This Is What I Think.
Sunday, June 30, 2013
Freaked-Out "Under the Dome" Monday is upon us again almost.
I anticipate I will sleep again before the new episode premieres Monday night.
What will I see this next time in my sleeping dreams?
And why does it matter?
WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME?
WHY AM I HAVING PRESCIENT SLEEPING DREAMS?!

[Having arrived in Earth's distant past, Captain Kirk steals clothing so he and Spock can blend in but is halted by the sudden appearance of a policeman]
Policeman: [seeing Kirk with an armload of clothing] Well?
Capt. Kirk: You're a police officer. I recognize the traditional accoutrements.
Spock: [in regards to his own appearance] You were saying you'll have no trouble explaining it.

He's in here!
He's in here!
Get him! Get him!
I've been afraid
a lot of times in my life...
but I didn't know
the real meaning of fear...
until I had kissed Becky.
A moment's sleep,
and the girl I loved...
was an inhuman enemy
bent on my destruction.
JOURNAL ARCHIVE: August 13, 2006
A while back, I suddenly decided that Becky Reed represented my military activities over the Bekaa Valley in the 80s. I wrote about a time she and I were kissing in the cab of my blue Chevrolet and I looked out the rear window and was annoyed at the smoke that was rising up over the tailgate from the exhaust. I was first thinking that represented the exhaust from an F-14 I was flying but then I started thinking those were the smoke trails of two anti-aircraft missiles rising up like a couple of cobra's about to strike me. When I wrote of Becky, I recalled a caption she wrote on a photo she gave me: "Here I am, doing what I do best." I wondered if there some kind of photo of me flying in combat in the Bekaa Valley. In the photo from my memory, she was taking a nap on a couch.

Ballistic trauma
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term ballistic trauma refers to a form of physical trauma sustained from the discharge of arms or munitions. The most common forms of ballistic trauma stem from firearms used in armed conflicts
The degree of tissue disruption caused by a projectile is related to the size of the temporary versus permanent cavity it creates as it passes through tissue.
Non-fatal gunshot wounds frequently have severe and long-lasting effects, even after the victim has made a successful recovery. Typically, the consequences involve some form of major disfigurement and/or permanent disability.

B-A-D.
You know the funny part? I probably haven't read this item in several years. And yet I still repeated it just a short while ago. Only after I wrote about that memory I went back a short while afterwards to look for references in my journal, which I thought was there. But I didn't recall precisely what I had written, especially how I could paraphrase almost precisely what I had written. I have just never considered myself to have a very good memory for reciting details. I don't know, maybe I did and now old age makes me feel less confident. I am writing about it now because simply I want to regain some kind of superpower I used to have and that is always available to me but that is not consciously accessible to me right now for some reason, as though I am deliberately ignoring it.
I just remembered I had another one of those sleeping dreams yesterday with the recurring theme of inoperative automobile brakes. In the sleeping dream yesterday, last time I was asleep, I was driving a schoolbus. There was a few passengers but they were vague. Some of the sleeping dream has faded from conscious awareness. What I still now recall was something as though I was feeling pleased with myself because I was going to perfectly park that schoolbus and I was feeling pleased about that and then I got to the point where I was going to park it and that was the point where I hit the brakes and the brakes didn't work. Not even the smallest amount would the brakes work. So I went backwards and forwards a few times and I was highly aggravated because the brakes wouldn't work and I would roll forward and then have to go backwards and I never could stop the bus where I wanted it to stop. Don't now recall if that was how the sleeping dream ended.
As I sit here now at my desk I have not driven an automobile for even 1 minute in the past 2937 days, give or take one day or slightly more. June 2005 was the last time I have driven a car so why would I have sleeping dreams now, over 8 years later, about driving a vehicle?
And as I wrote earlier today the reason I am writing about some of this stuff is that I hope feelings of nostalgia from the memories in my mind that I consider normal will help me sort of rewire the memories I have in my mind from the 1990s that are blocked by the security drug. As I said earlier, I have some memories of the 1990s but those are managed memories created by not consuming the security drug during certain periods of time and that was so that I would not have a completely blank memory of the 1990s and that is because if I had suddenly woken up with a blank memory then that would cause me to question my memory more, not to mention I would have had nothing to do.
So you see how I had details mixed up with facts.
I was secretly drugged. For a long time my official government role, among many others, was to pretend to be my biological brother Thomas Reagan. People who knew me in childhood from De Queen Arkansas could have met my biological brother Thomas Reagan in the 1990s and they would have completely believed that he was me, Kerry Burgess.
So he was in Africa in 1987. I was in Africa in Somalia in 1993.
JOURNAL ARCHIVE: July 31, 2006
In that 5th grade class in De Queen, Kendra Rogers sat behind me. One day she put a tack in my seat before I sat down. She was laughing later about how I "screamed." I protested that I didn't "scream," that I made some other kind of masculine response, that I can't remember now. I sure did like her. Lisa Card was in that class too, although I can't remember where she sat.

I have been thinking for a while about a journal I "remember" having in my youth as Kerry Burgess. I have been wondering if I actually had a journal with me as I crossed the African desert and that is the journal I "remember." I can "remember" Kendra Rogers yelling across a short distance to "Run, Kerry!" I think I was running for the bus.

XL President of the United States: 1981 - 1989
Remarks to the Finalists in the Teacher in Space Project
June 26, 1985
The President. Class will come to order. [Laughter] Well, good afternoon, and welcome to the White House, if no one has said that to you yet.
First, let me congratulate you all. The fact that you've come this far in the selection process is testimony to your abilities and the respect of your colleagues. And I'm sure that you've made your schools and communities and your students very proud. I also want to tell you that your shuttle doesn't blast off for a while yet, so there's still time to back out. [Laughter]
I suppose that we all have a few special teachers that we remember with particular affection and gratitude. One such teacher for me was Esther Barton, back in Dixon, Illinois.

De Queen
So then I started looking for De Queen Arkansas.
By the way, Chad and Michelle told me about the pending Ashdown class reunion next year and I would really like to go but that seems impossible for me to attend the way things are now.
A few days ago I was trying to remember when we lived away from De Queen and I am not so clear on that anymore.
I know that we moved to California for a brief period and then we lived in McAlester Oklahoma and back in Antlers Oklahoma for brief periods and I remember those places because I went to public school briefly in those places.
Recently I started thinking I was in public school in Santa Ana California during 1973 and I was thinking of that recently when I watched again the DVD for the 1973 film "The Last Detail."
I'm fairly certain I even found on the map the place we lived in Santa Ana.
I have no idea if this is correct, and I am not going to ask my (surrogate) mother because I generally distrust her on everything now, but I think this is where we lived:
Well, the hell with it. I was going to go back and find that place again the Google overhead view map but I didn't find it immediately and what are really the chances that placed we lived in 1973 is still there? I looked at the Google streetview and it didn't look terribly old but still that was 40 years ago. I have no idea if they would have torn it down by now and built over it.
The reason I was thinking of that was because of that scene in that 1973 film "The Last Detail" where they are getting drunk in the parking garage. One time, my surrogate mother and her husband, the United States Marine, invited some of their friends over to our apartment. They were drinking Knotts Berry Farm wine, I think it was called, and unless I am very much mistaken, my surrogate mother offered me a cup of it. I drank some more when they were out of the kitchen and then I was drunk and she said I was embarrassing her guests, who did not have children. I am pretty certain that was during the winter of 1973. I remember that winter because I had a new raincoat and I was wondering if it would rain because I wanted to wear that raincoat out in the rain but people told me that there was very little rain there and usually only in the winter and one time it did start raining but I was disappointed that there wasn't much rain.
I looked at the Google overhead images of that place because I remember railroad tracks and I remember getting in trouble because a woman told my parents one time when I climbed onto the cars of a freight train that had stopped and I got in a lot of trouble.
That courtyard is very distinctive to me. Something seems backwards about it though. Maybe that is just something about the nature of memory. I doubt those physical memories even exist in my brain anymore although I am far from an expert on human memory. My guess is that old memories are sort of similar to photocopies. The old memories that exist now in my mind, my guess is, are copies of memories I made because I remember times when I thought of those memories. So I remember details only in the form of remembering a memory. As with photocopies when you copy over and over the output begins to exhibit artifacts.
And so as I wrote earlier today the reason I am writing about some of this stuff is that I hope feelings of nostalgia from the memories in my mind that I consider normal will help me sort of rewire the memories I have in my mind from the 1990s that are blocked by the security drug. As I said earlier, I have some memories of the 1990s but those are managed memories created by not consuming the security drug during certain periods of time and that was so that I would not have a completely blank memory of the 1990s and that is because if I had suddenly woken up with a blank memory then that would cause me to question my memory more, not to mention I would have had nothing to do.
So anyway, I think I went to the second half of the second grade in Santa Ana California and that I went to the first half of second grade in De Queen Arkansas and I attended the entire first grade at De Queen.
So then I think we moved to McAlester Oklahoma and I think I went to the first half of third grade in McAlester Oklahoma and then a short while after that we lived back in Antlers Oklahoma and I went to school there too but I am not clear on if that was second or third. I think I went to part of the third grade in De Queen too and then I attended classes there all the way through the eighth grade. After the eight grade finished we moved to Ashdown Arkansas and I attended 9th grade there until graduating from there in the 12th grade.
So I started looking at De Queen Arkansas and I have avoided Facebook for many years but I decided to look closer at it, especially after my earlier scathing report on that severe racketeering organization that I am certain has left those rat-bastards trembling with extreme fear every time the mainstream media outlets flash a global news alert to the quivering masses of the world that I have just posted another scathing report on my public blog.
Ah, the first person I looked up: Kendra Rogers. I wish I was a better writer at describing how much I liked her back when we were just children. I think I have mentioned her before in my journal. I think I wrote about the time she placed a tack in my seat in Mrs. Godwin's class and she was laughing about how I screamed when I sat on it and I objected that I had not "screamed" and that just didn't sound manly enough.
I was looking for Lisa Card too, another kid that I liked a lot when I was a youngster, but I don't see anything listed for her.
Then I found Renee Logan's Facebook page. I remember her well too. There was once some kind of charity fundraiser or something for our class and she and I were the two chosen from our class and I remember we were sitting on bales of hay in the De Queen elementary school auditorium. Later I would wonder about "Logan's Run" and I am not certain when I first saw that film. I want to say that we were aware of it when attending De Queen elementary school in 1976 but I am not certain if I saw it in the theatres when it premiered or any time soon afterwards. I have no idea when I first saw it. I might have read a book based on that story if one was available. I remember a teacher around that time taking away from me a copy of "THX 1138" I was reading and that I had brought into class.
So anyway, from Renee Logan's page I downloaded the class photos she posted of us.
I downloaded the photo's she posted there of us in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th grades.
The photos are small and blurry and I cannot tell if I was in that second grade photo. Maybe not. The photo seemed instantly familiar to me though. Or it might have just been the shawl the one girl on the left side front is wearing. I either remember the photo or I remember her wearing that to class. I think that is Teresa Purvine but I'm not certain. If I am in the photo, and it's hard to tell because it's blurry, then that might be me standing on the lowest bench in the second row from the floor-level and on the photo-left. Not certain though but there is a lot familiar about photo and I guess that is because I remember looking at it in a collection that I guess my sister still has. I do remember a lot of those kids in that photo.
In the third grade photo I think I am the kid that is second row down from the top row and photo-right. I am pretty certain that is me standing there in my Cub Scout uniform shirt. That seems familiar that I wore that shirt for the class photo. I dropped out of the Scouts and I never did move up to Boy Scout. That teacher is familiar and I can almost remember her name: Mrs. Van Webber? Can't recall for certain. I guess that's me in that photo. Not certain. Can't remember if there were different classes of third graders back then. There might have been only one third grade class and so that would mean certainly I am in that photo. I recognize some of the kids in the photo.
That 4th grade photo seems to have me in it again wearing my Cub Scout uniform shirt. As with all those photos the quality is too blurry to even read the plague the one kid is holding and I am referencing the title of Renee Logan's Facebook posting. The photo is really too blurry to say for certain but that is familiar to me, sitting there in that photo wearing my Cub Scout uniform shirt.
The 5th grade photo is most certainly one with me in it. I am very certain that is me in the first seated row and third from photo-left. I think that is Terersa Purvine to my right. Beth Collins maybe seated on my left. Diane Mathevosian is standing behind me. Lisa Card is photo-left and holding the plague. Kendra Rogers is on the top row and photo-right and standing next to Mrs. Godwin.
Mrs. Godwin. I sure did like her. I remember one time she told me in class that I didn't have to write my CB handle on the top of my homework.

`Bah!' said Scrooge, `Humbug!'
He had so heated himself with rapid walking in the fog and frost, this nephew of Scrooge's, that he was all in a glow; his face was ruddy and handsome; his eyes sparkled, and his breath smoked again. `Christmas a humbug, uncle!' said Scrooge's nephew. `You don't mean that, I am sure?'
`I do,' said Scrooge. `Merry Christmas! What right have you to be merry? What reason have you to be merry? You're poor enough.'
`Come, then,' returned the nephew gaily. `What right have you to be dismal? What reason have you to be morose? You're rich enough.'
Scrooge having no better answer ready on the spur of the moment, said `Bah!' again; and followed it up with `Humbug.'

Ashdown
I was wondering why Tom Withem's Facebook page referenced the USS Enterprise CVN 65. Apparently Lesa Jewell Withem's son, Cole Withem, has served in the US Navy since 2007 and is a nuclear-specialized Machinist's Mate assigned to that ship.
What will they think of next, Colonel Taylor.
Looking around I started looking at Mary Marchand's Facebook page, as I followed the links of the friends that are listed on a Facebook page for Lesa Jewell Withem that is still active.
I saw what seems to be class reunion from 2004 for the Class of 1984. I was just thinking about that again a couple days ago.
Only in recent months did the notion suddenly dawn on me that I completely forgot about the possibility of a twenty year reunion, presumably in the year 2004.
So that got me thinking in recent days that I was using my microsoft.com email address to communicate with Lesa Jewell Withem back before I quit working at Microsoft.
If she had tried to email me about the reunion after I quit working there on 06 February 2004 then I wouldn't have got the message. I also never even thought to check with anybody about it. Can't recall the last time I emailed Lesa. I had also traded emails with Becky Reed when I was working at Microsoft but she wasn't in my graduation class as she graduated before I did.
I downloaded some photos from Mary's page and those sure bring back some memories. I guess that was the 10th grade that photo of what seems to be the yearbook page of Michelle Center and of me just above the photo of her. That could have been our senior year though. I think all those photos are of our senior year. The second one seems to be of sitting across the table from Chad Trammell. I am the one holding a sheet of paper. Chad is on the photo-left of me, as he has his back to the camera and his right arm outstretched. On the other side of me appears to be James Judd. Two smart guys a lot smarter than I was at Ashdown Arkansas.
There are other photos that are labeled "Reunion" and that I guess are the class reunion from 2004. I recognize Michelle Center and that must be her husband with her, the retired United States Marine Corps Master Sergeant and who I have never met.
I started off here because I was wondering if Tammie Hood has a Facebook page but I haven't got that far yet.
Facebook. Bah, humbug. (Funny story about "humbug" from "The Christmas Carol" I recently read and that elaborates on the true reason he always said that.)
I am hoping, as I wrote in private email a while back, that feelings of nostalgia about real memories in my mind will sort of rewire access to memories in my mind that are blocked by the security drug from the 1990s. That is why I have actual working memory of that class reunion in 1994, as well as working memories that are consistent with my cover identity. To have blank memory of the 1990s would have only encouraged me to question my memory.

Navy Nurse Battling Cancer, But Living Life To The Fullest

A friend of roughly 14 years, Michelle Ortiz said she remembers meeting Ronda while the two were in the Navy's Combat Casualty Care Course (C4). The two later worked together as OR nurses.
"I always tell her I want to be like her when I grow up because she's so amazingly positive," she laughed. "I admire the way she sees the best in everybody. She always makes everything more fun. It's a quality I wish I had."

Quotes
Viper: Damn, this kid is good!
I bought that Litespeed bicycle at the REI in Redmond back in the year 2002. That was a great bicycle. Can't recall offhand if I rode it into work and parked it in my cubicle at Microsoft as I did my other bicycle. I know I talked a lot about how I liked that Litespeed to people at Microsoft. There were photos of me on that Litespeed at Ironman Coeur d'Alene in 2003 and 2004.
And you know that was driving those bastards and transvestite bitches crazy when I did something like that and right under their noses, right in front of them, just pointing my finger at them and laughing at their cowardice.

I've been remembering that time when people around me started talking about health problems from over training in their youth. There was this one time I went to a Triathlon club meeting at REI that I found out about through Microsoft. I was really creeped out by that meeting. Nothing weird about what the people were doing, just the way they seemed to know me. It's not unlike being an executive or an officer.
I've been wondering lately if those memories I have of training on Hicks Road for boot camp actually represent me training in Hawaii for a marathon.

Navy Nurse Battling Cancer, But Living Life To The Fullest
by Sarah Fortney Journal Staff Writer
A friend of roughly 14 years, Michelle Ortiz said she remembers meeting Ronda while the two were in the Navy's Combat Casualty Care Course (C4). The two later worked together as OR nurses.
"I always tell her I want to be like her when I grow up because she's so amazingly positive," she laughed. "I admire the way she sees the best in everybody. She always makes everything more fun. It's a quality I wish I had."

Local companies REI and Microsoft were among a handful of businesses praised Tuesday by President Obama
"We save a little over $200 every time we replace what would have been an emergency-room visit with a house call," Hall said.
Kent-based REI, according to the White House, helps employees take up outdoor activities by offering discounts on gear and apparel purchases, free rentals and time off.
It also reduces the amount employees pay for health coverage if they adopt several healthful habits

U.S. Navy Helicopter Combat Support Squadron SEVEN
"Combat SAR Prevents POWs"
September 1st 1967 marked the beginning of one of the most storied periods in US Naval Aviation History with the establishment of Helicopter Combat Support Squadron SEVEN (HC-7), the "SEADEVILS". The next 7 years and 9 months were filled with no finer examples of dedication, professionalism and heroic acts. This site is a tribute to those that served in this historic Naval Aviation Squadron. In these pages you can learn about the men, machines and missions of the squadron in supporting the war to preserve the independence of the Republic of South Vietnam and support the operations of the U.S. Seventh Fleet.
At establishment, HC-7 was tasked with multiple missions including Logistics, Vertical Replenishment, Seventh Fleet Flagship, Mine Countermeasure, Oceanographic, home station SAR and Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR). It didn't take long before the Navy realized that the CSAR mission deserved the complete attention of the unit and all other missions were tasked to other squadrons. This left HC-7 as the Navy's only active duty squadron dedicated to CSAR to ever exist. The CSAR mission was not new; it was being accomplished by HC and HS squadrons as an additional duty. HC-7 however turned the lessons learned by the other units into a functional CSAR doctrine that would be its sole focus.

HC-7
The sixth and last change of this momentous late summer was the establishment of Helicopter Combat Support Squadron Seven, HC-7.
Page 328
Accordingly, on September 1, 1967, HC-1 was broken up into three additional squadrons, HC-3, HC-5, and HC-7. HC-3 took control of the vertical-replenishment detachments assigned to ships home-ported in the continental United States, and took with it the UH-46s. HC-5 took over ice-reconnaissance mission and the training of replacement pilots headed for H-2 detachments. HC-1 retained control of the nine CVA plane-guard detachments.
HC-7 took contol of the vertical-replenishment detachments for ships home-ported in the western Pacific, and control of the combat SAR detachments. A strong driver for reorganization was the growing realization that successive HS squadrons and HC-1 detachments rotating into combat for a few short months were not developing the corporate memory and combat seasoning that would foster development of expertise in the mission.

AWARDS AND CITATIONS
Navy Cross
Awarded for actions during the Vietnam War
The President of the United States of America takes pleasure in presenting the Navy Cross to Lieutenant, Junior Grade Clarence Leroy Cook (NSN: 0-703267), United States Naval Reserve, for extraordinary heroism while serving as Copilot of a search and rescue helicopter, attached to Helicopter Combat Support Squadron SEVEN (HC-7), Detachment 104, embarked aboard U.S.S. PREBLE (DLG-15) operating as a unit of the United States Seventh Fleet, in connection with the rescue of two downed aviators in North Vietnam on 19 June 1968. Providing exceptional support to the Pilot of his aircraft throughout this daring night rescue mission which was carried out despite extremely formidable enemy opposition, Lieutenant Cook rendered invaluable assistance in locating and maintaining references to the position of the survivors, and in utilizing his machine gun to suppress hostile small arms and automatic weapons fire which was directed at the rescue helicopter with growing intensity during four difficult descents which culminated in the successful rescue of the survivors. By his professional skill, prompt actions, and great personal valor in the face of intense enemy fire, Lieutenant Cook contributed in large measure to the success of this rescue mission and upheld the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsunami
Tsunami
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A tsunami is a series of water waves caused by the displacement of a large volume of a body of water, generally an ocean or a large lake. Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions (including detonations of underwater nuclear devices), landslides, glacier calvings, meteorite impacts and other disturbances above or below water all have the potential to generate a tsunami.
Tsunami waves do not resemble normal sea waves, because their wavelength is far longer. Rather than appearing as a breaking wave, a tsunami may instead initially resemble a rapidly rising tide
Characteristics
Tsunamis cause damage by two mechanisms: the smashing force of a wall of water travelling at high speed
As the tsunami approaches the coast and the waters become shallow, wave shoaling compresses the wave and its speed decreases below 80 kilometres per hour (50 mph). Its wavelength diminishes to less than 20 kilometres (12 mi) and its amplitude grows enormously. Since the wave still has the same very long period, the tsunami may take minutes to reach full height. Except for the very largest tsunamis, the approaching wave does not break, but rather appears like a fast-moving tidal bore. Open bays and coastlines adjacent to very deep water may shape the tsunami further into a step-like wave with a steep-breaking front.
When the tsunami's wave peak reaches the shore, the resulting temporary rise in sea level is termed run up.
As a weapon
There have been studies and at least one attempt to create tsunami waves as a weapon. In World War II, the New Zealand Military Forces initiated Project Seal, which attempted to create small tsunamis with explosives in the area of today's Shakespear Regional Park; the attempt failed.

tsunami
A very large ocean wave that is caused by an underwater earthquake or volcanic eruption and often causes extreme destruction when it strikes land. Tsunamis can have heights of up to 30 m (98 ft) and reach speeds of 950 km (589 mi) per hour.

Get ready for 80- and 90-degree temperatures
By KING 5 News and Associated Press
KING5
updated 37 minutes ago [ RETRIEVED 1 PM 28 June 2013 Pacific Time Seattle USA ]
SEATTLE -- A heat wave began Friday in Western Washington that is expected to reach the low 90s by the middle of next week.
KING 5 Meteorologist Jim Guy says highs at Sea-Tac Airport are expected to reach the low 80s Friday and Saturday, then warm up to the mid-to-high 80s Sunday and Monday before topping out at 90 on Tuesday.
The record for July 1 at Sea-Tac Airport is 87 degrees, set most recently in 1995. And the record for July 2 is 92, set in 1968.
Things will cool down considerably Wednesday and Thursday.
Temperatures east of the Cascades will be even hotter, as they usually are, with weekend highs in the 80s and 90s, possibly breaking 100 on Monday and Tuesday.
In Spokane, temperatures in the 90s are expected Saturday and Sunday during the Hoopfest 3-on-3 basketball tournament. The event is expected to draw 28,000 players and up to 200,000 people downtown. They are being warned to drink plenty of fluids to avoid heat-related problems.
The downside of great weather is the risks some people take to enjoy it at rivers, lakes and beaches in Washington. Cold water is a shock.
JOURNAL ARCHIVE: 05/13/08 3:15 PM
I had a dream similar to this one just before I woke up earlier. I can still visualize both of them and the only real similarity was that I found myself falling off a bridge towards the water below and that part about the roll, which reminds me of the space shuttle launching.
In the dream earlier, I seemed to have started by climbing onto a bridge, which I don't recognize, that later began to disintegrate for some reason that was not apparent in the dream. There are other details before that scene that I do not now remember. Then I was falling feet first to the water and I noted how green was the water. I had a tremendous amount of time to think as I was very high above the water and I was timing my breathing so that I would take a large breath just before I hit the water, in hopes of making it back up to the surface. I was also thinking of how I was going to pull my legs up to my chest after I went below the surface in hopes of slowing my descent through the water and so that I could return faster to the surface. I was also thinking of how I would point my feet down to the water so that the impact would not break my feet and ankles. In the dream I saw myself just about to impact the water surface and I can visualize to some extent the details about the water surface, which meant I was very close to it. I might also remember that scene because I was dreading hitting the water. The next part I remember is that I found myself on the bottom of the river and there was a lot of sediment around me and then I was trying to swim back up to the surface. I found myself thinking that the exertion of trying to swim was causing me to use more oxygen and I was not certain I was going to make it. I had no idea how far below the surface I was but I have been thinking since I woke up that I was probably more than 100 feet below the surface. I could see light above me, and it had been bright daylight when I was falling from the bridge, but the water around me was still dark as I was looking up towards the lighter section of water.
The notion I have pondered over the most since waking up is that the dream might actually be some kind of representation about the comet I diverted in 1976. The detail about finding myself on the river bed with the sediment around me actual represents that the comet would have blasted through the atmosphere in a matter of seconds and then hit the ocean floor, which would have then blasted all that material into the Earth's atmosphere and produced a blanket covering the Earth.
JOURNAL ARCHIVE: 11/30/07 6:05 AM
I had an odd dream, last night I think, that I associate with that programmed roll the space shuttle stack makes just after lift off.
In the dream, though, I had jumped off a bridge and the water was a very long ways down. I was absolutely certain I would survive the fall though and I was thinking to myself that I needed to take a large gulp of air just before I hit the surface because I was going to go far below the surface. But I was also preparing myself to pull my legs up to my chest after I went under the surface so that I would not go as far below the surface than if my body remained in a shape similar to an arrow. There was also something about someone waterskiing nearby behind a jet ski. It seemed that water skiier said something to me but I don't know how that was possible because he was so far off.

Bridge over troubled waters
by Capt. Bente Ravn
First published in SFOR Informer #11, May 28, 1997
Mostar - The war in Bosnia and Hercegovina (BiH) caused much pain and destruction. Many people lost family, friends, and homes and some cities became divided. One of the best known of these is Mostar, the largest city in Hercegovina with 109,000 inhabitants. In 1522 Mostar became the headquarters of the Ottoman administration of Hercegovina. Many military missions against Venetian cities were launched from the city, which came under Austrian control from 1878-1918, and then became part of Yugoslavia. Today it is a part of BiH.
According to a pre-war consensus, Mostar’s population consisted of 20 % Bosnian-Serbs, 40 % Bosniacs and 40 % Bosnian-Croats. There are practically no longer any Bosnian-Serbs in the city, they are living in the mountains south and east of the city. Bosniacs, make up 55 % of the city’s inhabitants live east of the river. Bosnian-Croats make up the remaining 45 %, and live on the west side of the Neretva.
Mostar has a story to tell. It is the story of the Old Bridge, an elegant single span arch built over the river Neretva by the Ottoman Turks. Mostar is an old city, established in the 15th century when a small settlement began to form around an old Roman wooden bridge over the Neretva river, but the name Mostar comes from the old white limestone bridge Stari Most (most means bridge, and stari means old - hence Mostar) which was finished in 1566 after nine years construction for the Ottoman emperor Sultan Sleiman the Magnificent.
On November 9, 1993, during bitter civil war in the city, the bridge was shelled by a Bosnian Croat tank from Mt. Hum. One of its last roles had been to allow Muslim defenders of the "left bank" cross the river and take supplies to their supporters and the population that had remained there. It withstood many centuries, but it could not survive this concentrated effort to demolish it. After several direct hits, this magnificent piece of history crashed into the waters below.

Flashback (psychology)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A flashback, or involuntary recurrent memory, is a psychological phenomenon in which an individual has a sudden, usually powerful, re-experiencing of a past experience or elements of a past experience. These experiences can be happy, sad, exciting, or any other emotion one can consider. The term is used particularly when the memory is recalled involuntarily
Relations to mental illness and drug use
Flashbacks are often associated with mental illness as they are a symptom and a feature in diagnostic criteria for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), acute stress disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Flashbacks have also been observed in people suffering from manic depression, depression, homesickness
