eventually, i’ll get back to some more serious postings….
i’ve had a brookstone gift certificate for more than two years now. at the two year mark i started losing $2.00 per month off of the card. finally, two weeks ago, c.c. convinced me to go in and spend it before i lost any more credit.
i bought an electronic sudoku game, which i used quite a bit on our vacation last week.
after that purchase, i still had a few dollars credit. i couldn’t get it back in cash (i asked). so i picked up the brookstone “silent snooz”. it’s this rubber nose-ring-looking contraption that is supposed to open up your airways and keep you from snoring.
the idea is simple. silent snooz will pinch your nose causing no small amount of discomfort. the discomfort will keep you awake. staying awake will prevent you from snoring.
why didn’t i think of this?

I’m fascinated by this.
Why is it recommended for only 30 days of use if it’s washable and made of medical grade plastic? Have you found that the evening activity and content of your noise to begin a deteriorating process of the Silent Snooz?
Did you get yours in Mentholated Eucalyptus scent, and if so how was that?
Also I see how the Silent Snooz is unisex. Otherwise wouldn’t be embarrassing to be caught wearing a woman’s Silent Snooz?

trevor, i’m glad you share my fascination. actually, to be honest, in reality, i ceased ever to think of the silent snooz again as soon as i pressed “publish” on this post. a side note: did i just introduce a sentence with three different introductory phrases?
