About The National Sleep Foundation … sleep is nothing to sneeze at!
Our puritan society denigrates and devalues sleep, branding it as sloth. Adolescents in particular require extra sleep at this important time in their lives, made all the more difficult by schools that open at the crack of dawn.
Far from being a sign of indolence, sleep is essential for both physical and mental health … and a society that prioritizes “productivity” over such an essential requirement of life is misdirected and dysfunctional at its core.
I don’t mean to give you a hard time about what was basically a throwaway remark, but inadequate sleep time is a genuine problem that’s endemic in our society … ask any intern!
Ed, Thanks for sharing 'the floor' with Paul's thoughts. Well said. Ole Andy Rooney was also my favorite curmudgeon. A man of common sense who's simple comments on life were so well received. We need more common sense in our lives. I wish you all a very merry holiday season filled with as much common sense as one may hold. JC Yuill
Christmas, with Santa for the children the greetings of love and friendship and the glowing lights that warm our hearts is what I love about Christmas. The Churches glow with its religious reminders that give us strength
I appreciate your comment and hoped that Andy Rooney ‘s quote would be taken in jest. After all he is the premiere comugeon. However, no intent to denigrate anyone was intended and for that I apologize. Thank you for your input. Maybe yours and my remarks will have an effect in bringing the issue to the forefront.
Of those three entertaining acts, the only one I ever heard of is Arianna Grande, only
because I still occasionally watch SNL. I used to sneak it late at night in my bedroom on
my little black and white TV ( didn't want Dad to know) when I was around 15. Now my
wife and I look at each other confused at most of the jokes. Not surprising, I guess, I still
love the Beatles and Stones!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours, Ed! It's certainly going to be an interesting 4 years.
Tom, I had not heard of any of these performers. I'm still listening to the '40s channel
Merry Christmas
