Exam is round the corner. IRC is at feverish pace. Have a break. Some laughter to de-stress.
On the need to diet, is there any truth as to what kills us? Diet? Lifestyle? Or something insidious? Read on and see what my favourite doctor has to say.

Well... I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.
And remember:
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!"
AND.....For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.
1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
3. The Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans...
5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
CONCLUSION: Eat what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.
