I'm certain there are aliens. I'm equally certain they are on *distant planets*, not flying around the backwoods of Earth abducting Cooter and Jethro.
Person? It was the Borg Collective. Just wait until they redecorate the place with all those hoses (because that's the first thing Borg do when they move in, put up hoses all over the place).
Odd thing is, I'm always me. Myself. Does that mean I'm a literary character in someone else's novel? Hmm. I have always suspected either Stephen King or Nora Ephron. (I think it's called "When Harry Met the Crimson King.")
Green Lantern's powers were great -- the ability to use that ring to do anything you can imagine, build any object you can think of. Of course it would always be green. Then there was that stupid weakness . . . the color yellow. How could he fa...
When I lived in Chattanooga, Eastgate mall used to be haunted by those survey people. We called them "The Venus Mall Trap." The only time getting snagged by them paid off: we got to see the preview trailers for Star Trek IV about a month before ...
Your stories are among my favorites. I wonder if some day one of us is going to leap off the web page and into the world of print. [ . . . Or, what Egon Spengler said . . . . ]
Imagine the reverse situation -- an alternate universe version of you. In this other world, you've found a relationship. Your partner is highly energetic, frenzied really, but apparently incapable of doing anything on their own. You have things...
I will miss this neighborhood. We have two dogs, Neri and Nora, both female Collies. Very smart, but maybe a little too analytical. About a year after we got Nora (the 2nd one), we were walking in our neighborhood when -- out of a driveway culv...
I'd bet they renamed Highway 666 because . . . well, I can't think a single metalhead here in town who wouldn't steal the sign. Replacing all the road markers every few weeks had to get tiresome.
 This sound like it's going to be a great story -- I'm looking forward to the next episodes.
I put a lot of time into music, and I see where you are coming from. Musicians have to deal with critics. A lot of times, the worst criticism comes as a kneejerk reaction, not a result of deep listening, nor from the standpoint of technical expe...
I hate to push this out of the philosophical realm, but for me, the simple reason is: I have to go to the can. Badly. (And get out of those seats -- they are not comfortable.) When you're watching a movie, and really into it, some of your perce...
Whatever I focus on becomes my whole world. It's easy to lose things when they move outside the scope of the tunnel vision. Has nothing to do with getting older, except I have a larger wasteland of memories spreading back behind me like miles an...
You know, probably pets are the best anchor point against that sort of fright. I don't have the same sort of nightmares as I did when I was a kid -- mine are not about fright, but about loss. For example, one night, I woke up from a dream where ...
Ah, but the real trick is to meet Heat Miser, and convince him to do something about Global Warming ;-)
I tried giving up coffee recently [actually, just cutting back from the 2 pots per day]. My resolve lasted about 2 hours. And yes, I have some now.
 I had a TRS-80 ... it gave me the advantage of learning BASIC, Pascal, Z80 Assembly language, and elementary shell scripting (it was called JCL or 'job control language' in TRSDOS). However, it was rotten for graphics. I knew that going in, but ...
I'm not sure it's possible to assign rigid interpretations to dreams. Context matters a lot. An owl could be anything from the one I hear at night (somewhere in the neighborhood) but have never seen, to Athena's symbol of wisdom, to Jerath the G...
This isn't going to make much sense. Or maybe it will. Maybe you'll land on my "frequency" and get it. Most of the time it seems like I'm rambling when I try to pass on something deep, but here goes. A long time ago, I read Roger Zelazny's Amb...
Years ago, when I became a vegetarian, I accidentally did the same thing, except with spinach. Let me tell you, overdosing on spinach doesn't exactly turn you into Popeye. Rodin's "The Thinker" comes to mind, actually.
J'étais là longtemps. Il est très "Hallmark", mais aimez-vous vous-même en premier. Je ne trouvais personne jusqu'à ce que j'ai abandonné la recherche. Votre titre est tout à fait exact!
 J'ai beaucoup de choses à dire. En bref: 1.) Pendant un an, j'apprenais le Français -- c'est comme musique. J'espère que je ne suis pas trop terribles! 2.) La plupart des gens interessants ont plus d'une dimension. 3.) Je suis également introvert...
This is one of the best Dandelife entries I've ever read. Man, I wish my Dad would actually get on the internet -- he's never talked about his time in Vietnam, and I don't want all that experience to be lost some day.
 My wife's biological mother died during childbirth, from the same thing.
They make me sneeze. Probably it's because the entire state of Florida smells like a burned out match about now. ;-)
 If this place gets any more sophisticated I'll come home and the story will already be written before I even log in ;-)
 You know, I've been doing lucid dreaming for years, but somehow, there's never text. There are images, feelings, sensations, colors, etc, but I can't remember having actually read anything in a dream, not to mention browse a web page. Weird, con...
That was one of the best surprises ever. I see why you encouraged me to get into pictures, now. It looks great!

Now that's interesting. In my house, I spend most of my free time nowadays playing music and studying French . . . I've always got some sort of project going. People ask me, "How did you learn to play all those instruments?" Well, it's simple m...
Welcome, Maria -- I am new here as well. I'm also an artist, except I'm a musician (and a middle school science teacher by day). I also found Dandelife through Wikipedia; it was an interesting concept, so I figured I'd try it. Like you I've alw...
