Researchers in Baltimore, Maryland, carried out tests on 100 people
Showed them a series of images which they had to remember
Then gave some participants 200mg of caffeine - the same as a strong cup
Those who took dose could remember pictures more clearly the next day
Coffee doesn’t just perk you up – just one mug a day can give your memory a boost too, experts claimed yesterday.
‘We have always known caffeine has cognitive enhancing effects, but its particular effects on strengthening memories and making them resistant to forgetting has never been examined in detail in humans. We report for the first time a specific effect of caffeine on reducing forgetting over 24 hours.’

Plus sugar wasn’t so subsidized by the government making it cheap and plentiful. And high-fructose corn syrup had not yet been invented.
You should try Darksheare's coffee...
“Same here. Then I can remember how to work the coffee maker.”

Caffeine, nicotine, Benzedrine, wish me luck. - Hat tip to Jerry Reed.
Zactly. Me too, zactly.
Beautiful! This is a happy thread. :)
Haters gonna hate.
Oh heck yes. Get started now. Starbucks strength in the afternoon wires me for 36 hours. :) (I don’t do that strength very often, but very near it probably.
Let us know how it goes!
Oh that's just because it's black.
(No no that wasn't me, I didn't mean that, please forgive! I was suddenly overtaken by the spirit of Al Sharpton! b-b-brrrrrr--yow!!)
I use creamer, so it's a nice caramel color, like half black, half white. Oh, I did not say that either!! :))
Recently started using a french press. It’s very good. Only makes a few mugs worth though. Can’t afford the big one.
Highly recommended, plus it’s quick. Just boil the water, pour it in the flask, stir, wait ten min, then push it down and pour. Very good.
Coffee IS therapeutic. No sugar though, I use a shot of chocolate rice or almond or soy milk.
I think you're ready for the next big step...
But....
LOL
Coffee is guaranteed to put me in a good mood! Just brew it strong, please. ;)
