I'm shocked!

Well, that was PC's quote. It looks to be incorrect.
Wikepedia sez My Pillow was founded in 2004.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Pillow

The National Sleep Foundation was around in 2001.

It was founded back in 1990 according to the first paragraph in the
above cite.


I'm repeating what I read on a website, so you may be correct. It
appears that several persons on here like it, and said it sold for $40
(with coupon), not $100. So, I guess it was not liked too much by those
in that website. Unfortunately I did not save the web URL. I only recall
it was a blog sort of site. If I was not in the middle of a home repair
job, I might try to find it again, but not now, cuz I'm just taking a 5
min break.

Personally, I have no interest in it, but they keep showing the
commercial, and just for grins, I googled "National Sleep foundation",
because I was curious what that foundation did, or why such a thing
exists. I guess there is a foundation for darn near everything.

It must be fun working at The National Sleep Foundation, because all
they do is sleep all day at work

Either way, my $7 Walmart pillow works just fine!
