For all you couch patotoes

Now you have someone to blame for your laziness. Your parents. It seems that your desire for afternoon napping, and watching re-runs of I Love Lucy all day long whilst everyone else is scurrying around you are in your family genes.

Instead of blaming yourself for your sloothness, it’s nice to know that you now have a scientific reason to blame someone else.

Use it or Lose it

In keeping up with the theme that was started with the watermelon post, we now have a study out of the American Journal of Medicine about the frequency of sex and erectile dysfunction.

The study concludes:

Regular intercourse protects against the development of erectile dysfunction among men aged 55 to 75 years. This may have an impact on general health and quality of life; therefore, doctors should support patients’ sexual activity.

I guess the key to happiness when you get older is to eat lots of watermelon and have frequent sex. And here I always thought it was money.
