something my wife got sent...
MIND GAME 2% or 98% This is strange...can you figure it out? Are you the 2% or 98% of the population? Follow the instructions! NO PEEKING AHEAD! * Do the following exercise, guaranteed to raise an eyebrow.
* There's no trick or surprise. * Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a time and as quickly as you can!
* Again, as quickly as you can but don't advance until you've done each of them ... really.
* Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you might miss something).
Think of a number from 1 to 10 8 Multiply that number by 9 72
If the number is a 2-digit number, add the digits together
9 Now subtract 5
4 Determine which letter in the alphabet corresponds to the number you ended up with
(example: 1=a, 2=b, 3=c,etc.) D Think of a country that starts with that letter Denmark Remember the last letter of the name of that country K Think of the name of an animal that starts with that letter
Kiwi Remember the last letter in the name of that animal i Think of the name of a fruit that starts with that letter i Are you thinking of a Kangaroo in Denmark eating an Orange?
I told you this was FREAKY!! If not, you're among the 2% of
the population whose minds are different enough to think of something else. 98% of people will answer with kangaroos
in Denmark when given this exercise. Freaky, huh? Keep this message going. This one is actually worth sending
on to others. Forward it to people you know so they can find
out if th

I think the trick is in the numbers bit in the beginning.. whichever nr you choose you'll get a 4, which gives you a D, and I don't think there are a lot of countries beginning with a D in English.
