Stop Sign

Did you have a dream about getting electrocuted in a Grace Brothers store yet ???

You were an unruly youngster, Samuel.

By the way, have you seen a doctor about these dreams? Are you on anti-depressants. I know they will often exacerbate constantly vivid dreams – they certainly did for me.

For those who weren’t listening to Kris McKenzie on 2CC yesterday afternoon, John (and probably Davky) is (are) referring to a story I told Kris where I wandered off when I was about two years old and managed to turn off the lights for half of a floor of the Civic Grace Brothers store (now Myer).

No Davky, I haven’t seen a docotr about them, most of these dreams happened a couple weeks ago when I was on a pseudoephedrine based medication…they were very vivid at that time.

I’m not on anti-depressants, although I know a few people who are.

It feels like everyone these days is on them. It’s sad, but I can understand. Been there, done that.

One does have to wonder if that is an indication of the way our society is heading, or just a “fad” in the medical community.

I’m not on antidepressants. I don’t need them .

Bit stressed about the driving, Samuel?

No Jey, although I was feeling like I was from another planet over the couple days that I had all of these dreams, and my concentration level was very low at the time, so I might have been at the time.

You seem to have a rather fragile immune system Samuel !

It’s been that way of late unfortunately.

I take it you won’t be attending Summernats then Samuel ?

No I won’t be, it really doesn’t interest me. That being said, I would like to commend Chic Henry on the work he has done to curb the anti-social behaviour which a minority of Summernats attendees seem to get involved in, and I would especially like to commend him on the partnership he has formed with the AFP this year.

I was very critical of Chic and Summernats last year, but I think a lot of my concerns have been addressed. I suppose I owe a debt of gratitude to the people who blew my comments out of proprtion and context, without them I doubt my opinion on the matter would ever have been heard by those with the power to fix things!

I stopped at a green light when driving when I had that awful plague last month. Fortunately no one was directly behind me.

Better that than running a red light Jey!

Bit stressed about the driving, Samuel?

Actually, now that I think about it, I’m absolutely paranoid about speed but I suppose that’s better than ignoring speed limits. It did get me waved straight through an RBT not that long ago…I think I was the only person on that road who wasn’t speeding!

Summernats – sometimes referred to as “summer gnats”.

Question – What do you do to a gnat ?

Answer – You SWAT it of course !

Yes, certainly better than running a red light.
It’s important to be conscious of speed, as it is with all things on the road, but try not to drive too slow if conditions are ‘normal’.

In good conditions, I generally try to sit on, or just under, the speed limit.

My Pop advised me to go 10 under just in case the police speed camera was out. I told him if I did that my partner would make me pull over and he’d get out and walk or insist on taking over the driving.
Either way it wouldn’t fly well.
