The Value of a Drink
"Sometimes when I reflect back on all the wine I drink
I feel shame. Then I look into the glass and think
about the workers in the vineyards and all of their hopes
and dreams .. If I didn't drink this wine, they might be
out
of work and their dreams would be shattered.
Then I say to myself, "It is better that I drink this
wine and let their
dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my
liver."
~ Jack Handy.

not go nearly as well with pizza."

And saving the best for last, as explained by Cliff
Clavin,of Cheers.
One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff Clavin was explaining the
Buffalo Theory to his buddy Norm. 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
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
