Variety and Quiz

Posted by Pat J on June 12, 2009

I continue to try to come up with new ideas for designs in my product lines. I have a few new ways to accessorize with one of my most popular products. The Chapstick necklace came first. I’ve sold quite a few of these over the years. And in trying to keep the idea fresh and versatile, I’ve decided to offer two other ways to keep track of your favorite chapstick. These are pictured below.
They can be found on my web store site at Beads I View by Pat, just check my category for Chapstick Necklaces and Chapstick Holders.

Short Quiz

The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and will tell you whether you are qualified to be a professional. The questions are NOT that difficult.

1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe, and close the door. This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an overly complicated way.

2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?

Did you say, Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close the refrigerator?

Wrong Answer.

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 previous actions.

3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend…. except one. Which animal does not attend?

Correct Answer: The Elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator. You just put him in there. This tests your memory.

Okay, even if you did not answer the first three questions correctly, you still have one more chance to show your true abilities.

4. There is a river you must cross but it is used by crocodiles, and you do not have a boat. How do you manage it?

Correct Answer: You jump into the river and swim across. Have you not been listening? All the crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting. This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.
