Spankings Make You Smarter

LUCERNE, Switzerland - A whack on the fanny boosts your brain's ability to store and recall information - and can help college students ace exams, a fascinating new study shows.
Experts at the Lucerne Institute of Psychological Research have found that your brains may indeed be connected with your behind.
A study of 150 college student volunteers found that following some swats on their seats their ability to remember facts increased an average of 38 percent!
Students who were barely passing at the time they agreed to submit to the spankings raised their grade point averages dramatically after repeated blows to their buns.
"We found the adrenaline rates increased significantly during the spankings," says psychologist Dr. Crispin Heinz.
"And the resulting endorphins used to minimize the pain combined with the adrenaline to effectively open up previously underutilized neural pathways - turning them into IQ hyperlinks!"
Beware of study buddies bearing paddles. :o
