The original Ping was painfully written in Perl.

Sleeping Minimums

As you may or may not know, we got a new puppy this past weekend. We brought home our little guy Friday night and he proceeded to keep my wife and I awake for, uh, almost all of the night.

All told we got, perhaps, two hours of sleep that night. I was glad that it was a weekend night and not a weekday because I was pretty much a walking zombie yesterday. Made it through, et cetera, but wow. Two hours of sleep ain’t enough – but I did make it through the day.

What’s the least amount of sleep you’ve gotten by on?

On a regular basis, or one time?

I stayed awake for 70 hours once in high school (and promptly crashed for 17 hours of sleep, probably the best sleep I have ever had, except for being starved at the end of it).

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
