Cheers, Everyone! You should always walk in the sunshine of your fine selves! As for the start of 2010, may I suggest Deism and Scientology, with or without expensive auditing, for the meaningful life!

I heartily recommend headwounds.

Not just one good thing, many, and in a fundamental way.

In the past it was not unusual for me to sleep 16 hours of the day and do nothing with the remainder, I am now sleeping 5 hours a night and finding it hard to cram everything I want to into my waking hours.

If anything comes of this, I will let you know

Now you are close to Mrs. Thatcher. I read once that she slept only four hours during her time as PM.

According to the Chinese too much sleep destroys the chi or ki (= life energy).

On the other hand Einstein slept about 12 hours every day.
