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.
Johnny, who naturally sits in back, raised his hand and wisely,
responded confidently, "Drink whiskey and you won't get worms."
