No not the ones from SNL. I just read this in Arthur C. Clarke's The City and Stars and had to capture it. It could be something really profound or it could just be the beer.

"When beauty is universal, it loses its power to move the heart, and only its absence can produce any emotional effect"

So basically another variation of the balance concept exemplified by yin and yang, just applied to beauty. I like it. You're still drunk though.

There is no remedy for drink but to drink more. (with my usual apologies to H.D. Thoreau) *goes to the fridge for another*

As a non-drinker, I can assure you it's not the beer. Unless I have that weird condition where I have the same bacteria in my gut that allows for alcohol to ferment. That would explain my lack of balance and tendency to slur my speech...

While I admit that having that condition is intriguing it is probably not conducive in day to day life and I hope that hasn't happened to you. Being inebriated should be a choice.
