Long dark night of dextromethorphan dreams...

They all took place in this quaint little downtown, about the size and character of the one in Athens, GA or Lafayette, IN.

There was a murder mystery. I had a cool apartment in a neat old building with a used bookstore off the marble lobby. I had a nice balcony with lush potted plants, which should have been one clue that it was a dream.

The imaginary town must have been somewhere in northern Indiana, because it was flat, and the people on the city bus in the dream looked appalled as Gunsmith Bob loudly explained that the only reason Notre Dame was undefeated was that they played half their games against the Little Sisters of the Poor and assorted other Pop Warner squads, instead of in the SEC, where the real football teams are.

That was no dream, that was your telephone conversation with Gunsmith Bob.

Did Bob explain what nexus does Notre Dame have to the JFK assassination?

Ease up on the lean, girl.

Thanks for acknowledging the SEC.

It is the toughest league in the land.

My beloved alma mater didn't win a single game in it this year.

I too had a night of "DM" (not going to even try to copy/paste, much less spell) dreams...

Picture yourself in "Lost", and every time people start planning or organizing themselves, someone ends up with an iron spike running from an exit just above the brainstem and down through to the ground.

Finally figured out it was when people started making plans based on ideology, instead of immediate need or gratification. THAT was disconcerting. Sure wish I knew what my subconscious was trying to tell me.

Funny, my dreams last night included a brief apperance of you. Well, not you in the first person sense but rather it was an article I was reading online (but not a blog post) written by you and it was extolling the virtues of waking at 3AM each morning to Get Things Done and it's importance in leading a healthy long life. Quite where that came from out of my subconcious I have no idea.

Last night I dreamed I was a succubus and spent the whole time trying to tempt Adam Savage into buying me exotic weapons.

Gee, I wonder what that means...

1: "Armageddon" as related in Revelations won't happen in the middle east. It will happen in the parking lot of a game between Notre Dame and the University of Alabama.

2: Alka-Seltzer Plus Cold - the fizzy kind. Trust me on this...my daughter calls it "The Hammer of the Gods." No fever dreams either.

Who needs illegal drugs when the over the counter stuff is that good?

Re: SEC
Florida has six professional football teams.
Dolphins, Buccaneers, Jaguars, Hurricanes, Seminoles and Gators.

Well, in the south, football is a religion.

As for playing the SEC, you have to be tough to play them, the Securities and Exchange Commission will make the rules up as they go along, same as every other governmental agency.

PAC 12 does as well against other conferences as SEC, but doesn't have as many teams.

Oddly, SEC products don't tend to do so well in the NFL. Work on that guys.

NOT necessarily in that order. There are also several wannabe's in Florida.

Hey Erin, when I shave my head I could easily pass for a Mythbusters stunt double. Mind you, I'm not stupid enough to be one, anything those guys want a double for is way too dangerous....

One of the possible side effects of Dextromethorphan HB is heart arrhythmia. This can turn into a mid 4 figure tab to visit the ER. Ask me how I know...
