Maybe they're saying that if you take Rozerem, you'll dream about weird, unfathomable things.

It's all about honesty: Abe Lincoln and Leave it to Beaver. Go back and look at that beaver again. He looks like Beaver Cleaver, including the puffy jowels.

Yeah but why is he dreaming about a Beaver and Abe
It's a metaphor for the inscrutible meaning of most dreams. Somebody, somewhere, out there in world, has probably had a deam involving those two characters, and has no idea what it meant.

I had a dream last night of skiing at a resort where most of the snow had melted. But I know what that was all about.

I was given Ambien in the hospital when I broke my leg and back... it was horrible stuff, had some of the most terrifying dreams I've ever had, like dreams where I did not know who I was, couldn't name one friend, didn't know what I looked like or where I was a robot in a parts bin waiting to be recycled and I had to escape.


best sleep aid I've ever had is Zinc Magnesium Asperate (somtimes marketed as ZMA) helps you get a real deep sleep and is suppose to replenish magnesium and zinc to increase testosterone production by 20-30%. great stuff!

think back to college everyone. He is trying to read into the characters

what the sleep pill advertiser were thinking these character symbolize?

I do think the honest abe and leave it to beaver are a good assumption.

We are analyzing a comercial it makes me laugh

we should all analyze some james joyce next

Just click on the link. What does Abe and the Beaver have to do with insomnia. I was guessing that the beaver meant the "BEAVER" but what does Abe have to do with it. And why the heck is the clock at 9:25?

Help a brotha out.
I don't know, but LOL @ this:

Under sleep hygeine section on the website:

"Use the bed only for sleep and sex; keep the bedroom free from distractions like television, computers, and work"
