Another Benefit To Boozing....

As reporting in Scientific American, drinking alchohol can actually enhance certain cognitive abilities...

"There are human epidemiological data of others indicating that mild [to] moderate drinking may paradoxically improve cognition in people compared to abstention," says Maggie Kalev, a research fellow in molecular medicine and pathology at the University of Auckland in New Zealand and a co-author of an article in The Journal of Neuroscience describing results of a study she and other researchers performed on rats. "This is similar to a glass of wine protecting against heart disease, however the mechanism is different."

In additional to increased cognitive abilities, I find that alchohol makes me funnier, more handsome, charming, more coordinated, able to stay up later and a host of other things.
