I am now editing an article titled (for real) "Acute Coffee Ingestion Does Not Affect LDL Cholesterol". My boss figured I'd be the best person to edit it, being a junkie and all.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Well, good to know.
How do they measure acute coffee ingestion? How many cups in what time period?
And really, wouldn't chronic coffee ingestion be more relevant to study?

I'm going to answer the last question first.
And really, wouldn't chronic coffee ingestion be more relevant to study?
That's what *I* said!
How do they measure acute coffee ingestion? How many cups in what time period?
Apparently it's whether a single 6-ounce cup of coffee* will affect fasting plasma lipid profiles, if the patient fasts but has a cup of coffee in the morning before the blood draw.
*(Coffee black, and with nondairy creamer and/or sugar, were all tested.)

Don't pull your Psych Grad Student lingo on me! I am NOT being transferry!
You calling me Riley, Beeotch?
I think acute coffee ingestion affects insulin levels though, doesn't it?

Gah. A friend of mine is getting married in the fall and her mother just called to harangue her about her dress "which isn't going to make your waist look as small as you think it is," and her diet in general because "I want to be able to look back at the wedding photos and say how beautiful you were."
Can we get The Minister over here, pronto?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Luckily (in that respect, at least), I've never gotten married. However, once when I had a horribly painful sore throat and cough my mother gave me a lecture about the calories/sugar content of cough drops.
