I was young, maybe in my early teens and was forced to dance with an older man much taller than I was because he thought I was attractive in my disguise of a dress, makeup and a wig. Really awkward way to start a dream but I quickly found an opportunity to break through the crowd around us and left onto the back of a giant magical horse before reaching my hand down to swing my girlfriend onto the horses back behind me. The horse was directed by some sort of telepathic communication I had with it that I called "the vision." To escape the pursuing authorities the magical beast jumped over a train whereafter we had to find a hotel to stop and rest while I watched an old movie that had a duet between a man and woman which would both suppress my insanity and enable the vision for me to communicate with the horse. Learn the song. Learn the song. I slept about 12:30 until almost 4:30am.

Someone ear marked Donald "Duck'n Shots" Trump at his political rally in Pennsylvania today. I bet that will basically guarantee he wins the next Presidential election. I was looking at the news using the word "neutralized" when referring to the shooter and thinking that the term is befitting for what the government and authorities do to someone accused of a crime. I was financially and socially "neutralized" for them to get away with three years in jail and then the bogus trial and conviction. Now the prison continues to try to neutralize my ability to defend myself with restrictions so unreasonable that it significantly compromises access to legal resources or a social network of people inclined to help me right this wrong. I think neutralized is not the best term for what happened to Trumps attacker. The attack killed someone and he or she was killed in response. It feels like they use the term neutralize to reserve ethical and emotional justification. The attacker allegedly shot eight times but when you listen to the gun fire there is a final shot that happens in the end that sounds like the authorities put an extra shot into the attacker to assure he was dead. Maybe he was neutralized and then executed just in case? It seemed like it was a late shot but the attacker could have done so much more damage. It really was a commendable response by the secret service and security detail.

​I hope my kids enjoyed the thunderstorm tonight. We would open the door and watch the storms from inside my house or inside the sunporch when we had warm weather storms like tonight.
