I've been having trouble sleeping. I'd expect it would be work, or concern over health issues of my family, or maybe money, because these are on my waking mind. And as they say, infected minds to their deaf pillows speak.*
So last night I'm trying to sleep, but one thing keeps nagging me, and I can't seem to shut off my mind to rest. At some point during the tossing and turning it strikes me that my sister might know the answer, but if I called her in the middle of the night to ask, she'd kill me. And she'd be completely justified.
The question that was bugging me?
Was Roscoe married to Boss Hogg's sister, or was Boss Hogg married to Roscoe's sister?
*Technically: "...infected minds/ To their deaf pillows will discharge their secrets" (Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 1)
