So if you lose your marbles and go to Starbucks, you might be able to find your marbles in the bottom of your Obama cup?

Old Ben was a pretty smart fellow. The only difference is that I can have two or three cups of coffee in the morning and still go to work. ;-)

If it is just coffee, I'm OK.
I seem to remember a study that showed nicotine was also helpful in curbing Alzheimers...
My father didn't drink much coffee, but it wasn't too long after he quit smoking that he was diagnosed with Alzheiners...

Sorry to hear about your dad.
When I was a smoker, I used to cling to the positive brain effects. Supposedly it helped you on tests if you kept your nicotine level the same as when you were studying.
I got duped, though. Smoking might have some slight Alzheimer benefit, but it's more likely it will kill you dead before you can get to that age. I'm sorry I ever smoked. Hope that I quit in time.

“I drink O.J. Simpson coffee strong, black and bitter.”
I tried that once, but I kept getting sharp stabbing pains.

I tried that once, but I kept getting sharp stabbing pains. You could try Viagra coffee instead. But it will keep you up all night.

Too much coffee, I guess.
