It's expensive, it can destroy brain cells, and it can impair judgement....yet the lastest buzz is that intelligent people drink more alcohol. So how might we test this theory? What would such a test look like? Well, let's see....first, we should seek out some highly intelligent people and some equally less intelligent people. Then, invite them all to a big party where alcohol is flowing freely. Then observe closely to see who drinks the most. Of course, intelligence can be subjective so there would need to be a test of some sort before the drinking could commence. A rubics cube? The ink blot test? Or just a standard old IQ test perhaps? Keeping track of who is who could also pose a problem. Do the less intelligent people where name tags? How would you identify the smart people? Would the brand of alcohol enter into the equation? Does a smarter person choose the better brand and the less intelligent person the house brand? Hmmmmm, that's alot to ponder without a glass of wine in my hand! I'd best stick to looking intelligent by continuing to drink plenty of wine, staying up late and ensuring that others are well informed on how to do the same.
In the meantime, let me just mention that I did have the occasion to sample a lovely wine called D 'O. Now, there is supposed to be an accent on the O. Looking at the bottle some might call it Doh (think Homer Simpson) I prefer to call it "Day Oh". I don't know/care if I'm right or wrong, but it just didn't feel right sounding like Homer. It's from Portugal and is a red blend, light, fruity with a flavour that lingers in your mouth. Great price (under $20 a bottle), great taste, what more do we need? Now that's higher intelligence!
Cheers!
