"To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream"

Mmm...sleep...dreams...I think I hear my pillow calling me, beckoning
me to the realm of the Lord Shaper...Morpheus...the Dream King...

Good night, and sweet slumber.

The records are a-tumbling ...

The fastest ever answer ...

The fastest ever 5 stars ...

And you manage to sleep through it all.

I'd like to bet that you were in bed when Lincoln was assassinated.

You Brits and your weird timezone!  It was very, very late here, and
definitely time for a good snooze!

And Tequila..well, it might be bad for my health, but it's certainly
good for the health of those around me!

How can you go to bed at this time?

By my watch, it's 8.20 a.m. and it's a lovely sunny day.

It's also a HISTORIC DAY because (I think) you have just answered the
shortest question ever posted ... and you've got it right
straightaway.

Have a Tequila on me but please no salt ... Haven't you heard? It's
bad for you.

Kindest regards

THIS is a query.

Said Hamlet to Ophelia, 
I'll do a sketch of thee
What pencil shall I use,
2B or not 2B?

(Spike Milligan)

good 2B pencil or not?

Let's not forget the immortal words of the hippie Hamlet:

"Doobie or not doobie?
 That is the... um... uh... the rest is silence."
