Swishing

A woman goes to the Doctor, with bruises on her face.

The Doctor asks: "What happened?"

The woman says: "Doctor, I don't know what to do. Every time my husband
comes home drunk, he slaps me around."

The Doctor says: "I have a real good cure for that. When your husband
comes home drunk, just take a glass of water and start swishing it in your
mouth. Just swish and swish but don't swallow it until he goes to bed and
is asleep."

Two weeks later the woman comes back to the doctor looking fresh and reborn.

The woman says: "Doctor that was a brilliant idea! Every time my husband
came home drunk, I swished with water. I swished and swished, and he
didn't touch me! How does the water do that?"

The Doctor says: "The water does nothing at all ¦it's keeping your mouth
shut that does the trick...."
