Normally, a person burns about 0.42 calories for every pound each hour of sleep. For instance, a 150 lb. person burns about 63 calories in one hour, whilst sleeping.
Meaning that, in terms of energy used, it comes in just above the energy used in swimming for an hour. But 25% more than playing golf(walking and carrying your clubs) for an hour.
Give you something to sleep on.

We changed to decimal currency in 1971 but in 1982 my parents went on holiday in Suffolk and the local shop in the village still had stuff in the window priced in Pounds, Shillings and Pence. Eleven years and they still hadn't caught up

I read an article yesterday claiming that the more attractive a man is to a woman,* the smaller his testicles are! How the hell does that work?
* And apparently any male primate to a female primate, presumably of the same species.

Hmm, I read an article that said testes size in Northern European males was shrinking by 20% per generation since the Industrial Revolution. Must be getting more attractive.

@Markymark Is said to have the smallest testicles in Christendom.
They're all a good size thanks. One is slightly bigger than the other two though.

The Thymus which produces immune T cells shrinks from your 20s. Many diseases are down to reduced immune function not aging. Regular lifelong exercise can preserve the Thymus at its size from when you were in your 20s.
