Dear me. The anchovy tarts. I'd forgotten all about them. So very glad you reminded me [shudder].

That time I'd agreed to do your windows in exchange for lunch on the gazebo...the little hand scripted menu said escargots, but then out come these...errr...creations whose emanation could most generously be described as "pungent." And you told me you'd run out of the little gastropods and couldn't even find any clinging to the azaleas.

Way too salty.

I had my last dream all written down for you Penni and it met this squid everyone talks about. Man that makes me mad. I spent like an hour on it. How stupid can I get.

But your 7 ft tall thing reminded me of it. Cliff Notes say that it was about me painting my car in a downtown Portland parking space, or the - no, it was the loose metal top of someone else's car, and I got trapped and distracted for like hours cleaning up the green paint that was getting on MY car ~ but anyway, I turned around and a giant guy was coming down the street in like a circus parade of white elephants. Yah, white. One was definitely powdered ( I check the details, which is why I hate it when someone is doing something wrong, and I have to stop and do it right. I end up spending my whole night fixing sheetrock.) Uhm but the other elephant really was white, like an albino. I thought that made sense, because an albino elephant would probably wind up in a circus. It was a long dream, and I have written it out entertaining-ly, I think, but at the end there that elephant fell in a big hole excavated for a skyscraper's foundation and broke his leg. It was sad. I got so upset I woke up.

Cheery today, aren't I. But you guys are all on a roll today and that's nice.

What do they call the theory(s) that dreams mean something symbolically? (Besides stupid.)

To hell with Tarantino, I say put those things down on FinalDraft and submit them to an agent. Better yet, children's books.

Now don't laugh. We have a book here called "The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Stories" (that's Mr. Stinky Cheese Man on my profile page) and young Master Luke loves the stories.

The Stinky Cheese Man keeps saying, "Run run run, as fast as you can, you can't catch me, I'm the Stinky Cheese Man!" But nobody will chase him, because he stinks.

As a side note, I'm wondering about that dude that went to the movies anticipating Very Big Trouble.

"I'm takin' my pistola, just in case somebody starts yappin"..."

Seems like he might have just stayed at home. That's what I would have done I think. Or at the very least, notify the management that he didn't want any Very Big Trouble.

I used to be a motion picture machine operator (that's what they call 'em in the union). If I were running the movie and heard that blast, I would have freaked. Transformer blew up or something.

One time I was showing a movie called "Vanishing Point". Long time ago. There is a part of the movie where there the movie "stops" and the film gets "caught in the projector" and "burns up". It's part of the movie. Let me tell you, if you are a projectionist and you see that, you sit up real straight, then you jump up real fast. I saw it. Then I looked at the machine...running fine...no problem...what the #^@$%#$%???????

Good thing I was loaded.
