Re: How Smart Are You?

Magna comes though again. He is correct. They are not related except for the fact that Carrey considers Lewis an inspiration.

Here is another good one like the one above
Change just 1 letter in each blank row to make a new word, working your way from Cold to Heat



Your answer should include at least 3 words, if not all 5.

Find the word that fits the definitions below when it’s 1) a whole word and 2) divided into two separate words.

1) Whole word: an animal

2) Two words: a. to breathe quickly
b. a personal pronoun

So your answer should include 3 separate words. (1 for #1 and 2 for #2)

The names of three cities (not in the U.S.) are hidding in the sentences below. Can you find them? (The letters are in consecutive order.)

“Steven, I centered the whole trip on your wishes. It is base logic to blame me.”
The Second World War saw much destruction.

Looking at the 1st 3 squares below and figure out the pattern so you can guess the missing letter in that last box.
Your answer should be sentence of sort.

Place the same four-letter word in each blank below to make four common words.

______ RIDGE
______ OON
______ ILAGE
______ EL


So I would like your answer to include 5 words total. The 4 letter word plus all of the 4 words above.

So, this next question is a little different. In real life I run nature programs for the park service, and today I spent the whole day out in the woods catching critters. Below are all the live snakes I have at the moment. First person to correctly ID all of them, gets +1.

#1


#2


#3 (and my favorite. it is an absolute stunningly beautiful snake. mine is only about 2 feet long)


#4


#5


And finally, a really tough one. This is a nasty bugger and the only one I have even been bitten by.
I am including an extra picture to help. Make sure you get this one right, or your whole answer won't count.

#6
