    Who says coffee is not good for you? There’s a lot of benefits including reduced cancer risk supposedly. Lots of studies on it.

    As for it not getting me drunk… why would I want that? Alcoholism runs in my immediate family, and while I will drink a bourbon on rare occasions, I’m not really much for alcohol. Don’t like it generally, and don’t enjoy being drunk.

    With regard to drinking and enjoying coffee, I don’t have blood pressure issues and my resting heart rate can get into the low 60s if I’m not doing much, even when caffeinated. Coffee keeps me going, tastes good, and nothing better than a hot drink. I don’t drink soda or anything really besides water, tea (black teas and herbal), and coffee.
