Saw it earlier today.

Maury Mccown (sp?) of RAILhead Design was giving 5/5 starts to this fantastic time-saving app called P-zizz. The advert doesn't explain what the app does but there are a couple of testimonials from different indepdendent software sites praising P-zizz.

Anyone willing to do a Google search to figure out what P-zizz is?

I would prefer my humanity sullied with the tarnish of science rather than the gloss of religion.

I know I could use some help with napping. By the time I doze off, it's an hour later and if I fall asleep- I can't get up if it's longer than 30 minutes... wait... that's not what the thread is about is it...? we're supposed to make fun of RAILhead... never mind

Maury buys more gadgets than almost anyone around. Must have money to burn. At least he is showing pictures of something other than his cat.

Download it and try it. If you read my review, you'll see I use it when I get migraines and it helps me "cool down" form the medication I take for them. Not only that, if you're getting low on energy and need a quick boost for the rest of the evening, a 20 to 30 minute "power nap" works great.

For those making snide comments, how many of you have actually tried it -- as it's meant to be tried -- for a few days? One can't simply download it, play with it for a second, and then pass the legit judgment on it.

Sounds interesting... I'll have to give it a try. Perhaps if I do it after work, I'll have a little more energy from 6-10pm?

That's the idea, yes. Of course, it will take a few uses to get your brain used to the process, but after about 3 or 4 good "sessions", you'll fall right into the sleep patterns.

With the software version, you can control volume levels for the words and music, and after several hundred uses, I find that the voice set to 40% works good for me. I'm a horribly light sleeper, and that voice level is just enough to not wake me. And again -- it take s a few serious uses to really get the full effect, so stick with it.

If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer them, too.

I'll vouch for Maury's claims; it's quite soothing and makes for a good power nap IF you are focused on not sleeping past the designated time.

Why do I look at that emoticon, I think of Zimphire and APU.

The all-important question however, remains unanswered - who's on top?

Zimphire once told me through PM that his bum hurt all the time and that is why he is perpetually bitchy. Perhaps that has something to do with it.
