If Daisy, Benjamin Button's life time love, had only known that she, too, could go to sleep old and wake up younger, she and Benjamin may have had a different end to their love story.

It's all in the bedding it seems. The comforter, pillow and sheets are the panacea for aging. At least, that's what the latest industry claims are, well, claiming.

There seems to be an irony here. Agree?
