   Two of the more memorable dreams from last night / this morning include:   
      
   Snake in the yard:  Not much before or after on this one, as I became alert at   
   having discovered a snake of significant length in what appeared to be an   
   outdoor yard.  I mean, this snake was LONG.  Not terribly big / thick, pretty   
   much the size of a    
   skinny anaconda, but with a sizable head, and a *LONG* body, roughly the   
   length of a long garden hose.  This snake was so long, it was looped back   
   practically in the shape of a paperclip, but the head was to the left, but the   
   dreamer's pan / perspective /   
    sweep to the right showed the tail near the end, closer to where the   
   dreamer's perspective ended up.   
      
   There was a deep concern to find the head of that snake and do something about   
   it, but the thought of killing it was just barely not there.  Concern, and the   
   desire to alert others of the danger the snake presented, *certainly!*  Dream   
   ended, easily a    
   clarity 7 to 8.   
      
   The second dream involved something to do with a reel-to-reel tape recorder,   
   trying to get sound out of a tape but that tape was more like a rope-chain   
   than a magnetic ribbon-film.  The view ended up as that of a Dell computer,   
   tower / desktop type, and    
   there was a definite sense of troubleshooting the hardware, although there   
   also seemed to be a strong sense for the concern of time, as if someone were   
   under a kind of deadline.  I felt strongly that I could "shoot" the problem   
   rather quickly and close    
   up the lid, as it *seemed* to be a Dell computer, and those are perhaps some   
   of the easiest units to work on.  After all, they were designed to be easy /   
   QUICK to access, both over the phone AND in the field (when a tech had to be   
   dispatched.)  The    
   dreamer got the lid on the case and the dream ended, although I could still   
   hear myself "discussing" the matter with someone as I was coming back to   
   consciousness.   
      
   NOTE:  I sent an email to WKRN this morning *before* typing up these notes,   
   because TWICE now I've heard someone on camera (during the nightly news) use   
   the word "backslash" in a web address, which is totally wrong, so I wrote a   
   letter including    
   screenshots to show the difference between a slash and a backslash.  Hearing   
   it used wrongly on air is worse than fingernails on a chalkboard.
