(In one episode of ‘Cheers’, Cliff is seated at the bar describing the Buffalo Theory to his buddy, Norm. I don’t think I’ve ever heard the
concept explained any better than this….)
“Well you 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.
Now, as we know, excessive intake of alcohol 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.
And that, Norm, is why you always feel smarter after a few beers.”
Cheese.
Me loves some cheese.
Mmm…stuffed shells. Yummy. Me? I think I’d be happy if I got stuck with deep dish pizza with lots o sauce.
New Jersey sub sandwiches!! Five meats, provolone, the works with lots of oil, vinegar, and hot peppers.
Or maybe Krisy Kreme!!!

Eat crazy much? I think scbob eats crazy. God of crazy, watch out.
Side note: I love that show. :]
vietnamese noodle soup! hungry………
I also love me some chicken wings & beer. It’s a big plus with guys…
Scbob, I was all ready to concede, admitting that “all beer all the time” probably wasn’t such a good idea…..and then I read your entire post.
Heh.
Chicken wings! How could I forget! If we’re going to do some serious damage to the body in the best possible way, that’s the way to go.
