Researchers released a list of foods and activities to help
combat osteoporosis, the dread disorder that leaches calcium
from the bones as people age.

The distinguished lead scientist mounts the podium to make
his announcement and gives the highlights of the list. To no
one's surprise, broccoli and cauliflower are there, and the
researchers also encourage regular exercise, such as walking,
running, cycling or swimming to prevent calcium loss from the
bones.

But, one reporter, reading ahead, shouts from the front row,
"You've got kissing on the list as a way to prevent
osteoporosis! There isn't any calcium in a kiss!"

The scientist replied calmly, "In a good kiss, there's enough calcium to make a bone about 6 inches long."
