Are You a MENSA-Head?

Due to the overwhelming response, and by overwhelming I really mean underwhelming, and by response I really mean silence, MENSA-Head of the week has returned.

Over the course of my 32 years of blogging, I have come to the realization that for smart people, MENSA questions are the equivalent to dirty midget porn for deviants. You couldn't figure that last joke out, could you? That's because you're not MENSA material.

I have six questions for you today, six questions that will reshape your pointy head and send you into fits.
