I was taking a shortcut through the education       building on campus and the hallway from one door to the other had an outside       wall on one side (it really does) and offices with big plate windows on the       other (not quite right).        So my dream self looks into the offices as I walk by and there are pigs in       them. Office furniture and pigs. And a sow and piglets and I look closer and       a boar, too. And the boar is doing something so I look closer and it's       chewing on a person.        People all over are just walking by. So I grab a young man and bodily pull       him into the room and shout at him to pull the person out while I yell and       shout and wave my arms to scare the boar (turns out they were potbelly sized)       away from the person. So        the chewed on person/body gets pulled out and I look up and a school teacher       with a field trip of 2nd graders is coming in the other end of the room, so I       scream at her to get the kids out until she gives me a dirty look (like I'm       the crazy person) and        leaves. I go out into the hall to find that no one called help for the chewed       person, and I look down and find out it's my youngest child (a teenager) and I       say "wake up" and she stands up and a chunk of her arm is hanging there and       she says, I'm fine,        just a scratch... and then it got weird... something involving my petrology       profs, canyons, and directional mines (explosives, not holes in the ground.)                     That is what I tried to say about university system.                     Once I had a dream, it was a pretty much complete story, and it seemed like a       really good idea, and I was excited. Two weeks later I saw a movie named The       Truman Show, involving Jon Carrey. It was almost identical.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
