IQ score!

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I also find it fascinating that over a certain threshold, IQ tests become a negative predictor of material and interpersonal success.

It is fascinating.
One possible explanation is that being too different makes you grow up lonely and that is not good for a developing personality.

People with very high IQs are also more prone to depression and overuse of alcohol. It could be loneliness, for sure.

Or just seeing through the bullshit and knowing what's really there. That can drive a person to drink.

Correlation does not equal causation.

It could just be that alcohol makes you smarter, but more depressed.  Didn't think of that now, did you?  I did, because I had two beers before writing this post.

[Nephew Twiddleton]

Thats just stupid and rong.

Anyway researchers have discovered that rats and mice that have higher intelligence are more prone to drinking out of the water bottle that has alcohol in it. Its kinda strange since it apparently isnt limited to humanity.

Everything in moderation, including moderation.

My wife and I both have some Irish heritage.  We even honeymooned in Ireland. It makes me sad there is no craic in America.

My favorite Irish proverb is "you will never plow a field by turning it over in your mind"

The library at trinity college blew my fucking mind.  It's hard to describe what looking at books written by Newton and Hamilton is like.

It is a very beautiful country.

Renting a car was a mistake - we should've rented motorcycles. The roads in Ireland are amazing - no wonder Ireland is so well represented at the isle of man mc races.

Sorry to ramble on about Ireland.
