Saw this headline and story on the foxnews site:
Aspirin May Lower Risk of Death in Women
the line/claim is repeated in the body of the story as well: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,261367,00.html |

I read the headline a few times and read the story and still didn't get what you were getting at.
Then I started to consider the intention of what was said, and who was saying it, and then it hit me, the interpretation of a dirty young man's mind
(i must be getting old)
ha ha ha. |

You're reading too much into it. What's funny is that women will always have the same risk of dying as men no matter what drug they take.
We all die eventually. |

it's not even a 'woman' thing actually...
It's the 'risk of death' that's idiotic. What risk? It's a certainty. |

| In the Korea Times today the headline read "Quebec Liberals receive mandate". But when you read the article, you find out the Liberals have formed a minority government. My understanding of political mandate means not only a majority, but a large enough one that one might feel you have a true mandate. |
