Well, I feel weird inside. And my brother is watching Top Gun and for some reason the bass is up... It's annoying 'cause I'm trying to listen to music.

Another sleep typer.
Sleep Problems
It's the middle of the night and everyone in your house is fast asleep. Suddenly, you are jolted out of bed when you hear your child scream. It's probably another nightmare, you think, as you head into his room to console him.
A nightmare is one type of parasomnia. Parasomnia, which means "around sleep," also includes sleepwalking, night terrors, bedwetting, and narcolepsy. All can create havoc in your home, and some can be harmful to your child. Keep reading to learn about the three categories of parasomnia (rhythmic, paroxysmal, and static disorders) and to find out how you can help your child.
Rhythmic Disorders
Rhythmic disorders, such as head-banging, head-rocking, and body-rocking, involve movements that range from mild to seizure-like thrashing. Other rhythmic disorders include shuttling (rocking back and forth on hands and knees) and folding (raising the torso and knees simultaneously).
During the rhythmic movements, the child may moan or hum. These movements seem to occur during the transition between wakefulness and sleep or from one stage of sleep to another.
There is no known cause for this type of disorder, but medical or psychological problems are rarely associated with it. Children who experience rhythmic disorders may have morning headaches, nasal problems, and ear infections.
Another rhythmic disorder is restless legs syndrome (RLS), a sensory and motor abnormality that seems to have a genetic basis. In RLS, the child's legs move repeatedly. Many people who have RLS also have periodic leg movement syndrome (PLMS) - this occurs during sleep when the legs move involuntarily.
Treatment for RLS can include:
- music therapy (rhythmic sounds, such as the ticking of a metronome, may help induce and regulate sleep)
- psychotherapy
- hypnotism
- motion-sickness medications
- tranquilizers
- stimulants
For music therapy, I suggest Tom Jones. The soothing sounds of this crooner shall turn any restless leg syndrome sufferer into Jell-O. Cherry Jell-O, not that icky lime stuff.

Its not a big thing. I have a 65 ford f100 and the brakes went out. so i was fixing it. i was pulling one of the springs off and my pliers sipped, i fell back, hit my the back of my head on the fender and hit my eye with my hand and the pliers. embarrassing. got a pretty good cut and a helluva headache out of it.
Now the Jackie Chan Made-For-Hollywood version:
"I was out drinking with Chris Tucker and 12 strippers, and this guy the size of a 65 Ford F100 started busting my chops about hogging all the bitches in the house. So I asked him if he'd like to step outside and discuss the pros and cons of NAFTA. To which he responded by swinging a pool cue in my direction. I jumped high in the air in slow motion, kicking the pool cue out of his limp American wrist while at the same time letting out a high-pitched scream like a rabid Colobus Monkey. I cracked a joke in Japanese about his pants size, but no one got it. Chris Tucker hit on another stripper to add to our posse, making the total 13. The guy the size of the truck passed out from eating too much celery, and I ordered a double sake. The bartender slid the drink to me old fashioned Western bar-style, but it hit my box of Goobers on the bar, bounced up, and knocked me in the eye, leaving a pretty good cut and a helluva headache."
What a Colobus Monkey sounds like:

I just can't believe I found that picture of Jackie Chan injured across his face AFTER I wrote the damn thing.
My luck just went up 16 points.
