The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for February 06, 2024

It’s an app that counts sheep for you.

2 naps a day, there’s an RX for that. Gn all.

appy napping!

The nap app didn’t sell very well. It put everyone to sleep.

Some people can fall asleep …and sleep all night.☺️

Since the pandemic, I wake all hours of the night…☹️

I’m with Uncle Ted, I don’t want an app to mess with my nap.

Uncle Ted, my man!

If Brutus took the sofa, they’d be nappy together in spite of the weather.

Uncle Ted must be a retired Preacher or Farmer or both. A cool dude with wisdom. When I was youngster and Church sung Hymn “Bringing in the Sheaves” – I thought they were saying, Bringing in the Sheep, We shall come rejoicing, Bringing in the Sheep. Made sense to me. And actually it’s true. Sheep are the flock and flock are the souls of the Redeemed (Biblical).

On evenings when my mind is unwilling to go into resting mode I put on the “Nothing Much Happens” podcast. No plot to the stories so no resolutions to expect but rather just a gentle story about the doings of a farm or a walk through town. The creator’s voice lulls me to sleep, and I have yet to be awake for an ending to any of the stories.

Cute, Uncle Ted!

I nap almost instantly when I park it on the sofa… it stinks really, since I rather play with my games. :}

I find I can nap in almost any position. Some my best naps are when sitting upright.

I use Melatonin and dihyfenhydramine…

Uncle Ted you are wise and practical .

Got that right Ted. Not everything new is necessarily better. But for all the gadget people, have at it. Remember though. Ads for sleeping aids will magically come your way…..

Attaboy, Uncle Ted……..

Sometimes analog is better than digital.

Ah, so Uncle Ted’s an old crank, too! ☺

Uncle Ted is my soul mate! A Lazy Boy and a bourbon and dreamland awaits!

That app must be pretty boring if it puts you to sleep.

I don’t take naps  It’s just that naps happen!

Great idea uncle Ted. I’m gong to take one as soon as I get home.

“One study shows that napping during the day helps you sleep better at night” continues Uncle Ted…

the developer hoped that the app’d be a sleeper hit…

Naps are wonderful things. According to my adult child, “Mom, all old people take naps.” She’s a medical professional, so she might have a point.

Btw two great puns in a row Chip. Yesterday’s abominable slow man and today’s. Great stuff!
