I've found the fountain of youth, the cure for aging and wrinkles.




Don't look at reflective surfaces.

I heard all this talk about hearing-aids and thought I'd see if anyone really needed one!

I heard this true story the other day and I thought it was very interesting. Let's see if I can tell it correctly:

Researchers have discovered that monkeys who lived on the far island off Japan were very malnourished. They have noticed that those particular monkeys would only eat fruit that fell off the trees. Since the fruit was dirty with little pieces of rocks and sand, it would cause for their teeth to chip, break and deteriorate...which in result would cause poor digestion and malnutrition. Researchers have decided to teach the monkeys to pick up the fruit and rinse it in water of the lakes near them. Since monkeys have learned how to wash their fruit, their health dramatically improved.

The most interesting part of that story is that those same researchers wondered off to another near by island...and guess what they found? Monkeys were washing their fruit! They had not been on this island before, it's like a power of telepathy.

Okay, so I just googled this story and apparently it is not true, just a myth. I'm so disillusioned.

I was hoping they taught the lazy monkeys to put some effort into it and pick up clean fruit from the trees.
