No Sweat

‘EL Paso, Texas. It’s lent its name to a range of Tex-Mex ready meals. And it has now topped even that. Officially, El Paso is now the sweatiest place in the entire US of A. Science says so.

Researchers discovered that El Paso residents produce enough sweat in four hours to fill an Olympic-sized swimming pool. Whether this fact as based on actually wringing the locals out in a pool or a guess is not revealed, but we do know one thing for sure – the mayor is not as sweaty as he once was.

In honour of his city’s achievements, he’s been given a year’s supply of antiperspirant.’
