      That could simply mean that he not useing a type of skill or gift.
    If you notice, a piece of Oak is a hard piece of wood. Not only
    it's hard, but if it's a piece of furniture, you know that it just
    sits around and do nothing. Being that oak is a hard piece of wood,
    your friend could be a very stubborn person, and do the opposit
    of what he's supposed to do. I can't really write this like it's
    coming to me, but it's the best I could do.

    Thanks Lorenzo, will pass that along.
    
    By the way, how's your 'keet doing?

      He's doing just fine. Being that I didn't really have the time
    to take care of him, I gave him to my sister and she's having a
    ball with him.
    
    Thanks for asking..

    	O.K. - I give up - What's a 'keet?  (cat maybe?)
    

    This is only a guess -
    
                     para-keet??

    Re .5, .6 (Marion):
    
    Well, it _is_ a parakeet.  Lorenzo asked us for advice on the strange
    behavior of his parakeet some time ago.
    
    Glad the little one's doing okay, Lorenzo.

    Isn't it extremely unusual for a human being to dream about actually
    *being* an inanimate object??

    Well, uh, no.  I have actually had a few dreams (nightmares?) in
    which I was a government employee.

    RE: .8
    
         I don't know how rare it is...I have had the experience of
    sensing myself somehow as some type of massive mineral (i.e., a
    large boulder) in the moments just prior to falling asleep.  For
    me it has always been a little disturbing to feel like that.  What
    it feels like is as though I am a large, probably (but not necessarily)
    immobile mass of rock which can see and hear and be very aware of
    all around me at that time.

    Just off the top of my head, I vaguely recall this category from
    a survey of dream content.  So, while it may be unusual, it isn't
    unheard of.  I think our dreams are much less limited than what
    we can *remember* of our dreams -- the weirder a dream the more
    likely it is to be forgotten or transformed into something somewhat
    more rational in our memories (this has been demonstrated by asking
    about dreams immediately after people wake up and then later on).

    Perhaps his drawers are too tight or he has something to get off
    his chest.  Does he feel put-upon?  Has he taken a Pledge?  Are
    his parents Oakies?  Perhaps he feels his friendship is just a veneer,
    or he had just seen "The Dresser" on HBO.  Tell him to take two
    aspirins and stay away from woodpeckers.

Does this mean we're turned into Habits?  or possibly olives, or (shudder)
anchovies!?! ;-)

John has already become an anchovy!  (Shudder!)

Olive you,

(oh NO!)

    I'd rather be hobbit forming....

    Hi Dave,
    
    I'm sure my friend will thoroughly enjoy the responses.  This kind 
    of humor is, I believe, right up his alley.
    
    Cindy

    For the past three or four nights, I have dreamed about looking
    at objects on top of bureaus.  No kidding.  This note must be 
    sitting somewhere in my subconscious, having been internally deemed,
    for whatever "rational" reason, a handy symbol.
    
    Could be worse, I guess...
    
    MLG

    
    I think that this bureau (which would we could refer to as the Bureau
    of Investigation) could represent the subjects own unexplored
    subconscious mind.  I've read that people often times dream of
    exploring a house or other unfamiliar territory and this represents
    exploration of the unconscious mind.  Of course if the bureau is
    empty I'd be worried.  ;-)

    RE: .30 >Of course if the bureau is empty I'd be worried<
    
    How rude?   But true, if your definition is correct!
    

    
    Re.30         
    
    That has definite possibilities.  My friend is just now getting into
    metaphysics, mind/body healing, etc., in a big way.  In fact, this 
    was my first guess - that he is on the verge of opening some places 
    that have been closed for a very long time.
    
    Fortunately his childhood was a good one, so he's a step ahead of
    most people and I suspect that whatever he uncovers will benefit
    him greatly.  
    
    Cindy

	I would interpret this dream to be a symbol of organizing one's life and
putting things in order. A bureau has drawers in which to put things in an 
organized manner. They also tend to be personal things.

    From the person who inspired me to enter .0......
    
    Please post these details to DEJAVU 796. 

    Oak,  definitely oak, hard, stained, bowed front with metal handles
    that were perhaps not the same age as the chest itself.  Antique, four
    short cabriole legs, four drawers, grain visible, handsome (if you
    like oak).  When shuddering, the little metal handles would make a
    familiar ting before coming to rest.  Sort of helpless feelings or
    frustration from not being able to move about, communicate.  Nothing
    was on top of the chest of drawers and there was no sense of what was
    inside. After being conscious that I was the chest of drawers, a sense
    of problem came over me, then resolution, only to be followed by
    problem.  After waves of this, it became apparent that this was
    eternal and caused frustration, determination, a twinge of tenacity. 

    Your responses have been fun and interesting.    
    
    Thank you.
