Aw man, if someone... or some girl... had a good singing voice and someone came up with the words that would be a good parody like Outsourcing Crew Scheduling to India - YouTube

although, I live near the pool at our neighborhood and I don't know if Ms. Carly Rae Jeppessen... I mean Jepsen... has any other words to that song.

btw, it's great for a swim meet on loud speakers. Sticks in your head. Annoys your wife as you sing it.

Yes you do FTB. It's right below 70.

Thou shalt have a sleepless night of trial and error. I predict you will find the optimum sleep number around 0600.

The best number is calculated by taking 100-(the hours you have until the alarm goes off)x(the wakeup call in local time). All numbers rounded down.

Example - 6 hours of sleep x 5am wakeup call = 30.
100-30 = 70. So your ideal sleep number is 70.

But if you're still tossing an hour later, it's 100-(5x5) = 75, so you have to fumble in the dark to find the controls.

Or just grind one out and it doesn't matter.

The real question is... what is Honey Badger's Sleep Number?

I think you're correct. Not only is it too curvy, it also looks way too short. I'd say a Porsche is a good guess.

You'll never know. What feels good at bedtime sucks an hour later, which sucks an hour later, which sucks an hour later, which................. you get the idea.

Much like most of my dates, it makes a hell of a racket when inflating/deflating

I'd vote for Porsche 911 convertible, but that is one massive custom louver behind the front fender.

This + our aspirations with the USPS leads me to think we should be getting our pay plus FedEx rates. After all we are performing double duty with pax and cargo!
