Insomniac Helmet US Patent 5,180,986* Issued / 1992 Let's start our insomniac-tic journey with a quote from the inventor. "Head massage for relaxation is very old. Primitive man, lacking implements, used the palms of the hands for head massage and fingers to comb the hair. Head massage and grooming are practiced by all peoples and also by all animals related to man, such as the baboons who spend much time grooming one another's heads to remove insects and dirt. Head massage is used by parents to sooth and reward their children; the related act of head patting indicates approval or affection to children and adults both." But…"Most insomniacs, however, do not have access to nightly head massage by another person". And therein lies the rub. Thus, the inventor invented the Insomniac Helmet, where an endless belt embedded with soft rubbery fingers stroke your head from front to back while it's little electric motor purrs you to sleep. So next time you run out of sheep to count, strap on the ingenious Insomniac Helmet and be prepared to have a very bad hair day. Now go ahead, go to sleep. Forget about that thing on your head, goodnight.
