Trouble Sleeping?

Some researchers say that the iPad and laptops may alter sleep cycles, fooling your brain into thinking it’s daytime. Alon Avidan of the Sleep Disorders Center at UCLA said that people should just take a boring, old-fashioned book and read by a lamp. I think that’s a good idea… and might I suggest that Math Jokes 4 Mathy Folks be your book of choice?

Okay, that was a shameless plug. Then again, I’ve never claimed to be above that.

For tolerating that shameless self-promotion, you’ve earned the right to read a few math jokes about books and sleeping…

Why was the math book sad? Because it had so many problems.

Some mathematicians have become so tense recently — many of them are no longer able to sleep during seminars. 

A math professor is a person who talks in someone else’s sleep.

My apologies if that last one hits a little close to home…
