yep, you guessed it a Sleep apnea episode! Earl says Randy only dies 10 times a night.

who says no one knows about OSA, Earl has it on his list.
someday science will catch up to what I'm saying...

Mention of OSA on Earl

Post by kteague » Fri Apr 13, 2007 2:26 am

Wonder if there's any spike in guest users on the forum after apnea is mentioned on shows like this (especially if it mentioned dying 10 times a night). Gosh, an unscientific study would sure be interesting. Wonder how hard it would be for the moderators to do a data search based on some prior publicity? Ah, I'm probably the only one who would even find it interesting. Seems like spotting a trend could have some value to those in TVland... link topics to advertising, etc. Oh I really need to just go back to sleep!

P.S. Speaking of very unscientific studies, my daughter and her husband sell t-shirts online, and they enjoy watching the trends during election times. Though they always wonder if one candidate's followers are more prone to wearing t-shirts etc., t-shirt sales were reflective of candidate popularity in the last presidential campaign. May have been a fluke.

Kathy,

How could they tell? the last two Presidential elections have been about as close to 50/50 as you can get.

If I remember correctly, your home state of Ohio was what called the election.

Snoredog... when I clicked on this thread I thought you were announcing to the forum that your name was Earl. LOL! ...shows how much TV I watch.
Sincerely,
wading thru the muck of the sleep study/DME/Insurance money pit!
