| ...I entered the armed forces. Twelve days before, President John F. Kennedy had been assassinated, on the 22nd of November, 1963.
Good Lord, where does the time go...<sigh> | |

| There were a few, but bad memories 'fog over' after 46 years...
The worst one was a recurring nightmare after I'd returned from 'Nam. Had the nightmare monthly or so for most of 20-25 years, then it just stopped. I worked in an Army control tower (I was Air Force), and the Viet Cong used to pass by from somewhere, going somewhere else, and, for practice, used the roughly hundred-foot high all-timber tower as a target for mortaring the compound. My nightmare was that the Cong actually hit the tower, and as it fell over, I went with it...couldn't escape. Never did hit the ground in the nightmare. Guess I'd have died in my sleep had that happened... | |

| With nowhere to run in a dream it can be quite terrifying so it must be great now they have stopped m8. I once drove double decker buses for a living and I sometimes get a dream were I get up from the drivers seat and go upstairs to collect the fares from the passengers while the bus is still moving... I must be great at this as I haven't crashed or lost a passenger yet but I wake up in a sweat! Does anyone else get strange reoccurring dreams? | |

| A couple times a year (on average, more or less), I dream that I stow away on an airliner (but it's legal). Since I've missed the flight, I crawl up into one of the wheel-wells. As the plane gets airborn, guess what happens? You got it; the landing gear doors start closing. Before I'm crushed to death, I awake... Been having this dream for more than 40 years! I guess if the doors ever do close, I won't wake up...who knows? | |

| He he you little rascal!!! Even if the landing gear doors stayed open in real life you would most likely die anyway, but dreams are so strange with the bazaar & weird scenarios who knows what could really happen in them. Maybe you would find a stairway to the first class area!!! | |
