@wildbill83 very important work!!
@wildbill83 When we were "swinging engines" on the boats in the gulf, we had to stay awake until the new engines were installed. Sometimes up to 80 hours. Even when we were not doing a thing, we weren't allowed to sleep! Some boats had hard ass skippers, and other boats were too much cake! I was on one in Galveston where we did nothing but play video games and eat up a very generous grocery allotment, and a couple in Louisiana that were floating night clubs! I got the crabs without even touching the merchandise!
Crazy shit!!!!!!!!!

@puck61 that's when it gets tough. When you're active/busy all the time, if doesn't bother you and you lose awareness of time, it's when you stop and actually have time to think about it...
@wildbill83 I learned that dreams are an autonomic function. If you do not sleep and dream, you will dream while you are awake! No joke!
