I think it was my first thought after waking up this morning that I used to date Julia Roberts a long time ago.
I also have these unexplained thoughts that I was a fighter pilot in the U.S. military, although I'm not sure which service, but I may have been in two different branches over time. I am also confused about thoughts that I may have been a helicopter pilot. What's next? A space shuttle pilot? Seems like a lot for someone that is only 40. And, while I am not sure when this divergence happened, I am reasonably certain it was before I turned 33. So I must have been a pretty busy guy. Especially because I have thoughts that I was some kind of mathmetician too. I have these thoughts too that I was captured by enemy forces at some point and tortured while in captivity.

As I was trying to go to sleep last night, I had a thought that I have a doctorate in computer science from Princeton.
and I had thoughts that I studied music as well at Princeton.

This sounds very interesting. In my memory of taking Physics my Senior year at Ashdown, I remember being very interested in the class, but we didn’t cover such an interesting topic.

I think I even have memories of the graduate degree process. I am not sure of the terms to describe the process.

I actually do remember... something... I can’t explain it. It feels that I am holding an unmarked, undistinguishable book that I don’t know the name of or the contents but I know I have read it already.

A few minutes ago I started thinking that maybe I started at Princeton University in 1972. I would have been 13 at the time as Thomas Ray. I remember that Kerry Burgess started first grade in 1972. But then I decided that I probably started Princeton earlier than 1972 and maybe 1972 was the year I completed my first major degree. Or 1972 doesn’t really mean anything in particular to Thomas Ray; rather it is there for continuity sake for the life of Kerry Burgess.

Salesman
Also, "Salesman." I saw that in a dream while sleeping recently. I saw myself going through an induction process in the United States Marine Corps and I woke up understanding that I was dreaming of my actual experience in 1990. I saw a document that indicated I was being inducted to the United States Marine Corps with the officer grade of Chief Warrant Officer 2. I saw in the dream another document associated with my induction and that document indicated I had been assigned the informal name "Salesman."
Battlestar Galactica - tv miniseries - 12/08/2003, 12/09/2003
(from internet transcript)
Starbuck: Where the hell did the Cylons come from?
Adama: All we know for sure is that they achieved complete surprise and we're taking heavy losses. We lost thirty Battlestars in the opening attack.
Starbuck: That's a quarter of the fleet.
Adama: I need pilots, and I need fighters.
Starbuck: Pilots you've got - there's twenty of us climbing the walls down in the ready room, but fighters...
Adama: I think I seem to remember an entire squadron of fighters down on the starboard hangar bay yesterday.
Starbuck: (thinks about that for a second and then salutes) Yes, sir.
(Starboard hangar bay - shot of the museum railings being knocked over)
Starbuck: You're sure they'll fly?
Chief: Well, the reactor's still hot. So all we have to do is pull the rad buffers from the engine, refuel it, load the ordinance and you're ready to go. The biggest problem's gonna be getting them over to the port launch bay.
Starbuck: Why can't we use the starboard launch?
Chief: It's a gift shop now.

DANIEL
"For all time." Who the hell translated this?
[Catherine and Shore look at Myers.]
MYERS
Uh, I-I did.
DANIEL
(sighing)
Well, this should read: "A million years into the sky is Ra, sun god, sealed and buried for all time..." It's not "door to heaven". (He crosses that word out and replaces it.)
"His Stargate."
[Catherine laughs. Daniel turns back to face the others. Kawalski watches with his arms folded.]
DANIEL
Well, so why is the military so interested in 5,000 year old Egyptian tablets?
O'NEIL
My report says 10,000.
[O'Neil, dressed in Class A uniform, stands behind them with a folder in his arm. They all turn around. Kawalski stands at attention.]
KAWALSKI
Afternoon, Colonel.

O'NEIL
I'm Colonel Jack O'Neil from General West's office. I'll be taking over from now on.
DANIEL
(low, to Shore)
This figure 10,000 is ludicrous. I mean, Egyptian culture didn't even exist
SHORE
Mmm. We know. But the sonic and radio carbon tests are conclusive.
DANIEL
Well, these are cover stones. Was there a tomb underneath?
SHORE
No, no, no. But we found something a lot more interesting.
O'NEIL
Excuse me. This information has become classified.
(to Kawalski)
From now on, no information is to be passed on to non-military personnel without my express permission.
From 7/13/1984 ( premiere USA film "The Last Starfighter" ) To 5/28/1993 ( ) is 3241 days
From 11/2/1965 ( my known birth date in Antlers, Oklahoma, USA, as Kerry Wayne Burgess ) To 9/17/1974 ( the US Navy F-14 Tomcat jet-fighter aircraft enters active service in the US Navy fleet AND from the thoughts in my conscious mind, coinciding with United States of America Veterans Affairs hospital psychiatric doctor medical drugs: my biological brother US Navy Commander Thomas Reagan is the first US Navy F-14 Tomcat Commander Air Group ) is 3241 days
From 5/11/1929 ( from The Daily Princetonian publication, Princeton University: Russell Speaks On "Immortality" In His Lecture Tomorrow Evening ) To 6/29/1984 ( as me, Kerry Burgess, my official US Navy enlisted records includes: Part III - Record of Clearance ) is 20138 days
20138 = 10069 + 10069
From 11/2/1965 ( my known birth date in Antlers, Oklahoma, USA, as Kerry Wayne Burgess ) To 5/28/1993 ( ) is 10069 days

by me, Kerry Burgess, August 28, 2018
I wonder if that's the same day I remember graduating from United States Navy basic training in Orlando.
Must have been.
The uncertainty in my mind is because of vague memories I still have about those last days before we left.
I can still visualize that last day, had my seabag and sunglasses on and the company commander sending us off and I can visualize myself walking for the last time out the door of that barracks we had been in for 8 weeks.
I went across base to begin Basic Electricity and Electronics School for the Electronics Technician occupation rating, a rating I chose because it was one of only two ratings in the Advanced Electronics Field, along with Fire Controlman, and the ET rating required several more weeks of electronics training than FC and I found that appealing to me. Several weeks later, being completely unprepared for unhindered access to cheap alcohol, having been sheltered from alcohol and then on my own with no old woman screeching at me, with no closed door in her house I could ever escape to away from her, I let myself get kicked out of school and sent out to the fleet to work in the deck department as a non-rated sailor. Working my butt off, as since 14 years old, from my own personal initiative and with no personal role models in my past experience, I had become accustomed to regular employment, I was allowed to select a rating to aspire for and I chose the gun/missile Fire Controlman (FC) (in the last days of the Fire Control Technician Missiles (FTM) rating) and worked my way back up
I had spent over a year - a total of 419 days to be exact - on a shakedown period for the USS Taylor FFG-50 where I had many responsibilities including being responsible for the boatswain locker, helmsman, lookout, repair locker personnel, damage control, others , including helicopter flight deck crewman
All I know for certain is my official military records tell me I was transferred from basic training by the United States Navy on Monday, July 16, 1984.
The previous Friday was the 13th.
The details I vaguely recall are about how my company, C155, finished the course of instruction several days before the other company's finished. The reason, I vaguely recall, is that several companies began the course of instruction during the same week but on different days of the week. So we started on a day before the others started and we finished a few days before the last company finished. If we started on a Monday then others started on Friday. So we finished on a Monday and they finished on a Friday. But we all graduated on the same day, which I believe was a Friday and I have reason to believe was the 13th. I can't imagine we were goofing off for over a week waiting for the other company to finish the course. K076 was the female company I remember starting with us on the same day and I think they were in the same large classroom with us for classroom instruction. I remember a vast number of sailors being on the field for graduation ceremony and my company was a large group of sailors.
The answer might be out there somewhere on the internet but I can't find it.
