Drink wine and you become a... Vampyre?

I sign on tonight to check my mail and any interesting news today to find this article. Rare Disorder Linked to Werewolf Myth (Porphyria makes you unable to be in the sun with out burning up like a vampire. Although this particular case apparently included weird facial hair growth) All the usual suspects are lined up for sacrifice; smoking, drinking, drugs, stress and sunlight. Well why don't you just add chocolate, garlic bread and pasta and make me completely miserable. Why is it that no one can find a link between exercise and cancer, or eating healthy can kill you! Nope, instead you would rather take away all my favorite vices! I think you could find a link between working out 20 minutes 3 times a week and a shorter life span, you're just not trying hard enough. They say statistics can be made to say anything you want. Well Damn it, someone make them say that I should sit around more often and stuff my face with wine and chocolate!
Well I may become a Vamp or a werewolf, but sunlight, cigarettes and wine I will see you this summer by the pool

I'm sure it wasn't the cool vampire shit either - like living forever, or being able to kill people who desperately need it. Just the burning up thing, right?

Those scientists. What kill-joys. If only they could get laid. Discoveries might be completely different. My theory is that they are working to prove all the stuff the "cool" people do will kill them. Kind of a final flipping the bird to all the ones who made them miserable in high school.

Congrats - I see you got your format fixed :)>
