RE: Is it just me?

Hi Kim,

It's late and I'm drunk, so I'll answer your Kafka post later. But the
Céline one is easy. Guignol's Band follows Death.... and is an advancement
on the style. It comes with a delightful preface that is vintage LF.

It's also funnier than the first two. And shorter.

Enjoy,

--John

CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE BEER DRINKER
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 "Sometimes when I reflect back 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. Then I say to myself, "It
is
better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish
and
worry about my liver."

Jack Handy

"I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the
morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day. "

his fools."<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =

"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."

As explained by Cliff Clavin, of Cheers One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff
Clavin was explaining the Buffalo Theory to his buddy Norm. Here's how it
went:
"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.
