Like I'm going to give up sex or coffee. Right. Given that choice, I'll die, thank you very much. In fact, I'll just go on with all of the above...

Also, crossing the street increases your chance of being hit by a car, flying increases your chances of being involved in a plane crash, swimming increases your chances of drowning, and living increases exponentially your chances of dieing.

Leave me alone and let me enjoy my life....and while you're at it...stop wasting money on useless studies...use the funding for something worthwhile....how to stop politicians from lieing for instance.... :)

Oh, I understand that they need to prove scientifically the things we think we know by way of anecdotes. Maybe they can discover why lust between adults makes children thirsty, and how to delay that need for a drinik of water. There is as much chance of keeping a politician from lying as there is of keeping him from breathing- in fact, I suspect you'd have to do the latter in order to make the former happen. I'm not even sure that would be enough, since so many pols end up lying in state.

I wonder if rigorous sex, like exercise, practiced regularly, increases or decreases the risk. I'm pretty sure it likely decreases the risk overall. At least that is what I learned in my public speaking class back in undergrad when Kat gave an amazing presentation on the health benefits of rigorous sex.

For more credible info on the health benefits of sex, see this WSJ article:

That's it! No more blowing my nose, while having sex with a cup of coffee and working out for me!

How did this Dr. know my routine?

If somebody tries to take my coffee away, that person will be the one with an aneurysim, stroke and anything else my caffiene deprived mind can come up with...

Yet another misleading headline!! They made it sound like this study applies to everyone, but in fact it applies only to the TINY percentage of the population with brain aneurysm. COME ON, MSNBC!! GIVE US A BREAK!

If you intend to live forever, you will be one bored and boring individual that has the blandest crappy diet-quit taking all the fun away. Now back to my beer.......

Does the risk change if it's good sex or bad sex? Caffinated or decaf?

 Damn. Does this mean I'm gonna wake up dead tomorrow?

I don't know what the big deal is about sex. I'm 47 and I've never had sex with anyone. No desire at all. I drink little coffee.

uh, I'll take my chances thank you. Most pointless study ever!

No Sex? No coffee? Hell I might as well suck on the barrel of my 45. Get real "researchers" or is further studies needed? This study is a joke just like the one about wine. Bad for you one week and good the next then bad then good again.

This just in:

Stroke increases risk of sex!

Stroke me stroke me! Stroke! Stroke!

Damn! I've been under the illusion that coffee was bad for you most of my life. Couple years back I read about it now had been determined to actually be good for you. So, I started a slow, gradual intake of coffee. Enough though, that I now want that coffee fix regularly. How now to quit?! A bit different was the story with sex. So, gave it a try, and damn, liked it! Now I find out it's bad for you. Well, no changes to be made with my lifestyle in that regard. Though I like it, can't get it, so nothing to cut back on!

Hey they forgot the biggest cause and that is  "ALCOHOL"

@Jennia - What is bad sex, the worst I ever had was wonderful.

If you live your life by surveys, you might as well be dead.

So if you have sex and drink coffee simultaneously....

One could say you'd just go out 'in style' ;)

Why bother living if you can't have coffee!

Well I'm not a coffee drinker but this weekend for Mother's Day I hope to spend some time with my wife of 25 years and raise each others blood pressure.
