Peculiar Friday Posting: Did You Yawn?
I'm particularly fascinated with yawning. I did a lot of research on the subject for a fiction piece I wrote in college, and I'm sort of captivated by the fact that there's really no conclusive reason behind why we yawn or why yawning seems to be contagious.
Given my fascination, it's no surprise that I was quite intrigued to stumble upon Emilie's Don't Yawn Game. So far, Emilie has tried to make over 500,000 people yawn...pretty impressive. And not that you probably need any help yawning on a Friday afternoon, but check it out and see if you can exercise self-control over this sleepy girl's game.
Have a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend; I'll see you all on Tuesday!

I didn't yawn, but I couldn't find a way to vote for the poll. No wonder the response rate is under 7%.
