Kick Your Heels Up! Let’s all go wash our hands. Try not to be so defensive, I just washed my hands too. Hot water feels good, but does not necessarily bring death to microorganisms. I was taught that the temperature required to actually destroy germs is 140 degrees Fahrenheit. The flow of water mobilizes germs away from the surface of your tissues, and the friction from rubbing hand against hand detaches unwanted bacteria, fungi spores and virii.
Some of my teachers suggested singing “Happy Birthday” by Pat and Millie Hill (1893). That only applies to Tauruses though. I would thereby suggest “My Blue Heaven”
It’s longer, so your hands will be cleaner. Boosh!
