Well, ya see Doug and Peter, 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 lowest 
brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we all 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 I always feel 
smarter after a few beers.
