In one episode of "Cheers" Cliff is seated at the bar describing the Buffalo Theory to his buddy, Norm. I don't think I've heard the concept explained better than this.
"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 intake 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."

well Mr thinks you must come from the wild west and there must be a degeneration of brain cells out in the good old wild west ..or maybe its the consumption of jack Danial's which is attacking the brain cells faster than the beer
