OUT OF THE BOX.THE MENSA STORY.

 Some Years Ago, there was a Mensa Convention in San Francisco. Mensa, as you know, is A National Organization for People who have An IQ of 140 or Higher.

Several of The Mensa Members went out for Lunch at a Local Cafe.

When they sat down, 1 of them discovered that The Salt Shaker contained Pepper & The Pepper Shaker was full of Salt.

How could they Swap The Contents of The 2 Bottles without spilling any & using only The Implements At Hand? Clearly this was A Job for Mensa Minds.

The Group debated the Problem, Presented Ideas & finally came up with A Brilliant Solution involving A Napkin, a Straw & an Empty Saucer.

They called The Waitress over, ready to Dazzle Her with Their Solution. “Miss”, they said,” We couldn’t help but notice that The Pepper Shaker contains Salt &

The Salt Shaker — “. But before they could finish, the Waitress interrupted, “Oh! Sorry about that”.

She leaned over The Table, Unscrewed the Caps of Both Bottles & Switched Them.

There was Dead Silence at The Mensa Table.
