I did one of these tests once, but I can't remember how well I did.

Which reminds me of the man who went back to his doctor to hear the results of his tests.

The doctor warned him that that they contained bad news, and he would tell him the worst first, which was that he had cancer. Also he had Alzheimer's Disease.

The patient said, "Oh just Alzheimer's, is it? That's not too bad. Glad it's not cancer."
