Cliff Clavin on why beer is good....

"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 drinking 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."

I don't like beer, or much alcohol for that matter. I don't know why, just don't enjoy it.

I get what I like to refer to as a "contact buzz". When others are drinking around me & start to get goofy, I get caught up in it, almost to the point where I walk silly, haha

Other than that, alcohol just makes me sick, in any amount.

I drink very occasionally, and only in small amounts... I'm just not big on that buzz as a rule. Just a touch too much, and I get a pukey feeling. The other stuff? Hell, they use that to treat nausea! :D --->JMS

I don't like beer at all. They all taste like Michelob to me. When I was around 7 or 8, I would sneak drinks of my grandfather's beer and all he ever drank was Michelob. I've probably been cursed, lol.

Wow. I guess so. That's quite a curse. I'd seek out a witchdoctor for help.

Don't think I've had a Michelob since...1984. Used to pick some up at a friend's
grandparents. His grandmother would yell at him for taking an "Old woman's
beer". She didn't mean that he was TAKING it, but that Michelob was for old
women.

Even then, I knew it was swill. She used to say to me (Actually, kind of seer
it) "You don't like that, do you?". Nope. She'd then give me some Heineken.

Here are some reasons that Beer is sooooo good!

"Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza."

"The problem with the world is that everyone is a few drinks behind."
-Humphrey Bogart

"Always remember that I have taken more out of alcohol than alcohol has taken out of me."
-Winston Churchill

"Make sure that the beer - four pints a week - goes to the troops under fire before any of the parties in the rear get a drop."
-Winston Churchill to his Secretary of War, 1944

"If God had intended us to drink beer, He would have given us stomachs."
-David Daye

"One of the hallmarks of the baby boomer generation is that it doesn't live like the previous generation. It hasn't yet given up jeans and T-shirts or beer."
-Ron Klugman, SVP, Coors Brewing

"I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer."
-Abraham Lincoln

"I drink to make other people interesting."
-George Jean Nathan

"A bar is better than a newspaper for public discussion."
-Jim Parker, on the importance of a healthy pub culture

"He was a wise man who invented beer."
-Plato

"I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day."
-Frank Sinatra

"All right, brain, I don't like you and you don't like me - so let's just do this and I'll get back to killing you with beer."
-Homer Simpson

"You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline - it helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer."
-Frank Zappa

and my personal fav!!

"An intelligent man is sometimes forced to be drunk to spend time with his fools."
-For Whom the Bell Tolls, Ernest Hemmingway
"Beer is proof God loves us!!!"
Ben Franklin-1779
