Rambling: A Little Quiz

I found this in one of my computer's e-mail storage folders. I'll list the quiz questions first, and then put the answers in the full post.
The following short quiz consists of 4 questions. Click "See the full post" to see the answers and the anonymous author's comments on each answer.
The questions are not that difficult.
1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?

3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend except one. Which animal does not attend?

4. There is a river you must cross. But it is inhabited by crocodiles. How do you manage it?

1. The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe and close the door. This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an overly complicated way.

2. Wrong Answer: Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant and close the refrigerator.
Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the elephant and close the door.
This tests your ability to think through the repercussions of your actions.

3. Correct Answer: The Elephant. The Elephant is in the refrigerator.
This tests your memory.

4. Correct Answer: You swim across. All the Crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting.
This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.

Hey, guess what was on the radio on the way to Mass tonight. "It has recently been reported that 3 out of 4 people make up 75% of the population." Uh... duh?

It took them that long to figure that out? :-)
