Denis Lehane: To succeed in farming, sleep less

What have you given up for Lent? Probably the drink, or running after women? Well, I’ve given up the bed, and I couldn’t be happier.

I believe it could be the smartest move a fellow ever made. I mean, what’s all this sleeping about?

A fellow gets up in the morning, and no matter how big, bright or bold he is, in a little over 10 hours, he’s back, all anxious to get under the duvet, the way a baby can be anxious for the bottle.
