Apart from all this stuff, though, I think I consume more caffeine

Pepsi, but I keep putting it off 'til another time. Anyone want to
provide some motivation for me? :-)


I sure won't help you :P

A week or so ago I heard caffeine is good for warding off Alzheimer's.
Several of the women in my family had/have mental conditions and I'll
take any help I can get. When I've asked friends if I seem loony, they
say "only in a *good* way" and I'd be showing some signs by now. I've
started doing online crossword puzzles to help stay sharp.

Hmmmm - four letter word for COFFEE g

You sound like my father, who has done the Daily Telegraph crossword
puzzle (the cryptic one, not the easy one!) almost every day for at
least the last 60 years. Now he is terrified of going senile, as all
his uncles did when they were 80 (he was 80 last birthday) and does
puzzles of every kind almost obsessively, plus plays chess with himself
(on a chess computer) the rest of the time - drives my mother spare!
And I notice the parents are playing bridge far more than they used.

Daughter's fiance doesn't help by being a ranked chess player, who will
very kindly give my father a game whenever they meet. Daddy has
actually beaten him once.....

Java - but then you knew that! I like to play Free Cell online as I've
never cared too much for crossword puzzles. I think I read the same
article. I started drinking regular coffee at work instead of the
decaffinated.
