Is Jim real, or is he like that one kid that moved away (what was his name again? He was like a thing on here for awhile) who we don't know if he actually existed?Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑30 Nov 2022, 11:13amShe hungers.

Re: Thread of Dreams
Jim's real. Kind of inspirational story. Grew up in a working-class, single mom family, and as the oldest he kind of ended up the de factor dad for his siblings. Had part-time jobs and gutted his way thru school, then after graduation he went to work in the oil patch in Alberta. He was smart enough to know that that kind of work uses up young guys' bodies in a hurry, so he saved his money and started up a couple businesses. He told me he sold them maybe ten years ago and retired a multi-millionaire. Unfortunately, living in Alberta he's full-on Trudeau-is-the-devil lunacy, but I can't help but be proud of what he made of himself given his starting point. I haven't spoken to him in about seven years and I imagine he'd think I'm some kind of Commie, so it's best we don't keep in touch.JennyB wrote: ↑30 Nov 2022, 1:02pmIs Jim real, or is he like that one kid that moved away (what was his name again?

Re: Thread of Dreams
Oh no, don't apologize! He certainly had a rough life and an abbreviated one at that, but I'm glad that so many people enjoy those stories I told about him. We achieve immortality by passing on our genes and/or by people telling stories about us after we're gone. We're doing our part via the latter route.JennyB wrote: ↑30 Nov 2022, 3:58pmOh, shit.

Something to do with a freight elevator that wasn't working and trying to solve quadratic equations (something I haven't had to do since around grade ten).

Re: Thread of Dreams
Only a partial recollection, but it's fucking bizarre. I've mentioned before a former friend—father of Tristan the bullied/bully—but he stole a car towing a trailer, and he pulled up in front of our house then did a kind of doughnut maneuver that snapped the trailer off, then sped away, returning with more trailers. The main thing that sticks out is the sparks when the trailer hitch snapped off.

Re: Thread of Dreams
I had a seriously dystopian dream, and it played out in 3 parts, where I woke up between parts 1 and 2 and again between 2 and 3. I dont recall this ever happening before, I was sure I would remember it but I dont. I woke up at one point punching and kicking. Luckily while facing away from my wife.
