In our ongoing series on caffeine and how we are all friggin’ addicts, comes a new article from Scientific American regarding the benefits of taking small doses of caffeine rather than the super-jolt we get from a double-mocha-frappuccino first thing in the morning. Turns out that we do better with a 2-oz. shot every hour. Makes sense to me. Now if only they could put it in one of those pneumatic syringes from all the action movies.
I think the best thing about this article is not the actual scientific evidence from some study, etc. But rather that it comes from the journal Sleep. Irony aside, I would have never guessed that a publication would be called simply, Sleep. I wonder what the editorial content is like - must have to be pretty original to keep the audience, um, awake. Can’t speak for everyone, but when I come home at the end of the day, the last thing I would ever feel like reading is a mag about sleep. Oh whatever.

White Man’s Guide to Minority Scholarships
– 11.54
Well, it makes sense. In this post-Tiger Woods era, everyone is a minority of some kind, and I’m sure there are scholarships out there for everyone.
If you’re a white guy who feels there is no money out there for you, then you’re wrong. Apparently. Came across an interesting article that tells you what to do.
This would have really come in handy if we at twentyhood were still in school. Or if we were white males. I love student loans.
