Sometimes when I reflect on all the beer I drink, I feel ashamed. Then
I
look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all
of
their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out
of
work, and their dreams would be shattered. I think, "It is better to
drink
this beer and let their dreams come true, than be selfish and worry
about
my liver."
Babe Ruth

An intelligent man is sometimes forced to be drunk to spend time with

fools in his life.

24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not.

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!

Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.

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.

One night at Cheers, Cliff Clavin explained the "Buffalo Theory" to his
buddy, Norm. "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..
...as if you needed to rationalize beer-drinking!
