If you are tired enough you can sleep under almost any situation.

Take my son Joshua, for example. I went to tuck him in one night, and found him laying in bed with a 2×4 board on top of him. It was no small board either. The thing was almost 5 feet long.

“Whose 2×4 is that?” I asked.

“What 2×4?” he replied.

“The one on top of you,” I said.

“I don’t know,” he yawned as he drifted off to sleep. I kissed him goodnight, and left the 2×4 on him, thinking that the next day he would say to himself, “Wow, I slept with a 2×4 on top of me last night!”

The next night I went to tuck him in and say good night, and what did I find? He was almost asleep with that same 2×4 laying on top of him.

“Why do you still have that 2×4 laying on top of you?” I asked.

“Is there a 2×4 still on top of me?” he replied as he drifted off to sleep.

I guess if you are tired enough, you can sleep under ANY situation. That is if you are a kid…and you haven’t had an 18 hour layover in Istanbul, Turkey.
