A look at what Americans do before bed

The article highlights some very interesting trends beyond sleep, but the sleep topic is most interesting to me. Only 6.1% of Americans read before bed. I'm a reader. Katie is a TV watcher, though she does it to fall asleep to. She can't turn her brain off without the noise.

Where I can A) fall asleep almost as soon as my head hits the pillow and B) largely doesn't care about noise, though I prefer silence.

1989 Movies

2/24/2023 9:48 pm | : 1 min.

As a joke tonight I had my wife randomly name a year, to which she responded 1989. I then said we should watch a movie from that year. As it happens, we ended up watching Sharper on AppleTV+. However, now that we are looking at the movies from 1989 I can only be in awe of the movies from that year.

  1. Batman
  2. When Harry Met Sally...
  3. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
  4. Little Mermaid
  5. Dead Poet's Society
  6. Road House
  7. Do the Right Thing
  8. Back to the Future, Part II
  9. The Abyss
  10. Honey, I Shrunk the Kids
  11. Ghostbusters II
  12. Steel Magnolias
  13. Uncle Buck
  14. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
  15. Say Anything
  16. Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventures
  17. Major League
  18. Glory

The list goes on. Literally.

Given the modern era of movies, this seems simply incredible.
