Critical Thinking Skills test.

Updated Feb 10, 2009 at 05:49 AM by eriksoln

OK. In honor of my "Define Critical Thinking" thread, I will now post a riddle to test everyones critical thinking skills. I am anxious to see how people do. So come on all you "This and that nurse doesnt think critically, they are task oriented" types, show us if you can.

First the riddle, followed by the answer.

RIDDLE

WHAT AM I?
Arnold Schwarzenegger has a large one.

Michael J. Fox has a small one.

Madonna doesnt have one at all.

The Pope has one but does not use it.

Clinton uses his all the time.

Bush is one.

Mickey Mouse has an unusual one.

Liberace never used his on women.

Jerry Seinfeld is very, very proud of his.

Cher claims she took on 3.

We never saw Lucy use Desi's.

What am I?



************************************************** ***********************************
THE ANSWER
NO CHEATING
TRY TO SOLVE THE RIDDLE YOURSELF FIRST.


Da ncing to the tune of Jeopardy's "Final Jeopardy" song.



ANSWER
I am....................a last name.


And you thought I was posting a dirty joke. Shame on you and your dirty thoughts.
