In order to brighten up the living room we bought a pet fish and an aquarium to put it in. The fish was brightly coloured and I often liked to watch it as it swam contentedly round and round its little rectangular tank of water. It was so friendly and tame that it was happy to take food directly out of my hand. Having an interest in the theories of Charles Darwin, as an experiment one day I decided to see how the fish would adapt to change. So each day I would remove a tablespoonful of the water and replace it with a tablespoonful of seawater. This went on for several months until eventually the fish was happily swimming around in pure seawater.I decided to reverse the process, and each day, I would remove a tablespoonful of seawater from the tank and replaced it with a tablespoonful of fresh water until the water in the tank was completely returned to fresh water. The fish was none the worse for his experience.Encouraged by this success I decided to try a further experiment. Each day I would remove a tablespoonful of the water from the tank to see if the fish could adapt to the changed circumstances of reduced water levels. Although the fish had difficulty adapting at first it was eventually able to lie on the bed of the tank and breath air. Later I decided to move the fish to a disused budgerigar cage and was surprised to see that the fish had adapted to its new circumstances and was cheerfully hopping from perch to perch, ringing the bell, and playing on the swing. The fish lived like this for several months until sadly one day it fell from its perch straight into the bowl of drinking water and drowned.

Water is importantWe all know that water is important but I’ve never seen it written down like this before.*** 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. *** In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.Even MILD dehydration will slow down one’s metabolism as much as 3%. One glass of water shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a U-Washington study. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water you should every day?

Una mujer y su hijita van a visitar la tumba de la abuela. Cuando vuelven a la casa, la nenita le pregunta:

“�Mam�, mam�! �A veces entierran a m�s de una persona en una misma tumba?”

“�Por supuesto que no! �de d�nde sacaste esa idea?”

“En la tumba de al lado de la de la abuela dec�a: Aqu� se encuentra enterrado un abogado y una buena persona.”
