way to go, convenient natural disaster.
I had a dream where I was doin' this chick, right? That's about it.

My family and I were on vacation visiting some relatives who had the coolest house. It was basically a ranch, except they had lions, tigers, rhinos and maybe some large hiyeena looking things running around. They were all well trained so we were running around with them having fun. At some point I got hurt really bad, but not by the animals though because I don't think we were at the house when I got injured. Anyways, I asked the people around me if I was ok and everyone said I was fine. That night I woke up coughing blood and there was a huge chunk of something in it. My first thought was that I was coughing up parts of my brain (lol, I love my mind), but it turned out to be what looked like a vertebra. I went to the bathroom and in the mirror I could see a huge open gash in the back of my neck and a hole where this vertebra should've been. So I shoved it back into place like a lego piece and went about my day, albeit more cautiously. I remember being afraid to play with the animals, or atleast I was more timid around them. Later on that day my older sister was talking to me about how we were leaving soon and she was complaining about how long the trip would take. I stayed very quiet and just frowned mostly. Finally my sister asked what was wrong so I showed her my wound. To my surprise she wasn't concerned at all, like it was just a scratch. I remember hearing her peel back the skin and looking at the bone, taking it out and then putting it back. As it slid back into place it made this squishy sound that still makes me cringe when I think about it. She said she had several bones that she had to put back in place and that it wasn't a big deal, so we just went about our day.
What a strange and creepy dream! It seemed so real too. I had to rub my neck several times this morning for sanity's sake. Luckily all of my vertebrae are still intact. The animals kind of make sense because I went to Lion country safari over xmas break and saw some lions, rhinos and hiyeenas, but why the gruesome injury? It was so vivid and gory. If I have a couple more of these dreams I'm going to make a movie.

So I'm hanging out at this cabin in the woods up in the hills somewhere and President Obama is going around telling people what their jobs are going to be. John McCain is just kind of walking around cursing under his breath. So the president comes over to me and is like OK you're going to run the Department of Foreign Affairs. I'm like alright sir I'll do what I can, but I'm thinking to myself I don't have much foreign policy experience and I'd probably be better suited for something domestic. But anyways he's like alright great, buddy. Everyone leaves and I stay and just lie on the picnic table and am thinking well I don't want to quit my job so I guess I'll do the appointment part-time. And I'm like, man, that's probably a six figure salary with that appointment. Plus my regular salary, I'm going to be rolling in it. And my dad is there so I ask him if I'll be the youngest Secretary of State ever. He's like no, you're running the Dept. of Foreign Affairs and I'm like, oh yeah. So we start riding home and I'm in the back seat and really thirsty so I down a can of beer really quick. And then I wake up and hear Rachel leaving.
man when i saw that drew had posted in the dream thread, i thought for sure we were in for a psychedelic ride through the scariest surreal landscape of sleep deprivation combined with red meat consumption. next time try to work in some 3 headed elephants with swingsets for insides, ok?
on second thought, maybe that's actually what drew dreamt, but by the time his conscious mind was able to put it back together, we got Obama and beer.

i had a dream last night involving clint eastwood as the mysterious stranger in a far east town, and there was some screaming and 'oh dang' the monster is coming. so we get in the house and the monster is about to mess us up. it's a big cloud of black and screaming and it morph's into this green more humanish form and clint walks up and things go into slo mo where he wait's until right when the beast's heart is still between beats and he punches it in the apex and it blows the f up.
i really think my subconscious wants to write movies.

you sure this didn't just actually happen?
oh, commotio cordis is real alright, and awesome/tragic
Using the same principal, people have been using precordial thumps for years to try to reset disrupted heart rhythms. It's more popular in other parts of the world than the US ("Chest punching? What barbarism").
However, the heart doesn't "blow up" in commotio cordis. The blow stretches mechanosensitive ion channels in the pacemaking cells of the heart, changing their natural rhythmic and conductive properties. It's rare because there's only one particular part (QT interval) of the heart's cycle that is vulnerable.
There are a few conditions (e.g. long QT syndrome) that make people more susceptible. These same conditions also predispose to being "scared to death."

Clearly your heart would explode if it was punched by the likes of clint Eastwood or chuck Norris. But that makes me wonder: could one of those infamous characters commit suicide by explosive commotio cortis (henceforth dubbed ECC)? OMG ECC WMC.mpeg! OTIBT? IDB! ROFLberry PWNcakes!
Last night me and Megan Fox were dating. So that was cool. Also, she was rich, and not just movie star rich. Like she owns some banks rich. We spent the day working at the soup kitchen and she was right there in it, getting messy and everything. That was pretty hot. After that we had to go to Ted Turner's bank to do some important financial stuff. Old Ted was actually a nice guy, except he thought I was in the Air Force. Whatever Ted, take care. Our plans for the evening were to go to this big fancy dance. I was looking good and she was looking almost as good. We caught a ride with one of my friends from high school in her station wagon. Megan and I just piled into the back. But the station wagon started rolling off with no one driving. So I'm climbing forward to grab the wheel to try and steer. We're about to crash but I'm about to grab the wheel. I woke up then. I was pretty sure I was going to make it, and if the evening had continued along its course I'm pretty sure I was going to get some. But I guess what I'm trying to say is, I admire her commitment to community service.
Probably should give her a call.

Dreamt I was working at Sam Ash again and I had a interview for a job I was actually interested in, but it was daylight savings and I couldn't figure out whether or not I was late for the interview. Got woke up by the doorbell. Good thing cause that sucked.
I dozed off while I was studying in my bed when I heard the "OMG someone just opened a door or window!" sound. So I tried to get up to check but I couldn't move!
I try to move my arm but it won't budge. I try to open my eye lids but they won't budge either. I'm laying in the same position I was in when I fell asleep, so I think to myself: "Arif, this just a dream. On the count of three, move! One..two..three!" Voila! I can move again. I check the time on my laptop and it's 5:18. So I look out the window and I see matt in the driveway pulling into my usual spot (left side of the garage). I think to myself "hmm, he's home early, maybe he thinks I'm not home yet." After a few seconds the realization that my car is there sinks in, but disappointment quickly dissolves into anger as Matt shakes his fist at my window in the "damn you" manner. So he backs up, turns left and parks on the grass! I immediately think to make a poster that says "F U" but I can't find anything large enough to write on. So I decide that I'll hide and pretend i'm not home and later on i'll sneak out of my window (since it doesn't make the "OMG" sound) and move matt's car or something. Unfortunately Matt was already walking down the stairs and saw me scheming in my room. He says "Hey" and walks to my window, I guess to make sure I could see his car, haha. So i'm like "Fuck you, haha. You know you're going to kill the grass where you parked"
That's when I woke up. It was only 2:30, w00t! But then i'm like "oh shit, did the 'OMG' sound really go off?" So I looked out the window and matt wasn't parked in the grass or anywhere, and no one else was in the house. Hooray for afternoon nap premonitions! I have poster paper ready this time Matt, so it's on! haha

afternoon nap dreams are the best. my most fucked up dreams occur during those 30 min naps between classes.
Couple of odd dreams last night. All of my dreams never seem to have an ending like most people I assume. They just kinda fade away and even now just a few hours later I am having trouble remembering what they were about. I need to keep a pen and paper next to me to write it down right when I wake up.
The first dream was set in Macon and all I can recall is that my family was hosting a girl from some Islamic country since she was wearing a hajib. I was supposed to show her around town, and I was trying to remember what rules I had to follow so that I wouldn't be breaking any customs. I remember thinking that I couldn't be in the same room with her if it just the two of us.
The second dream was probably the strangest. It basically involved me in this house with a vampire and her two children. The dream had kinda an Xmen feel to it because I am pretty sure the mom vampire was Halle Berry. All I remember was trying to avoid this chick because if she bit me I would then be a vampire. However, I also knew if I was a vampire that I would better looking and very fast.
The last dream I had probably in the last few minutes before I woke up. Me and Kristine were walking down the street and we ran into none other than Jerre Carter walking her 3 dogs. There was also a man with her but I didn't get a good look at his face. I asked her kind of dogs she had and I only remember that one of them was a golden retriever.
Can't really find a pattern to these dreams except that they all involved women.

I think the meaning is obvious: your subconscious is trying to warn you that all women are really blood sucking dogs from the Middle East.
I had a dream a few days ago where I was playing a live version of Halo with Steph and V. Steph and V were on one team (maybe orange or red) and I was on the other (blue or green). The teams had different style uniforms, but some how I was had the ability to disguise myself as the enemy, only my uniform was now yellow. So after the round started I hid around a corner and started attacking Steph, haha. She was so confused and wouldn't fire back. I thought to myself "Come on, no one was yellow at the beginning of round, obviously i'm a bad guy" but she never figured it out. So just before I killed her I took off my helmet, but she was cowering in the corner not looking up. So I bent over and took her helmet off and she looked up confused and somewhat annoyed, but relieved that she didn't get pwnt by her own teammate. Then we started making out and made our way to this bed that happened to be around the corner when I woke up.
Haha, coolest dream I've had in a long time! lol

i had a dream that in the middle of the night things just started exploding. everyone woke up to the ground shaking and buildings on fire. then after the omgwtf is going on, i turned back towards my house and look up in the sky. jupiter was on a collision course with earth and was so close it took up half the sky, and you couldnt even see the whole thing. the red spot was easily half of what you could see, and looked like a giant red eye staring at you. then it started shooting giant balls of flaming plasma towards earth, which was what was causing everything to explode.
it was such a vivid dream, everything was in color, especially the bright colors of jupiter in the blackest of black sky.
