This is gonna be a long thread...........

A drug is a drug, is a drug, whether you shoot it, snort, drink it or drop it on your eye. The "sharpest" people I know are not drug users.

I hope to drink myself seriously smart this weekend based on this news.

Didn't alchohol destroy brain cells? Even alchohol sharpens you up in short terms, it will be nothing in long term if it kills your brain cells, your organs, and your life by a car accident.

I've done the best studying in school at some level of intoxication. I had the best grades in my class at the Cisco Academy. Other students asked "How I did it?" I told them the secret is late night studying with a beer in one hand and a mouse in the other.

Now this is a study I can fully get behind. It MUST be true because I like the conclusion.

My plan to drink myself brilliant is still in effect.

[HEY4QDEMS]

BRILLIANT!!!!

To alcohol -- it tastes great, causes women appear more attractive, and makes a person virtually invulnerable to criticism. And now this.

Cheers!

[sweetiepiezer]

I will drink to that, cheers.

Good time for a quote from the movie Curse of the Black Pearl - - - After Elizabeth blew up the rum stash…………

"Why is the rum gone?" (Jack Sparrow)

"One: It is a despicable drink that turns even the most respectable men into complete scoundrels. And two: I've created a column of smoke that rises a thousand feet in the air. My father's ships will be combing the area. Do you think there is even a chance they won't see it?" (Elizabeth)

".... but why is the rum gone?" (Jack Sparrow)

It is news guaranteed to raise a cheer among those who enjoy a glass or two: drinking half a bottle of wine a day can make your brain work better, especially if you are a woman.

Yep, women are far more interesting when they are drunk....

[VRWCmember]

carried to the extreme, this guy ought to be one of the most intelligent people around:

[kittymyrib]

Hmmm...this may be junk science, because how do you explain the French? (They have a law that truckers cannot comsume more than half a bottle of wine at lunch before hitting the highway again.)

[Gabz]

so now I know why they are banning smoking in pubs in England - they are trying to get the teatotallers into the pubs............

yeah, right.

These researchers seem to be assuming that alcohol makes you smarter but I wonder if they considered the possibility that people with higher IQs are more simply likely to drink.
