It is funny how we laymen remember things by association. Mention economics, we think of 'supply and demand'; accountancy, 'debits and credits'; law, 'agreements'; and so on. Mention psychology, I would think of Pavlov's Dog!
I have just typed 'Pavlov' and among other things, there is even a game called Pavlov's Dog!
Pavlov's Dog
In this game, you will find out if you can train a dog to drool on command! Ivan Pavlov's description on how animals (and humans) can be trained to respond in a certain way to a particular stimulus, has drawn a tremendous amount of interest ever since he first presented his findings. His work paved the way for a new and objective method of studying animal and human behavior...
I was reminded of this when I came across this joke:
Church bells ringing will never be the same again
Sunday Mornings, Katie will never hear church bells ringing again without smiling.
Upon hearing that her elderly grandfather had just passed away, Katie went straight to her grandparent's house to visit her 95-year-old grandmother and comfort her.
When she asked how her grandfather had died, her grandmother replied, 'He had a heart attack while we were making love on Sunday morning.'
Horrified, Katie told her grandmother that 2 people nearly 100 years old having sex would surely be asking for trouble.
'Oh no, my dear,' replied granny. 'Many years ago, realizing our advanced age, we figured out the best time to
do it was when the church bells would start to ring. It was just the right rhythm. Nice and slow and even. Nothing too strenuous, simply in on the Ding and out on the Dong.'
She paused to wipe away a tear, and continued, 'He'd still be alive today if the ice cream truck hadn't come along.
