A professor of chemistry wanted to teach his 9th grade class a lesson about the evils of liquor, so he produced an experiment that involved a glass of water, a glass of whisky, and two worms.
'Now, class. Observe closely the worms,' said the professor putting a worm first into the water. The worm in the water writhed about, happy as a worm in water could be.
The second worm, he put into the whisky. It writhed painfully, and quickly sank to the bottom, dead as a doornail.
'Now, what lesson can we derive from this experiment?' the professor asked.
Scott, who naturally sits in back, raised his hand and wisely, responded, 'Drink whisky and you won't get worms.'
