Susan #43:

I had one dream like that over 25 years ago. I dreamt I was on an airliner, a wide body model of some kind, seated in the center row. It was at night. Suddenly the No.4 engine went out with a burst of flame and the airplane stalled and entered what clearly was a spin. I was sitting there as we went down saying “Get the nose down! Get some airspeed! Then get us out of the spin!”

Odd dream, like no other.

Then a week or so later a guy I worked with said “Hey, did you hear about that 747? They lost an engine, stalled and went into a spin.”

LifeoftheMind: Glad to hear your canine companion is doing well. Back 9 years ago my Lab was looking poorly. She had a limp, and a lump on her bottom turned out to be cancer. But she was operated on twice and I started walking her every day, the walks getting longer and longer, and giving her glucosemine. She lived another 6 years, 6 great years, and passed away in my arms at just over 15 years of age.
