It's a quote from one of their songs.

Do you know it from someplace else??

Wave The quote has it's orgin from the bible - Jeremiah 5:12 -King James version, but was used, as we know it today, in 1738 by Jonathan Swift in "Polite Conversation" - no, I'm not a student of the bible, I used the quote once in a paper and had to identify the source.



Well now, you see 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 rear that are killed. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole because only the fittest survive thus improving the general health and speed of the entire herd.

In much the same way the human brain only operates as quickly as the slowest of it's brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol kills brain cells, as we all know, and naturally the alcohol attacks the slowest/weakest cells first....

So it is as plain as the nose on your face that regular consumption of Guinness will eliminate the weaker, slower brain cells thus leaving the remaining cells the best in the brain.

The end result, of course, is a faster more efficient brain.

If you doubt this at all, tell me, isn't it true that we always feel a bit smarter after a few pints?

Wave DUD3 You're sooooo smart! Got that Irish/English dictonary by your side? Western Ireland speaks it the most and they are reallly trying to keep it alive - hope they do.



Seamus do you understand French, I do if its spoken in Irish

Look, I never claimed that I was fluent in Irish ok? I don't why you're acting that way. And I DIDN'T have an Irish>English dictionary by my side, so if the first part was wrong, that's why.

And who is it BB? NA always uses that smiley, so is it her?
