STUDY FINDS: THAT'S NOT 'ALL SHE WROTE'

Scientists have debunked the idiom “that’s all she wrote” by proving that she wrote more.

“The research really shocked us,” said Dr. Noah Swayne, who headed the five-year study at a cost to taxpayers of $18 million. 

President Trump plans to sign an executive order next week to alter the idiom to read "she wrote too much.”

SCIENTIST REFUTES CLAIMS THAT IT WOULD BE 'BETTER' IF OUR SKIN WAS MADE OF SPONGELIKE MATERIAL


COMMENTARY: DR. NOAH SWAYNE, SCIENTIST
  

It is disheartening to constantly hear otherwise learned and sensible people bemoan the fact that our skin is not made of sponge or sponge-like material. 

While wishing our bodies were covered with sponge instead of skin might be the "cool," "trendy" thing, it would pose untold dangers. I say this from a SCIENTIFIC perspective as a SCIENTIST.

Let me explain the SCIENCE: In a heavy rain, our bodies would absorb so much water that our weight would NEARLY DOUBLE. We would collapse to the floor in a massive, wet puddle due to this added weight. It would be almost impossible for us to walk to the tobacco shop or jump on the trampoline. We would need to get a (dried out!) friend to SQUEEZE the water out of us (a painful process--I can attest!) just so we could stand up and walk around the room! Getting a shower every morning would be a SHOWER NIGHTMARE!

So, the next time someone says that it would be "BETTER" if our bodies were covered with sponge or sponge-like material instead of skin, just point out these simple SCIENTIFIC facts!
