I once read about a (supposedly) scientific study that was done in some university (I don’t remember which one) to determine whether it made any difference whether you ran or walked to get out of the rain. To make calculations easier, they assumed no wind, and a constant rate of rain. They said that, under these conditions, at any given time, a specific volume of air contained a specific amount of rain. They then envisioned a person as a rectangular cuboid, and figured that the person would pass through the same volume of air, and thereby be hit by the same volume of water, no matter how fast or slow he went. Their conclusion was that you’ll get equally wet, whether you walk or run to get out of the rain. But they forgot one thing – rain falls. While the same volume of water may hit the front of the cuboid, how much falls on its top depends on how long your out in the rain.

Snoopy wouldn’t have that attitude if he were a cat.

for some reason, this has always been one of my favorite Snoopy strips.

You don’t catch pneumonia in the rain, you catch it indoors out of the rain from some well meaning person who just has to come to work…
