The New York Times is reporting that bloggers are dying from stress and long hours in front of the computer.
The Times' reporter admits, "To be sure, there is no official diagnosis of death by blogging, and the premature demise of two people obviously does not qualify as an epidemic." That didn't stop him from filing the story, though.
Regardless, impending death is now my excuse for not posting that often.

I read that too! Freaked me out. It makes sense too though if you have all the bad habits with blogging that those people had.

There's an episode of Futurama where a couple of the guys are punished by having to make love to all the amazon women on a remote planet until they die.
Perhaps you could use that as an excuse for why you're not blogging more often.

Did someone get a million dollar grant to come up with that diagnosis? Let me in on the insanity--I could think of asisine studies!!

Two people died and they were bloggers. Hmmm, seems like a logical enough conclusion to me. I just love how MSM misses the point completely.
