Another Dream

i am walking outside a large grocery store/i am discussing St. Patrick's Day plans with a friend/we part ways/he continues walking and i go into the store/inside i see that it has been temporarily converted to a TV studio where a live broadcast is happening/it is Lennon and McCartney circa 1965-66 and they are singing "I've Just Seen A Face" on acoustics/Lennon is singing lead for some reason and he is fucking up badly/McCartney just rolls with it and they manage to finish the tune together/immediately a teenage boy and girl run up to them/the girl hands Paul a large sponge the size of a loaf of bread/they are grinning and expecting some comedy improv/Paul obliges them by waving it over their foreheads like the pope giving a blessing/they laugh and so does the audience/Lennon takes the sponge-pretends it's a ringing telephone-answers it and says"Yes, your Holiness-Right away!"/then he clobbers McCartney with the sponge/audience roars and applauds/the show is over-audience files out-i stay to watch the crew break down the set/an overweight man approaches and hands me a stick of gum/there is no brand name visible because the outside paper wrapper is gone but i know it is Wrigley's Doublemint gum/the last thing the crew does is turn off giant light switches on the wall by swinging toward them on huge swings suspended from the ceiling like the ones in the circus/right before the last one is turned off, the overweight man returns/he says to me and the crew and the empty audience, "One more thing - You all can suck my fucking dick!"/he then unzips and exposes himself/the manager behind bulletproof glass calls out over the intercom, "That's it ! Now, everybody start over now!"/all of the employees return and begin setting up a buffet-style meal featuring whole wheat tortillas/i grab a couple tortillas,begin eating them, and walk away/

Good News and Bad News For The Neo-Cons

GOOD NEWS They got a belligerent, hard-core Europhobe as the next nominee for U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. He will probably be approved by Congress and will be embarassing us for years to come. Congratulations.

BAD NEWS Halliburton gets busted for conducting business inside Iran. According to NBC, Halliburton side-stepped our sanctions against those "evil mullahs" by setting up a subsidiary in The Cayman Islands. It is actually the subsidiary doing business in Iran - not the company itself. Here's the kicker : When NBC asked to speak with compnay spokespersons, they were referred to company HQ in Texas. Nice try, assholes.

You Too Can Be A Dream Interpreter !

Here's an idea: Once in a while I will post a summary of an actual dream I have had. You will then post your analysis in the comments section. Deal?
Here's the first one....

i am watching TV/somewhere unknown/small B&W set/recessed into the wall of a room with the lights out/an elevator to my right opens/my Dad sticks his head out to see what I'm watching/we say nothing/it is a documentary narrated by a father who's son has died/the off-screen narrator(Hispanic) laments all he failed to do & say with son/narrator then comes onscreen and recites poetry while a movie projector shows slow-motion footage of car accidents over him/i am near tears/Dad steps off elevator/goes into kitchen/puts on coat and gathers things including six-pack of beer/He is wasted,sporting a full beard,and looks depressed as hell/there is a homeless and dangerous-looking black woman standing nearby who says nothing and tries to go unnoticed but i notice her/and i know she will rob him once he steps outside/i have to step out the back door a moment/then i realize Dad has left out the front door/i rush back inside/no one there/Dad and woman gone/i rush out the front door/porch light not working/no one in sight/see a mallard duck walking alone under street lamp/it is late fall/hear a wolf-dog approaching from my left/wolf-dog meets a mate/they sniff and play/the mallard avoids them/i notice a fleeing deer to my right who escapes entirely/hooves clacking around side of house and away into the darkness/i turn my attention back to center and realize duck is now a swan that is quaking in fear/he flutters and sqwaks/i worry that the wolf-dogs will notice/

So Much For That...

It was a good concept, poorly executed. Since I don't have a laptop, I have to make notes, then take them home and post them RIGHT AWAY !!! My attention span started drifting around 3:00 A.M. and downhill it went....so...I live to blog another day....
