Back to the asprin issue - I don't care too much about it, because I don't take it, but I do recall reading something in Men's Health along the lines of this not too long ago...

Asprin therapy does thin your blood, decreasing your risk of a heart attack. However, a study showed that stopping asprin therapy can have a rebound affect - making your blood even thicker than it was before you started taking the asprin. In turn, increasing your risk.

Now my take on this is, I don't think any of you guys are old enough to be thinking about an asprin regimine. That's for really old farts at risk of a heart attack. But if the above statement is true, you could be putting yourself at even greater risk for a heart attack later in life, by taking asprin on a regular basis at a young age.
Feel free to do some research on this... I would, but I don't really care that much cuz I don't take it.
