    Rest is the best medicine, but I keep the heat low, and crack the passenger window open, or keep the red light on. I listen to Stern on Sirius or some other kind of comedy. Talk on the CB if someone is around and willing to have a conversation. I eat pumpkin seeds and spit the shell out. Without good sleep, non of the above matters.

    I brew my coffee with redbull instead of water and put in caffeine pills instead of sugar packets.

    An old boss of mine told me, years ago, "Stick your tongue out and hit your bottom jaw as hard as you can. That'll wake you up.".
