[QUOTE=Mark in Idaho;
I use TV to occupy my mind when I cannot sleep. My brain injury makes it impossible for me to read for pleasure so TV is all that is left. If it wasn't for the cable/satellite channels, I would be in deep trouble. I have even learned that some infomercials can be good for insomnia.

Ok, I know this is off topic..sorta....I know what you mean about reading with a brain injury....it's just so frustrating! I recieved an email a few days ago,,\it has be confused to no end!

I will paste it here for you, & I am hoping you will tell me if you could read it, & if so, how easy or hard was it for you?

This is weird, but interesting!
