As Janet has mentioned (in her comment on My Lenten Disciplines), nothing sends me to sleep faster than staring at the television set: broadcast show, DVD movie, or even a Teaching Company lecture that I'm particularly interested in seeing, it matters not. There's something about the experience that triggers the sleep reflex in me. Oddly, it's a particularly pleasant sleep, too—perhaps it hearkens back to childhood days of drifting off to the incomprehensible yet comforting sound of adult voices. Thus I couldn't help noticing when two consecutive comics (Baldo and Hi and Lois) in my morning routine hit that nerve.
