    “With insomnia, nothing’s real. Everything’s far away. Everything’s a copy of a copy of a copy.” – Fight Club.

    I highly recommend if you can’t sleep, read “Insomnia” by Stephen King. It won’t help you sleep, but it makes a good excuse for not being able to.

    That’s no fun to read if you automatically try to group the words by column.

    Right-most words:

    funk days is the culprit. Everything spiral sleep Not pretty.

    Shakespeare thought the word hedgepig was an insult? What a jerk he was! Hedgepigs are cute!

    Funky-town time will wear itself down. You’ll probably sleep from Tuesday afternoon to Friday morning. We’ll know, if FA and FB go dark!

    I’ve found deep sleep is best achieved with an uncluttered mind.

    Willie could be a bit of a tosser—that’s what came of shaking his spear too much.

    I cured a bad case of insomnia in the mid-90s by reading The English Patient each night.

    Shakespearian insult generator at your service, one of many out there.

    In 1985 I came across a similar tripartate list for generating random TV plots, and wrote code for a program to run on the Wang OIS. A modern version is here.

    Blog: When I was around 3 or 4, my father built a “taxi” for me out of huge wooden blocks. I don’t remember much about it except the thing I loved best – a WitEze fan with rubber blades. How delightful to see a picture of the exact same fan that kept me fascinated for hours (simple minds, you know) and to know that it had a name.

    Gotta get into the rhythm of the spiral, keep it from spiraling down—unless you know how to go down for a nap!
