Speaking of beer.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sometimes when I reflect on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then
I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and
all
of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be
out of work and their dreams would be shattered. I think, "It is
better
to drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and
worry about my liver."
-Babe Ruth-

Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is
beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but
the wheel does not go nearly as well with
pizza. -- Dave Barry

One night at Cheers, Cliff Clavin explained the "Buffalo Theory" to
his buddy Norm:
"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.
