- Hi,
-
- I've been lurking around for a while but the stuff about trying to talk
- in a dream lured me out.
-
- About, I don't know, mayby 10 years ago I had a dream that I was giving
- an acceptance speech of some sort. Somehow I come to understand that
- the crowd was going to get hostile if I didn't thank them. So, being
- afraid of such a conflict, I said, "Thank you.", but naturally no one,
- myself included, could hear me. I thought the microphone had died, so
- I kept saying louder and louder, "THANK YOU!" Suddenly, I woke up because
- I heard something, and the something was me shouting, "Thank you!"
- It has never happened since then, and I still think it was bizarre.
-
- Oh, and to the mad martial arts, sword carrying, gun toting dreamer:
- I'm not a violent person, but off the top of my head, so far, in
- dreams I've:
- stabbed to death an attempted rapist
- beaten an insurance salesman with a baseball bat, and
- beaten someone to death with a flourescent light tube
- (that last one is my favorite)
-
- For you insurance salesmen out there, the one in the dream was demolishing
- my mother's house with a large, destructive bulldozer . . . while we were
- in it. He was 'punishing' my mother for not buying insurance from him.
- Once he had a BIG hole made in the side of the house he came in to get her,
- and you know the rest. Don't mess with my mom, it makes me angry!
-
- (I don't remember what the guy who got it with the light tube had done.
- I'm sure it was awful ;)
-
- Well, enough for now.
