the outside world invades my dreams...

I remember in psychology class in high school hearing about cases where people who lived near railroad tracks sometimes had common visions of trains in their dreams...

well, this morning, I had dreams involving watching a lightning storm from a distance, getting closer and closer. finally, when it reach the point where we would have felt the rain...

...i woke up to a 2-inch/hour rainstorm pummelling the house outside.

go fig.

Go into any inner city neighborhood, and folks will tell you that government alone can't teach our kids to learn. They know that parents have to parent, that children can't achieve unless we raise their expectations and turn off the television sets and eradicate the slander that says a black youth with a book is acting white. They know those things. -- Barack Obama, 7/27/04

funniest dilbert in a LONG time...

I wonder if it will last as long as the buttered-cat array...

I really hate the newswires...

...and how they're already putting up reviews of Edwards' speech 2 hours before he's even gotten to the podium. this whole idea that its not even good enough to be "in the moment", but that to stay on top economically, one has to be hours *ahead* of the moment.

i don't know, just seems to ruin it all IMHO...

we're not that far away from some network making deals with terrorists to get exclusive coverage before it happens, a-la Max Headroom...
