How drinking vodka makes you more creative snip - A new study suggests that a couple of swigs of the clear spirit can make a man think quicker on his feet. Time to break out the Belvedere? Too much vodka will make anyone slur his sentences, but groundbreaking new research suggests that just the right amount could make a guy wittier with his words. Thanks, science? Here's what you know should you choose to imbibe… for creativity's sake, of course:
How much vodka are we talking? Not a lot. Researchers tested 20 men using a "moderate" amount of vodka mixed with cranberry juice, cutting the volunteers off when their blood alcohol level reached 0.075 percent (or just below the legal limit in the United States).

It's not that this necessarily qualifies as "news" insomuch as validation, carte blache would you have, of a certain lifestyle activity.

I always perceive myself as wittier and more awesome after a drink or two. I will print out copies of this to hand to others when they try to dispute that it's just in my head.

Sure, with just a little bully and crybaby mixed in for good measure. It comes in a shot, but is best drunk by the pitcher and not by the glass. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. (Thanks you, Loretta Lynn)
