Logical Conclusions
 
frog
 
 
In an attempt to get an A in his anatomy class, the Med Tech student designed an experiment for his frog.

He placed the little critter on the table and shouted, "jump, frog, jump". The frog jumped 20 inches. He dutifully records the results in his notebook.

With great care he then surgically removed one of the frog's legs. He again cried out "jump, frog , jump". The frog then jumps 15 inches, and he records the results.

He then removes another leg and shouts "jump, frog, jump". This time, the frog can only manage 10 inches. He records "frog with two legs jumps 10 inches.

He then removes the third leg, and says "jump, frog, jump". He then records that the frog jumped only 5 inches on one leg.

After he removes the fourth leg. Again, he shouts "jump, frog, jump". When the frog did not budge, the Med Tech student thought for a while, then entered into his notebook the logical conclusion: "Frogs with no legs will go deaf".
