Me too, Unified Field Theory on my tomorrow to do list!!

I always knew we Aussies carried a certain intellectual advantage over everyone else...now I know why!!!
"But the message of the article is a bit like saying "Shooting yourself in the face clears your nasal passages."
Premise B negates the frazzled special pleading of Premise A--and within the framework of one declarative sentence and it's immediate subordinate.
Reading comprehension and logical counter-repartee are obviously not your forte.
Sounds to me like you could use a drink to bolster those dimly flickering synapses...*snicker*...
So, that half bottle of Ouzo I shared with my husband on my birthday night made me smarter? Woohoo! And I felt so stupid the day after. Sheese. Silly me.
Unified Field Theory is small potatoes and so yesterday. You need to drink more and faster.
So, wassssuuupppp!
I certainly thought there would be more Homer Simpson on this thread.
One night at Cheers, Cliff Clavin explained the "Buffalo Theory" to his

Well actually, the operative word is, think.
You Aussies think you carry an intellectual advantage, mate. Bottoms up!
BTW, I love your FOSTERS commercial. The woman crushing that large beer can on her forehead. Now there's a genius. ;^)
I knew it !
Homer:
All right brain, you don't like me, and I don't like you. But let's just get me through this, and I can get back to killing you with beer.
Homer's brain:
It's a deal!
This clears up a lot of questions!
Which all explains why Ted Kennedy's arteries didn't seize up a decade or two ago. Heck, his offspring probably got colicky without a little whiskey in their baby bottle.
If this is true, I can call Steve Hawkins, dufus. YOu will excuse me I have to go calculate py to its last digit. Be back in ten.
That explains why I got a headache this morning, my brain is outgrowing my head!
This explains it all.
Why the French are always so condescending. They've known all along that they're smarter than everyone else. Thats why they value their whine so much.
OOPS! Stupid me. I mispelled whine.
OOPS! Did it again. I must have a problem with the French and their treasured beverage.
The old saw about "everything in moderation". Science is more and more proving the truth of it.
But while this might sound good in theory, the Swedish team believe these new cells could contribute to the development of alcohol dependence.
D'oh!
Excellent deduction - makes perfect sense to me!
