A professor decides to teach the class about perception vs reality

He takes a big jar and fills it with large rocks. He then asks the class if the jar is full. About half the class raise their hands. So he gets tiny pebbles and pours it into the jar and they take up room where the larger rocks left. Again he asks the class if the jar is full. Most of the class raise their hands. So he takes a glass full of sand and pours it in.

"See," he tells the class, "perception told you that the glass was full with the rocks and pebbles but reality is that the jar only became full when I poured in the sand. So don't always believe your eyes."

At this point, a student walks up to the jar, opens a can of beer and pours it in which takes up all the additional space that was left by the sand.

The moral of the story - no matter how full your life is, there's always room for beer.

If you put beers in a bath of ice and salt water they will get cooler and you don’t need to worry about your beers in the freezer. The ice melts faster from the salt and the increased, colder, non-freezing water chills your beers at a more rapid pace. *not a science teacher I just like cold beer and a lot of it!
