The Science Teacher
The science teacher explained to his class that long waves can go round objects but short waves cannot. Seeing blank faces, he picked up his hat, held it in front of his face and asked the nearest pupil, “Can you see my face?”
“No sir.”
“Can you hear my voice?”
“Yes sir.”
“What does that show?” He hoped for the answer that sound waves are long and light waves short, but the boy retorted hopefully,
“You’re talking through your hat, sir.”
*be talking through your hat = to talk nonsense – to be talking about a subject as if you know a lot about it when in fact you know very little.
