A professor of
chemistry wanted to teach his 5th grade class a lesson about the
evils of liquor, so he produced an experiment that involved a glass
of water, a glass of whiskey, and two worms.
"Now, class, closely observe the
worms," said the professor while putting a worm into the water.
The worm in the water writhed about,
happy as a worm in water could be. He then put the second worm into
the whiskey. It curled up and writhed about painfully, then quickly
sank to the bottom, dead as a doornail.
"Now, what lesson can we learn from
this experiment?" the professor asked.
Little Johnny, who naturally sits in back, raised his hand and wisely,
responded confidently, "Drink whiskey and you won't get
worms."
