Dreams
Categories : Personal, Politics |
Had a couple of dreams last night which I still remember. The first was that it was this weekend, post the election in NSW in which not surprisingly Labor had won. What was odd was that a Federal election had been also held, and we were waking up on Sunday to our new Prime Minister Kevin Rudd. I don’t know if my dreams are prophetic, but at the moment it’s looking increasingly like that one will come to pass. Rudd’s latest move, by abandoning his opposition to the sale of Telstra and promising a huge investment in high speed broadband access, is a huge potential vote winner. Hopefully the coalition will try to match or beat it and we will finally end up with decent internet no matter which side wins … which at the moment, unless Howard can find a rabbit to pull out of his hat, looks like it will be Rudd…
The other dream I had was less topical, but probably more weird. I was at a huge mega-multiplex cinema with my family. Firstly Owen and I were playing in the foyer on one of those 20 cent games (you know where the 20c coins slide of the edge of a moving platform and you drop in new coins to try and push them over – I love those games) and we had won so many coins we had to get an empty large drink cup to hold them all. Then we went to the counter to buy our tickets, but then some bad guy was chasing us and we had to run all the way to our cinema to get away from him. Luckily we escaped him and got into cinema number 43 before the movie started, still managing to retain the big cup full of 20 cent coins. And it was a really massive cinema too, considering they had at least 45 there! But that’s all I remember. Weird?
