We live in a wonderful age. We are able to find out everything about anything in no time at all because we can Google It!
My newspaper just told me that there is a revolutionary new Sleep Aid now available that is going to bring blessed relief to millions (that’s thousands of thousands) of us who are suffering from Sleep Deprivation.
Are you chomping at the bit to find out what I am talking about?...
Sleeping With a Small Blue Light on Will Aid Us in Getting To Sleep Faster and Allow Us to Enjoy Many Hours of Blessed Relaxing Healthful Deep Sleep
Because of modern information gathering techniques we can find out well researched definitive information about new fanged stuff quickly. We then know the course of action we should follow ... Or do we?
- Google says that some say the Blue Light Technique is a new and increasingly popular bedtime sleep aid that will sooth and relax you into falling asleep fast and stay asleep longer. The light works on the principle of “paradoxical intention”. This means the more you try to stay awake, the sleepier you get.
- Google says that others say the Blue Light Technique triggers the body’s clock into thinking it is morning. Exposure to blue light will actually keep you awake.
In our Google Instant Information World we know the precise path to travel ... Or do we?

Maybe it was better before we had Google. Ah yes, let’s go back to Ye Ole Colonial Communication Days. Back then our Founding Fathers had not yet started to roll around in their graves and information just did not get out ... Or did it?
Before Thomas Jefferson was elected, Ye Ole Colonial Communications told the Folks Back Home that Jefferson was going to confiscate all bibles in the country and burn them.
I just felt your initial reaction to the above colonial word on the street about Jefferson. You just said, “No one would believe that and, if they would believe it, they never would have found out about it because that was BG (Before Google)”.
Not so fast. It appears Ye Ole Newspaper and Ye Ole Word of Mouth worked pretty well. After Jefferson was elected many of the Folks Back Home went to great lengths or hide their bibles (like putting them on a rope and hanging them down their wells) for fear that Federal Troops were coming to gather up their bibles for public burning.
I wonder how they kept their bibles from getting rain soaked while hanging in their wells because Ye Ole Colonial Communications was BZ (Before Zip Lock Bags).
Would I kid u?
