As I get older, I find I have fewer & fewer dreams at night.
Or I just don't remember them when I wake.

Do we dream less when we get older,
or do we lose the dreams like we lose car keys?

All things one has forgotten scream for help in dreams.

I guess forgotten things are screwed if you don't remember your dreams.

re: #2 Pawn of the Oppressor

There's another Elias Canetti quote that relates to that story:
"Justice requires that everyone should have enough to eat. But it also requires that everyone should contribute to the production of food."

Remember my report called Racist Literature Distributed in Berkeley from a year and a half ago? Well, waaaayyyyyy after the fact, someone finally tracked down the exact cartoon that was being distributed in Berkeley that day. I posted it in the report just now in an update, with the caption,

[UPDATE:] zombietime reader Paul G. finally located this orginal version of the flyer shown in the TV report. This is what the color version of it looks like. I'll let you decide if it's anti-Semitic or not.

It only confirms my thesis (spelled out in the second half of the report) that left-wing hate and right-wing hate have become indistinguishable!

I once dreamt about the solution to the world's energy crisis. It involved lightening and batteries. I promptly forgot the details.

Even in our sleep,
pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart,
until, in our own despair, against our will,
comes wisdom through the awful grace of God

Open thread. Are any of you as nauseated about Obama's Magical mis-speaking tour as I am. He's said so many insane things I can't believe anyone could possibly vote for him. Unfortunately Americans are part of the non- reality show, reality show generation. Be afraid, be very afraid......

Anyone notice over at "The Corner" at NRO, where some are debating the usefulness and/or importance of the Obama Waffle over the surge and PM Maliki's comments? Peter Wehner has the best of it.

No wonder I remain adamantly independent. Sometimes I wonder if Republicans have their heads in the game at all.

Oh, I'm nauseated. I knew this was coming - I knew the Lord High Fellators of our MSM establishment were going to follow him around like a bunch of lost puppies - but it's still sick to watch, even when you know exactly what's coming.

I can't wait for the next time I go over to visit relatives in Germany, when I'll get to hear at parties all about Obama being "ze bleck Che Eff Kay".

...Maybe not, because the election will likely be long gone, but I just don't have the heart to go over to Davids Medienkritik and see what kind of silly shit the Europress is spewing. Not without having a few drinks first.

Never get into buying guns. They're like Lays Potato Chips--you can't have just one.

The Chicago Cubs are getting seriously snake-bit by the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Cubbies seem to have all kinds of problems with their fielding this evening and the D-Backs are having no problems with their hitting.

Oh, now, I didn't say it was crap, either. As I understand it (never fired one); incredibly reliable; high rate of fire; very compact. Just very hard to control.

I have fired an MP5; and I can see why that became the Uzi replacement. It's like you will a certain number of bullets to hit a certain spot.

re: #56 nyc redneck

I really *don't* have scary dreams very often at all (and as explained above, that one was vivid, but not scary). My wife does, sometimes; I have to wake her and talk her back a bit.

I've fired an Uzi and an MP5 once each, and while the Uzi makes a satisfying noise, the '5 is where it's at. I don't own many firearms and I don't really want or need to acquire any more, but if I could have anything for my collection it would be an MP5SD. I dig the nasty little nines.

No, just honest.

When I want to recall, say, junior high, I'll flick on the basement light.

Until then I'll just ignore the thumping.

But the S.O.B. made me chew on a stainless steel dental instrument so I'm hurting more now than I was.The Oral Surgeon, the Dentist and the Endodonist are starting to remind me of the three stooges, only they ain't anywhere NEAR as funny.

OK, so I went over to Davids Medienkritik - stone cold sober (if you don't count being carb-drunk from a pizza dinner) and right on the front page, as usual, David nails it:

Finally: It is particularly striking that so many Europeans proclaim such affection for Obama - without really being able to specifically explain why they like him so much. Simply being the leading anti-Bush is enough to be loved in Europe - yet it is the Americans who are continually accused of harboring a black-and-white view of the rest of the world.

I've fired the MP5, the Thompson, the Uzi, and the Sten, and of the four I shot the best groups with the Uzi. The Uzi was also the easiest to control the trigger timing on to get a nice consistent 3 round burst. It also has the best ergonomics...since the mag well is in the pistol grip it's very quick to change mags as we tend to be able to intuitively sense where our other hand is, if you understand what I am saying. Makes mag changes easier in the dark.

The Sten was the most fun though, but then I saw "The Guns of Navarone" way to many times as a kid.
