Kuru and Strange dreams.

[wolven7]

We're still under a boil-water advisory, here in DeKalb County, GA, USA. Far more of one, apparently, than was issued the last time a similar incident occurred.

I said-- I SAID it was Kuru, but did they listen? I said, "some queasy cannibal likely lost his lunch, during the power outage." Did you believe me?

No.

Well. Now they're sorry.

Tom Waits - [Hold On]--- Now they've got Kuru.

Anyway. I dreamed, last night, about a strange combination of African tribal marriages, and the Atreides/Harkonnen Rivalries, from Dune. A man and a woman, through time, and circumstance, given the ability to see motivations and know circumstantial pressures that caused the other to have to do what they did, marry who they did, kill who they did, and it allows them to change things, to be better to each other, later. The tribal camp is a walled fortress, but also my childhood home, and also a very large Aztec pyramid and temple.

Standing in and on the temple, there are spiders' webs,there are husks and shells, broken bones and bodies, everywhere. (Sxip - [Sombule]). The man and the woman stand there, talking, and there is a light, above, an opening, but somehow while the pyramid top, the ziggurat on which they are standing is older than the one above them, the one above is also older than the one on which they stand. They discuss the proper worship at his place, they talkand make plans, and understand each other, more clearly, now.

In a wide, gravel place, that looks like a train depot, or loading dock shipping yard, only there is no water, and there are no train tracks. (The Legendary Pink Dots - [Red Castles]). Sitting in a car, as people drive away with things, like three little old ladies with a piano sounding board, the size and shape of a harp. I sit as transactions take place.

Driving away from that place, or to it, in the dark. In a car with cailement driving, a Jeep, or a TrailBlazer, and her family is in the car, and she's not quiote paying attention where she's driving, and we almost drive into a very thinck bamboo forest. (Lyme & Cybelle - [Follow Me (Demo Version)]). We're driving too fast, and the front end is pointed too far down, as we go up a steep hill, and we're worried about flipping over. I get a text message from my uncle, whisch is also a voicemail, saying that he's sorry he missed me, but that he'll try to call again, soon.

Screamin' Jay Hawkins - [Darling, Please Forgive Me]--- Very strange. I'm sure there was more, in there, but I can't seem to find it.

Björk - [Pluto]--- Time to go do the ridiculous things I need to do in order to eat breakfast, in a safe manner.

Kuru often goes undetected for long periods of time *nods*
