Yes, the "Ladies from Hell" protect the furniture from sneezes and other boldily fluids. Drooling when sleeping and such. You know, as undignified as the drool sleep is, it tends to leave you feeling better than the normal sleep.

Some humor links for Mai,

First the ever popular Homestar Runner

http://www.homestarrunner.com/

Next it's The Show with Ze Frank. No longer in production so the political humor is a bit dated but the observational jokes are still gold.

http://www.zefrank.com/theshow/

Ever wanted to be a monkey on a crime spree? Now you can:

http://furious-george.net/?

And in a more academic vein the TV tropes wiki know all the dirty secrets of dramatic structure and they are dishing.
