Sleepy

I'm just now waking up properly. I was in bed by 8:00 pm last night and was instantly asleep. My alarm went of at 5:00 am, which should have been PLENTY of sleep, but it wasn't so I turned it off. I finally woke up at 10:00. That's 14 hours of sleep. I knew I was a bit overtired and out-of-it yesterday, but I hadn't realized how bad. Its taken the last two hours for my brain to really start working.

Huh?

I slept for 14 hours last night. I've only been awake for 3.5. Being this sleepy is, is ... incontheivable!

Ancient Commercials.

Many years ago (late 70's, I think) I remember that Levi Straus was running a number of animated TV ads for their jeans. Some of them even involved a 7' tall (or so) alien (that I seem to recall looked vaguely like a samurai) that ate jeans. Anyone have any pointers to the cartoons, the characters, etc, anywhere on the internet?

Fief.

The book 'Fief' has been on my want-list forever, but being a small-press item, its hard to get. Its a book about what was like to live in midieval times, from the point-of-view of the lower rungs of society. Now its available at a print-on-demand site, while I can't justify the expense. Hopefully it'll still be there when I have some money.
