I don't have nightmares.  Is that healthy?  I mean, I have 
dreams very similar to these, but they don't feel like night-
mares.  

For example, I often dream that I show up to some social 
function buck naked.  Instead of being embarrased, though,
I'm very happy, and so is everybody else, and we all end 
up having sex.

Here's another one:  I show up at a club to see a band, and
I notice that while the band shows potential, the drummer 
sucks rocks.  So I bum rush the stage, lay a rock on the 
drummer, and take his or her place.  We skyrocket to fame
within months.

I was discussing this with my officemate recently. He wants to have
the Mr. Do "game over" music play whenever something really bad
happens to him, like he crashes his car or something. It's so
cheerful, he thinks, that you couldn't get too depressed. Sorta like
musical Prozac, I guess.

I personally want a little box that provides appropriate sound effects
-- audience noises like riotous laughter, applause, oohs and ahhs --
effect noises like breaking glass, rim shots, squealing tires,
explosions, -- animal noises like dogs, cats, chickens.

I want to live my life with a theme song. Bill Cosby originally said
it, but that's what I really want. I want the John Zorn song "Batman"
to be playing every time I drive down the street.

That's what I really want.

I sent two mail messages to nj last week.  nj reported to me that he was

Today, I got messages declaring that the postmaster had problems with a
couple of my mail messages.

I wish I could figure out how to do that reliably.

Funny you should ask.  I have falling dreams fairly often, and I learned
how to control the fear of heights that I experience in the dream when I
look down just before falling.  I used to just drop like a rock and
dread the final impact.  Then I got so I could keep calm during the fall
and absorb some of the shock upon landing.  In recent dreams, I've
gotten to the point where I can control where I land, even changing
direction so I'm flying horizontally instead of dropping.  So does this
have any value in my waking life?  I fucking doubt it, but it's vaguely
interesting, in a dull sort of way.

Once, driving in the car with my family, we passed a health club with
a sign out front that said

                            GRAND OPENING
                            PUBIC WELCOME

We all had to check with each other to make sure that's really what it
said.  This wasn't far from home, and we had nothing better to do that
day than watch baseball on TV, so we got a camera and came back,
within 45 minutes of first having been there.

The sign had been fixed.
