Preventive Health Care Update [Mark Steyn]
Given the president's claims about the cost savings of preventive care, I do hope he will consider acting on the results of this research and instituting a mandatory program:
A study by German scientists showed that 10 minutes a day of ogling womens breasts by men was as good at warding off heart disease, high blood pressure and stress as 30 minutes of aerobic exercise.
By the way, this wasn't just some nickel'n'dime, fly-by-night survey. Two hundred men participated in this survey, for five years. Which is a lot of breasts. Or a lot of work-outs, if you drew the short straw.
Weatherby found that a mere 10-minutes of staring at well-endowed females is roughly the equivalent of a 30-minute aerobics workout, because sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves circulation...She added:
Our study indicates that engaging in this activity a few minutes daily cuts the risk of a stroke and a heart attack in half. We believe that by doing so consistently, the average man can extend his life four to five years.
Now that's affordable health care.

I wonder if the risk of having a massive heart attack while engaging in this... "ogling"... activity is as high as it is when doing 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, for men in the.... say..... 67 to 70 age brackett?
Better be careful, MG..... You, too, Seamus!
Yeah, I know.... what a way to go, eh? |

| This, no doubt, explains the lack of heart disease among the French. It's not the red wine after all! |

Me??? A Smart A**???? Why, how could you possibly say that, MG? 
In answer to your Ted question... the study didn't say anything about preventing brain tumors.

| At my age, ogling IS an aerobic exercise....... |
