Justified Alcohol 0>)

[Terry B]

as explained by Cliff Clavin, of
Cheers. One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff Clavin was explaining the Buffalo
Theory to his buddy Norm.

Here's how it went:

"Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only
move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the
slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first This natural
selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and
health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the
weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as
fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know,
kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain
cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker
brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's
why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

No one could argue with such logic!
Cheers...so to speak

Cheers... One of the few, very few, really good sitcoms!

That's like the one that goes:
25 per.cent of all road crashes involve alcohol. Therefore 75 percent do not involve alcohol. Ergo- It's safer to drink and drive!

I'd heard this before (and seen the episode). I forgot about the last line though .....

That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

That's pure Gold. I can picture Norm raising a glass to that one.......

Oldie but still a goodie.
