The aspirin has many theories to it and some believe it works and some believe it isn't needed. On paper, the aspirin should increase thermogenesis which would speed up your metabolism and help in the weight loss. Some people take it because caffeine causes them headaches. Personally, I've done it both ways, and I feel a little more wired with the aspirin (could be just in my head though). I wouldn't suggest a full aspirin though. You can pick up a pack of baby aspirin and pop one with your stack. Either way, the benefits seem marginal at best and many people don't even use it.
As for the cycle question, that is also a hotly debated topic. Some people say that it doesn't matter if you go on or off, and that the effects always remain the same. I've always seen better results going on and off though. I usually go on for 4 weeks and off for 2. The first few days I only stack once, and the last few days the same. I usually only stack twice a day, but I have gone to 3 in the middle of a cycle.
Couple things you may already know. Don't take it after 4pm unless you want to be up half the night. Also, don't overdo it. Start at one a day, and you'll feel a little tingle and some energy. Then move to two when you feel comfortable. When I started, I stacked 3 times a day right off the bat and I just felt agitated, jittery, and downright crappy. Now I can stack 3 times in a day and just feel a little more alert. Lastly, the best time to take it is an hour before a meal.
