A new study suggests that if you take at least a 45-minute nap every day, you could improve your memory.

A few days ago, I had a terrible, horrific dream. In it, my 9-year-old son was badly injured. I thought he was dead at first. Without going into graphic detail of what was a very vivid, realistic image in my mind, I awoke just as my boy began to open his eyes. It stuck with me all weekend.  It's still with me right now.  It scared the hell out of me.

In an incident that’s sure to rattle your faith in emergency services, a 911 dispatcher in Maryland nodded off and started snoring after taking a panicked call from a woman whose husband had stopped breathing. Yeesh. Not a great time to fall asleep on the job, guy.

Mom gets a text about putting a necktie on your duck. The guy who sits across from you at work gets a text about a clown made of marshmallows. Your ex-girlfriend gets a text about that one time when you saw Osama Bin Laden at Best Buy playing ‘Mario Kart.’ All of those texts can now easily be explained by the newest bedtime nuisance, sleep texting.
