Media Watch: I've been reading about sleep and dreams in a REAL book by Christopher Evans. Some scary, cruel research has shown that lack of sleep causes death, and lack of dreams causes madness. We KNOW that we need to refresh our bodies and minds, but exactly WHY? still seems to be a mystery.


Gustave Dore's engraving about the dream of Jacob (Israel) at Bethel. He also wrestled with an angel, and did pretty well until the cheatin' bastard made him go lame by magic. Goes to show that wrestling was fixed in ancient times too! Thanks to the website which hosted Dore's biblical illustrations, which have been in the public domain for generations -- my fair use of one of them does not constitute any recommendation of the host site's content.
