They let us in the right seat for a while, each one, some wanted to stay others touched it and that was it. It was a heavy beast as I recall. That was in 1957, out of Scott AFB Illinois.

If I gotta pee, it's a sign I slept well.<br /><br />There was a stressful period in my early 40's when I tried the pharmaceutical route. Once. That doc had no problem prescribing me something. I night of psychedelic dreams and that stuff got heaved over the backyard fence. Would have heaved the dock too had she been there. (Actually, it went down the disposal, but you get my drift).<br /><br />So, I solved it myself. I take 10mg of Melatonin and 500mg of Tylenol. Some nights I chase them with a half glass of Chardonnay. Works great for me and no side effects.<br /><br />Hang in there, Sarge. Sometimes you just have to outlast the bastids. Folks with stripes on their sleeves are good at that.

Probably an old one, but first time hearing it for me. I know you don't like pharmaceutical help at night, but I function much better during the day with the sleep it offers.
