the giraffe. :->

                  Question #2: The Wrong Answer: Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant and close the refrigerator. The Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the elephant and close the door. This tests your ability to think through the repercussions of your actions. 3.

                  hmm that's hard one! I'd say that Lion doesn't attend, because he is hosting (?) But dictionary.com says "to attend" means "to be present"... which he probably is. :confused: Never forget: "Stay kul and happy" (I.A.)

                      Make either the refrigerator big enough, or the giraffe small enough. Consult customer first though. :)

                                hey, I got one right. :) and I think I should get points for the 2nd answer, which was correct but not what was in the book. ;) I argued that with my prof in college and won, I think the same applies. :)
