The Buffalo Theory

This is the beauty of science; the ability to explain (rationalize?) natural
phenomenon...

I have not seen anyone explain this as well as Cliff Clavin, on the sitcom
Cheers. One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff was explaining the Buffalo Theory
to his buddy Norm. And 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 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 you always feel smarter after a few beers."

Hey.... It makes perfect sense after a few!


HAVE A GOOD WEEK!
