Dear Fister,

Allow me to suggest some further wake up methods. I have used these successfully, albeit short-term.

Have you ever noticed how people's eyeballs move under the eyelid when they are sleeping? It can be amusing to try and "catch" the moving eyeball.

Licking closed eyelids can also provoke interesting responses.

I do agree with you that the whisker tickle is an all time classic!

Merry Christmas Mr. Fister!

Edwina
