quote of the day

Quote of the Day  ©BrummetMedia.ca " I now know that there is more refreshment  and stimulation in a nap,  even of the briefest,  than in all the alcohol ever distilled.  If he who sleeps, dines,  he who naps, nips;  but he nips the true Hippocras, the real elixir...  The friend of humanity  who should confer sleep upon the sleepless  would be perhaps the truest friend of all.
