Well My Dear I don't know what the schools are like there in your neck of the woods but didn't your teacher go on to explain to you that what really made that whale sick was that before swallowing Jonah he ate some real bad Sushi?
Oh yes, that shows clearly what happened, Tom! Mary Welby was my classmate, and my first encounter with a believer, in the literal sense. Other than the JWs who came by the farm, only to be chased by farm dogs. And the Mormons biking up the hill in their black suits. Mary Welby told tales with tails.

(And if Mary Welby was NOT your teacher, she had no business filling your head up with fiddlesticks like that!!)
Oh yes, that shows clearly what happened, Tom!
