I had a dream about becoming the CEO of Transmeta.
The people were bubbly and lively - acting like they still had a chance of staying employed. They spoke of Linus Torvalds as though it was a dark period in their existence. Maybe as one might relate to the Empire when the Sith ran things. I don’t know.
I remember the CEO’s office being quite huge. I don’t know why I was the CEO - I have no CEO experience. I did, somehow, have a degree. Perhaps I had the degree from a 17-month “Become a CEO!” program like I witnessed on the billboard the other day. Anyway - the office was a total disaster. It was as if the CEO was not only leaving the company, he was hauling ass out of there and taking any traces of wrongdoing with him. Note that I certainly do not mean to imply that Transmeta’s CEO is involved in anything - remember, this was a dream.
I remember thinking that I did not quite have the leadership skills required when one of the employees saw me unplugging one of the many 42″ plasma TV’s in the CEO’s office. He looked at me as though I had shot his dog. “I for one haven’t given up on this company!” he blurted. I shrugged and said I was merely trying to straighten up the office and this TV needed to be moved elsewhere. Rather than help me, he threw down a wad of papers and stormed out of the office. On the way out, he turned his head and locked his eyes on mine. His body turned right and kept moving, but his head stayed in the same position. It struck me that it was comically effeminate, but it didn’t bother me. I kept on with my business.
Weird, weird dream.

Dude, you really need to knock off the pizza before bed. After the sheep thing I thought you were a little crazy… but WOW.
Just kidding. You DO have crazy dreams. I’ve had meds do that to me. Not implying you’re on drugs!
