All right, who's the wise-gal again beaming jokes paranormal into my sleeping dreams?
All the details in this observation were composed in my mind earlier today. I remember waking from the dream just after 6:30 AM. I remember that because I got up to look around corners in my small apartment and I noticed the time and I always notice the time because I have to force myself to sleep the minimum amount of time. So I always try to remember how long I had been asleep. This morning was very different because this morning, for the first time I can recall, I slept soundly for about 5.5 hours before having to get up and look around the corner into the living room. I thought to myself of how soundly I had slept. So anyway, this all seems really familiar tonight. I am deliberately not recording certain specific highly relevant details. The funny part is how a few seconds of visualizations and dialog in my mind while asleep dreaming can manifest a profound impact on observations I make later in the day.

Helen: Gort! Klaatu barada nikto! Klaatu barada nikto!

My Day by Eleanor Roosevelt, November 26, 1947
The city of Dunkirk, N.Y. has apparently gained so much satisfaction from what it was able to do previously through Thanksgiving Day ceremonies in behalf of Dunkirk, France, that this year it is turning its attention to Anzio, Italy. Under the former plan, they forwarded gifts in kind worth around $75,000, and it is interesting to find that the new Anzio drive has resulted in even greater contributions.
Mayor Walter F. Murray has obtained valuable aid from the canneries in the neighborhood. And the city of Erie, Pa., is cooperating, as well as the surrounding villages and towns. All local organizations have been mobilized, and it is expected that very substantial supplies will be shipped to Anzio immediately after Thanksgiving Day.
To many people in this country, Anzio beachhead is a name that they will never forget. Ten percent of Dunkirk's population is of Italian descent, and they have of course been much interested in the present drive.
It seems to me that these personal, friendly gestures from one city to another are aids to the Marshall Plan which cannot be overestimated. And I hope that Dunkirk's example will be followed by many other cities throughout the country, since it is not really necessary to confine these generous gestures to any one particular holiday.

Chapter 52: Holden
And the Nauvoo had made it happen, in a way. Fred could tell the Mormons. Maybe they'd stop suing him now.
"Wow," he said.
"Yeah, well, let's not get too happy," Miller said. "I keep warning you. Doors and corners, kid. That's where they get you. Humans are too fucking stupid to listen. Well, you'll learn your lessons soon enough, and it's not my job to nursemaid the species through the next steps."
