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 elimates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers.

I'm right there with you, garmanma.
I hope they serve beer at MENSA meetings!

We do not serve beer at our MENSA meetings here.
It's self-serve from the tap and one must remember to bring one's own glass, mug, tin, or whatever. Beer hats are verboten. I did get away with using a two liter bota for several weeks. Until the next monthly meeting when they found me still in session. -------------------- The only easy day was yesterday....
