“Research”:http://www.newscientist.com/channel/being-human/mg18625011.900 on the effects certain drugs, diet and aging have on our brains and how to ameliorate the _damage_. As an aging Gen-Xer, I can already tell I’m no longer the sharpest tack in the toolshed (if ever), so the food guidelines are somewhat interesting. Although I don’t think I can handle an English breakfast of beans on toast everyday. [ "via":http://www.mindhacks.com ]
UPDATE: Oh for fuck’s sake: what the hell does “sharpest tack in the toolshed” mean? I obviously mixed my metaphors there ( _sharp as a tack_ vs. _sharpest tool in the shed_ ). In other words this post is Q.E.D.
