2093.0. "What is a nightmare ?" by GIDDAY::SETHI (Rent this space) Tue Jan 02 1996 02:52

    Hi All,

    I have been having nightmares about one of our co-moderators namely
    Cindy Painter.  These nightmares stated in the US when I came over to
    do a Technology Exchange Program. 

    The crazy thing about these nightmares is that I found myself driving
    through New York state at 120 mph on the way to Toronto in a day.  Or
    worse of all having Cindy saying "O my God, how did we get here in 2
    hours ?".  This nightmare continues to this day.  This time my dream was 
    worse, I found myself seeing Cindy in Australia at the airport.
    
    Can someone tell me if they have met Cindy ?  Does she really exist ? 
    Do we really exist or are we just someones nightmare ?  Is there a
    meaning to this nightmare ?  What is a nightmare ?
    
    Regards,

    hehehehe. She'll love this. :-)  Yeah Sunil, I have met Cindy and I can
    emphatically state that she doesn't exist. (At least on this plane of
    existence. A DC-8 last time I looked) Sometimes she's here and
    sometimes she's there. Right now, I believe that she's there, but will
    come back here soon. (Or maybe not)

    	There once was a testy nightmare,
    	That repeated itself, Not Rare!
    	Folks thought it was a scary dream,
    	One that caused you to squirm and scream!
    	But, a nightmare is really just a female horse,
    	That prefers to pull wagons in the dark, of course!
    
    	There in the land down under,
    	The logic of the folk makes you wonder.
    	For, if their water goes opps down the drain,
    	Is it the same with their left/right brains?       BillM

    Hi PJ and Bill,

    I like this one ....

    >But, a nightmare is really just a female horse,

    Please stop talking about her in this manner, it will only up set her,
    even though it's true :-).

    I have met Cindy an experience she will never forget 'cos that's the
    kind of guy I am.  Having met her I have to say I liked her cats Yin
    and Yang, because ....... :-).  Now I am wondering if she really does
    exist or not ?  Was it a nightmare ?   Well as the saying goes the mice
    will play while the cat is away. 
    
    Can the types of nightmares and dreams tell us anything ?  I have seen
    the other dream notes in here but was not too sure that the notes
    existed as I could have been dreaming !!!!
    
    Regards,

    I did not realise that appearing in nightmares was part of the duties
    of a moderator of this conference.

    I've met Cindy Painter and she more than merely exists.  She radiates.

    Cindy exists and radiates but then that has always been her style.
    The globe trotting Cindy Painter plane of existence (re .1) is more 
    likely a Boeing 747 as domestic U.S. carriers no longer use the DC-8
    for passenger service.  The DC-8 is still used by some to ship cargo.

    As fate would have it I've had a couple of (DC-8)
    nightmares about Cindy myself....no use telling her about them.

    I know that Cindy radiates. I have felt and seen that radiation.
    However, this in no way proves her existience. I believe that Yin and
    Yang exist and have even cared for them during one of Cindy's visits to
    another plane of existence (via a 747, I'm sure. Sorry, DC-8 was the
    first plane I could think of, I don't travel frequently via plane. last
    time was in 1986)
    
    In the meantime, I would never categorize any dream that Cindy appears
    in as a nightmare. It's usually a message of some sort, again, neither
    proving, nor disproving Cindy's existence. I'm not sure Descartes could
    prove it. 
    
    Hey if this is a nightmare and a nightmare is a horse and it's cart is
    upset, is that putting Descated before the horse. (Sorry, old pun, but
    I couldn't resist.)

2093.9More Deep Thoughts....PKHUB2::MROPRTTue Jan 09 1996 16:0912
    
    	If when, a plane goes Down Under,
    	Does one's ying and yang go blunder?
    
    	One moment, your ying is a movie watching,
    	Then, next, your yang is desparately clutching!
    
    	Which brings up the endless, timworn question,
    	Not, the chicken or egg first, selection!
    
    	But..Cindy, alone in the forest...we poise,
    	If she fell down...Would she make a noise?

    Hi John and PJ,

    >Cindy exists and radiates but then that has always been her style.

    Well after reading this notes string Cindy if she really does exit will
    hopeful have a laugh, you could say get a warm welcome.

    If she does feel warm.  Is it because she is radiating/suffering from
    some kind of nuclear contamination ?  Or because she is blushing ? Or
    fuming at us ?  If she doesn't exist except in hyper space then you
    could call it a virtual blush :-). Does her radiation have anything to
    do with Nine Mile Island ?

    I think she is due back soon, that is if she really does exist.  Maybe
    she has gone on a virtual holiday !!!!
    
    If you are really there Cindy welcome back and don't throw darts at my
    photo's :-).

    G'day Sunil,
    
    Welcome to my nightmare...hehhehheh...  Now where are those darts?
    
    Thanks for brekkie at the Sydney airport, ol' sport!   Nice to see
    you again!  Wish it were for more than a couple of hours, but I 
    predict I'll probably be back to visit OZ again within the next year 
    or so and will haunt you for a bit longer then.

    I notice that Cindy still hasn't verified her existence on this, or any
    other plane, or her lack of existence. I suppose the real truth is
    something we will never truly know or understand. It will probably be
    something that millenia from now, will be thought of as the truth or
    falseness of the Cindy-being's existence is something each seeker or
    acolyte will have to determine in her/his own heart and soul. 
    
    Bright Blessings,
    
    PJ(Who has never claimed any sort of existence either)

    Knew I shouldn'ta brought that package of stuff for you from Bangkok,
    PJ.  Even I couldn't follow that note!  (;^) 
    
    Cindy
2093.15WMOIS::CONNELLStory does that to us.Tue Jan 16 1996 17:0613
    Yeah, sometimes I write notes and just absolutely "know" that all the
    spelling and grammar is correct and then later, I go. HUH? What the
    heck did I say. Two sentences ran together and a word or two is
    missing.
    
    As for mysterious shipments from Bangkok, when it's done. Then they'll
    be some crazy noting.
    
    Anyway, very happy that you have returned to us safely. 
    
    Bright Blessings,

    Oh no, PJ - I just meant it was far to profound for the likes of me.
    
    Or that I should have partaken of some of the Bangkok package contents
    before reading it.  (;^)

    What profound? I just read to many comic books. :-) As for the Bangkok
    package, no excuses or reasons. Just go for it. :-)
