Hello again,
I've been expecting you. Welcome back to the # 1 Most Subscribed to blog on the Internet ever (citation needed). Today I feel like delivering on my promise to bring you stupid questions and information that you didn't think you needed to know. So, without further ado;
The Stupid Question:
Why do Humans/ Other creatures Sleep?
The Stupid Answer:
Well, according to this website, http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-02-why-do-we-sleep.html there is no real definite answer. The website goes on to claim that there are many hypotheses to why we sleep. Some scientists have said that during sleep, a human brain is reinforcing new neurological pathways that you have developed during that day. Other scientists say that instead of reinforcing pathways, your brain dumping any unnecessary information. The problem with both of these theories, however, is that things without brains, i.e. plants, microorganisms, have a state that is similar to sleeping. So basically plants and microorganisms are taking a dump on the dumping and reinforcing theories. "But Casey," you cry out, "I thought sleep is a thing that everything does anyway?!?". "False", I say. That website shows us that there are people out there who laugh in the face of sleep, and then when sleep decides to man up, they sock it right in the chin.
So , in conclusion, science doesn't really have a complete answer to why we sleep. This furthers my suspicion that science is a conspiracy made up by the government to protect the Al-Qaeda Extraterrestrials from discovering the truth behind The War Of 1812.
Until we meet again, I'm Casey Myers.
May the Force be with you.

Why do we sleep? The Birth Of A Blog
Hello People of Earth,
This is my first post so be gentle. My name is Casey Myers and I am here to ask my self questions that my wandering mind seems to ask me when I have much more important stuff to do. I also would like to try and brighten up your day with a little humor. I like to think of myself as a 21st. Century Renaissance Man / -3rd Century Aristotle, with much less important and intriguing areas of study, and much less questions about the deep caverns of the human psyche. I guess I would say I'm more along the lines of a Jerry Seinfeld / Bill Nye the Science Guy. ( Somebody please understand that joke and laugh , I'm really trying here.) What I'm trying to say here is, I have less questions about the Quantum Physics of an Electron During Nuclear Fusion, and more questions like the title of this post, Why Do We Sleep? That's not to say I am uninterested in such topics as Quantum Physics, I just feel that some knowledge in many areas is better than a lot of knowledge in fewer areas. In gathering this knowledge of many subjects my brain seems to ask seemingly unrelated and quirky questions like; What is the point of silent letters?(seriously, what is it?), Why is Sleeping a thing? and ;When did I finish my beer? Seriously, I drank it that fast?I'm going to grab another one...? OK, those last couple weren't real questions, (just a sad, failed attempts at humor), but I think you get the premise. Basically, i made this blog because my stupid brain keeps asking dumb questions all the time, and its up to me to find those answers and keep my stupid brain happy. Also, to make you feel pity for me in my sad bids at comedy writing. Who knows, maybe if I'm terrible enough, I might get a job as a writer for ABC's New Fall Lineup.
Much Love Homies,
Casey Myers
