Well ya see, Dowly, 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 alcohol 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.

So Dowly, it then stands to reason if you are confused by this it may be you haven't been drinking enough.

Age of Consent joke.

Hilarity varies based on jurisdiction.

You have a few days left to change your mind, but o the other side to work late, every day's food, which you surely appreciate, as well as your wallet will be charged,

Don't jump ship until you have secured your passage on another vessel

Obviously not, I have no interest in going on the dole. The resolution is to find a new job during the next year, not by new years.

I hear Vendor is looking for a PA.....you have to work 24 hour shifts which shouldn't prove problematic for you but are you a speed typist?
