Another Nice Dream - Used to be that I thought only little kids and royalty had dreams, but now I know better. In fact, I can call those dreams up on command. The other day, it was "my oil well." Today it is my little single-engine monoplane - the aircraft I use to go to the store when it is more than three miles distant from our house. We Texans and dreamers are weird. What you do when you get into a good dream like this one is that you set up a sensible routine and you follow it, step by step, until it comes to a proper conclusion - usually at the first light in the morning. You have to choose your aircraft carefully.. For this dream I chose to use my little silver-colored. single-engine, two-seater jobbie. Once you get through with making your selection you have to carefully do the pre-flight inspection, kind of like one of those flight controller guys with all of the switches and dials and engine stuff. But you don't have that much of a mess to get lost in. What you really want to do is to inspect the big stuff on your air buggy to make sure that the engine will not be falling out nor will the wings break off once you push the plane up off of the runway. Speaking of runways, you also need to keep a sharp lookout for those air hogs - the big guys with all of their jet engines. They try to bully us little folks around and keep the runways to themselves pretty much. When you get all done with this pre-flight messing around, you lower your voice so that it sounds like you know what you are doing and then you holler at the control tower - "N7083W ready for takeoff on Runway 3E - need clearance." Off we go. Be back again as soon as we get through with this nice dream. * * * * * * * * * * Collage pix from my Media Graphics CD * * * * * * * * * *
