The
Theory of Intelligence


I don't think I've ever heard the concept explained any better than this. As explained to Norm by Cliff " Cheers "

'Well
you see, Norm, it's like this . . . A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as
the slowest buffalo. And when the heard 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 is why you always
feel smarter after a few beers
