    I don't know... sometimes we aren't at all like sheep. We're the leaders of the pack. A few days ago I was out shopping and there was a man in a wheelchair struggling with the really heavy doors or a shop (you know the type that try and stop you from going in?). I rushed forward to help the man at the same time as a few others, instead of us all standing by and watching.

    'Poor' politicians? Are we not the poor ones?

    Take the last letter of that country and think of an animal that starts with that letter

    Take the last letter of the animal and think of a colour....

    I think the "red hammer" one was good because it was so unexpected - I had never seen that before and thought the test was all about mental arithmetic. I guess it's the same with a lot of "magic" tricks - the magician distracts your attention, or makes you concentrate on something to distract you while he does what he has to do.

    I'll bet you said Denmark, Kangaroo and Orange
    Nope. Denmark, kookaburra, and amethyst Right on one count

    When I was younger, the kookaburra was my favourite animal (I'm odd, I know) which is why I think of that before kangaroo

    ...or maybe I really am a psychopath
