Philosophy for the Weekend >"Sometimes when I reflect back on all the wine I drink I feel shamed. >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 >WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may leave you wondering what the >h*ll happened to your bra and panties. >~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >"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 >WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may create the illusion that you are >tougher, smarter, faster and better looking than most people. > >~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >"When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading." ~ Henny >Youngman >WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may lead you to think people are >laughing WITH you. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >"24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not." >~ Stephen Wright >WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may cause you to think you can sing. >~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >"When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we >fall asleep, we commit no sin. When we commit no sin, we go to heaven. >So, let's all get drunk and go to heaven!" ~ Brian O'Rourke >WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may cause pregnancy. >~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." >~ Benjamin Franklin >WARNING: The consumption of alcohol is a major factor in dancing like a >retard. >~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >"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." >~ Dave Barry >WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may cause you to tell your friends >over and over again that you love them. >~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >To some it's a six-pack, to me it's a Support Group. Salvation in a can! >~ Dave Howell >WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may make you think you can logically >converse with members of the opposite s e x without spitting. > >~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >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. That's why you always feel smarter after a few >beers." > >WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may make you think you are >whispering when you are not.
