Achoo!

When I was reading this cool article about sneezing recently, I learned that infants sneeze mostly through their noses. As we get older we learn to sneeze through our mouths, and apparently, that's not as effective at clearing your sinuses. So when I got that familiar tickle in my nostrils today, I thought that I might try the baby way.

The resulting blast sounded so funny that I ended up with more giggling than sinus-clearing. And then I had to explain to the students within earshot why my sneeze made me laugh.
