You worried me for a moment there, DD, when you said you had "decomposed substantially". I really should get my barin to work properly.

The drool started halfway down the page.

Then the floor show. Hurrah!

I caught the bagpiping MacDoougals in the Gorballs a while back, but it didn't hurt too much.

I hope Kipper does that trick.... you know, the one where he predicts exactly who'll laugh first when the major does that amazingly long overcomplicated, rambling (and sometimes mumbled) punchline.

(postpaleo... you've hurt my diaphragm... again.)

Very definitely.

Last Tuesday I posted on here about "Ghoti" and wrongly attributed it to Oscar Wilde. The next morning, someone promptly mentioned Oscar Wilde to me in a completely different context. I don't think I'd heard or spoken his name in years.

If I didn't find obscure coincidences cropping up on a regular basis, I'd get extremely worried. It would prove that there was a conspiracy afoot to stop all the natural, memorable coincidences.

all the time!

I finally recognized Benji from Gestalt's avatar as one of Alex's Droogs from "A Clockwork Orange" today and I heard both Stanley Kubrick and A Clockwork Orange later today as I was flicking through the channels.

I don't know if it just heightens that awareness, or I actually conjure it up like a true magician.

Guess I look at it as random chaos, it doesn't stop, I do.

Reality is what we make it. Sometimes it is easier to change our perceptions than the world, and sometimes the opposite is true.

Once I dreamt of a silver fox. I analyze my dreams but I couldn't figure that out that one. After a few days I was sitting on a bus, thinking I might as well put it aside. And then a huge semi drove past going the other way, with the words "Silver Fox" ten feet high on its side.

Yeah, well so what, humph!! Once I dreamt of 14 pygmys with sandpaper on there little smelly feets. I awoke witha horrible hang over and was sure they had been marching across my tongue. Oh, you just wait, till I tell you how I got even with those little guys.

They were probably the same ones that were on my tongue on Thursday morning. I think it was 14 of them. Now... a plan... 1) keep bubble gum in mouth. 2) spray tongue with WD40 before retiring. That'll teach the b*gg*rs!

Just as I flake out, I've just learned something. I now know just a single word of Klingon. The Klingon word for fish is ghoti.

Yes, thank the good highlanders it's decompressed -- NOT decomposed!

Decompensating was, in all likelihood, the greatest possibility. Howevever, wouldn't have wanted to tested the options.

Think I'll bring in a couple of my hounds to hear MacDougall and see Kip. Took them to a fall festival downtown once. A gaggle of pipers played. Apparently, the frequency resonated the head hound. As soon as the last pipe bladder emitted it's final gasp/fart, yon hound started howling his head off.

Please, though, Dinos, no Spam tonight. Wouldn't want to start a fight with Kipper and have a dogpack break out.

Coincidences: Sometimes they are. Sometimes they're not. Mostly not.

All realities play out at once? Or so Hawking thinks. And a few other semi-smart folks (probably Aspies ).

Anyone have any idea what the LATE floorshow act is?

I am not capable of creative thought at the moment, so choose instead, for our joint effort at lightening the mood here, to share the following link:

Thank you thank you thank you, I had a mental bloc on part the pygmy story.

My last fortune cookie,

"Before the beginning of great brillance, there must be chaos."

OMG! Mike the Headless Chicken.

Aylissa...if this is you not being creative, I can hardly wait to see what comes next!

I think you can be an honorary member. Please come back!
BTW there are great drugs that you can take that cure you of the dreaded insomnia. I have been taking Klonopin to fall asleep for the last 5 years, and my life has improved. My insomnia had been life-long and nightly. My brain would race and do this downward spiral of negative thoughts. Having to not endure this nightly self-abuse has been very positive. I am far from overcoming my depression and anxiety, but at least I'm spared the nightly pain.
