Am I the only one who reads media blurbs from health studies and wonders why the heck  they spend good money to prove something that everyone already knows? There’s a little thing called common sense, that I fear most scientists think we have all lost.

Actually, maybe most of us have, and that’s why there’s a need to do “scientific studies” on common sense issues. Okay, I’m trying not to be negative, but tell me if there is a resounding DUH heard in your part of the world as you read this scientific finding out loud:

Researchers say cardio exercise gives the central nervous system a  jolt, naturally invigorating you. (How loud was the DUH? Did it sound like a convention for short bussers? Over here, as well.)

Essentially, the brainiacs  at Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics took a bunch of tired folks who sat around on their asses all day and had no energy, put them on a bike three days a week and voila! Their energy rose by 65%. I always thought I wasn’t smart enough to be a scientist. Turns out I was wrong. Gals, this study proves we’re all smart enough. Go get your beakers and lab coats and meet me in the lab; it’s time to cure cancer.
