Wow...totally cool ideas Mulan, Belbab and Target. You guys might just be on to something. I've been out of the Borganization for ages and thought I had all that crap worked out of me but I guess some of it is still inside festering and simmering.
Belbab your analysis was very interesting and sounds good to me. I especially like the idea you presented about JFK. Target JFK was the only Pres of the USA I ever respected and cared about. I know he screwed up big time like others but didn't know it back when I was a kid and maybe these are old ideas coming to the top of the dream soup.
I also like your idea about the garden hose representing something I want to cover up...there might be something to that as well.
Running Man and Sky into the spanking room you characters! Sky, there is no sex in this dream cause I'm not gettin any in my dreams either. lol
Other comments anyone?

The dream…
I find myself at an indoor circuit assembly. I have volunteered for helping setup chairs for a special guest speaker, but I haven’t had time yet to look at who the speaker is on the program. I’m just told to get as many folding chairs setup as possible. I’m working for hours, and now I’m hungry and want to stop to eat but I’m told to keep busy setting up chairs for the afternoon public talks. I sneak off anyway to grab some fast food but get caught by the elder who just gives me a disgusted look.
It is now moments away from the speech and the place is packed with people. I have a chair reserved in the front row but when I go up to claim it; one of the Governing Body is sitting in it. I want my blue jacket and silver attaché case back to find a new seat, but he won’t let me have them. He tells me I’m not important. I ask for my jacket back but he won’t move but I try to get my attaché case from under his seat and he struggles with me and it spills open. Just then the new speaker is announced and it is John F. Kennedy. Everyone is excited, but I said, “He can’t be speaking as he is dead.” People just look at me like I’m totally stupid and tell me that I don’t know what I’m talking about.
In anger, I leave and I’m going out to the parking lot to get my vehicle, I discover it is a large white sewage truck, and it is being stolen as I watch. I chase after them, and I see it is the same Governing Body guy and someone else in the cab laughing at me and driving away.
I’m really angry now, this was the last straw and I need to chase after them to get the license number to report them to the police but I need a vehicle. The only other person I see in the parking lot is a black guy in a white sports car who tells me to get in and drive and chase after them.
I’m doing incredibly risky driving at high speeds through the city, driving through lights, and scaring this guy at times, but he smiles at other times and tells me to find them. I spot the truck ahead and speed up but they have spotted me and step on the gas. I’m now chasing them down a narrow country road and they begin to dump the sewage tank in the back and the awful waste is slowing me down but something goes wrong in the process of them dumping the truck, and dangerous amounts of gas build up and eventually the tank ruptures, catches fire, and the whole truck explodes, killing the drivers.
I don’t want to think about this any more and I’m driving back the country road and see a very long green garden hose that is partly buried alongside the road but it should be completely buried and it is very urgent to take care of this but I need to get out of there before the cops come to clean up the mess from the truck.
Okay, so what do you think?

Going Down Without Guilt.
by Englishman inlots of posts lately about oral sex.
natural or perverted?
normal or disgusting stuff?
-

Mindchild
It is also very much a cultural thing too. I've read sociological studies about oral sex in different regions of the USA, and while there are a lot of people who relocate all around the country, there are clear patterns of group behavior of what is culturally acceptable. For instance, in Utah, where the Mormon population is quite large, it is a big no-no and the same for many Bible belt states. In California though, it might be as common as brushing your teeth (well maybe this is an overstatement) but it is much more prevailent in liberally minded areas.
Don't know what things are like in the UK but Aussies know how to have a good time and of course the Eastern cultures are way ahead of many others in their pursuit of sexual enjoyment.

Fear and pain and death...
by Cowboy indo you fear death?if so,do you fear it because of the pain that is likely to go along with it?or because of what will become of your soul(your self)after death?.
curiosly,i find that i no longer fear death.not that i want to die-i don't.but i wonder if this how i should feel.. i don't like pain,but i have a fairly high threshold of pain,i think.i'm sure there is much greater pain than what i have experienced,but though i avoid it when at all possible(including spankings...sorry chat babes),i'm not afraid that i can't deal with it if i have to.. likewise death,i just have no great fear of it anymore.i don't think that it's due to my beliefs about what will happen after i die...i don't have any.sure,i was raised a j.w.,instilled from birth with the idea that if i didn't survive armageddon,that i'd be resurrected thereafter.but i don't buy that anymore...neccesarily.nor do i believe in the heaven or hell concept...neccesarily.i do believe that if i'm the best kind of person i can be,then it will have to be good enough for whatever,if anything,lies beyond the life i'm living now.. in talking to others,though,i find very few(if any)people who don't have a pretty high degree of fear about death.it has me wondering,and i'd appreciate your comments.. cowboy.
we ride and never worry about the fall.

Hey Cowboy, interesting thread.
I don't fear the pain of death, but I fear the great dissappointment that I will miss out on the chance for immortality. I'm an Extropian and think there is a chance that within the next 10-20 years that our lifespans will actually double to about 150 years, and that within 100 years that we will have immortality by means of replicating the total information pattern that makes us...us. We can create then new bodies, flesh if we want by genetics or designer bodies of our choosing including machines or whatever.
Many people tell me that they wouldn't want to live forever, maybe I wouldn't either but I sure would like several billion years to find out! Anyway, considering the amount of time that I'm expected to live now (80 years) and what might become optional (80 billion years) I don't want to miss out on the fun.

Concept of There Being A God
by Undecided inis it possible for the human mind to really understand what god is?.
think about all those trillions of centries that god was alone, with no need for a language, as there were no objects to name, no one to converse with, nothing to do.
there were no subjects to hate and kill, no one to love and bless, no satan opposer to battle, sort of like being dead.

Ashi...you got me thinking about something. Did you know that if you were to immerse yourself in a tank of warm water that is the same temperature as your skin, and shut out all sounds and light, that in a few minutes you would be having full blown hullicinations? That of course is what we call sensory deprivation.
Now consider how much more difficult it would be for a lifeform that is supposedly the most complex and advanced thinking, feeling, caring, loving, divinity around...to be locked in the same condition...with absolute nothingness for uncountless trillions upon trillions of years! I really think this is a more difficult question to answer than where God came from.
There would be no interaction with anything. Nothing to show love for or care about. To survive in this state, a lifeform COULDN'T have any feelings. What would any of us do if we were sentenced our entire lifetime in solitary confinement without a single sound, sight, feeling, or interaction with another being. We would be dead that is what, or completely stark raving mad.
If you are completely self contained...nothing can happen. You can have no ART, for this requires the interaction of others, you can have no music (at least as we know it), no dialog, zippo. Maybe you could play with mathematics for a few million years and come up with what digit of pi you end up with after all that time...woohie sounds like fun to me! Thus, I think it impossible for such an existence to last in uncountless time. I also think our universe may have evolved some very incredibly advanced lifeforms (probably machines) that we could consider God-like because of their development to our own, but they didn't create the universe or us.
But regardless, the idea of what is God-damned to me, would be the idea of spending eternity all dressed up and nowhere to go.

Oh, I wish I was in your shoes knowing what I know now...
Let me think, I would start by buying a bunch of blue Smurfs and putting those in plain view in the front window. I would have a sign on my front door that reads: Dear Jehovah's Witnesses, before you knock again on my door,please remove any watches, rings, and other jewelry because my pitbull has a difficult time digesting such items!
You might also try putting a larger sign on your front lawn that reads; Site of 2002 World Apostate Convention. But of course at times I enjoy letting them knock and having a lot of fun with them.
I'm sure though Lisa, that if any exdubs on this board live near you, they would be glad to give you a hand personally in getting rid of these pests.
Kind Regards,
Skipper
