I was about to complain that I didn't have any interesting BD dream for a long time, and tonight it came. I had a dream that there was a presidental election at the Downs, and in the end there were three possible candidates: Nerwen, Aganzir and Lommy. When thinking about my vote, I presumed that Nerwen is not going to get enough support from others, so voting her would have been a waste of vote. I decided to vote for Lommy.
I may also add that the voting process was somewhat nontypical: the candidates did not have any speeches or presentations or anything like that, instead, if a voter chose to vote for someone, there was time reserved for every candidate when she was sitting alone in what was in fact a class room in the high school I used to attend, and each voter could come in and tell the candidate why they decided to vote her.

I think it's quite cool that you voted me - just as long as you make sure you don't do it in ww.
![]() I had an odd dream and it featured some 'downers, unfortunately I can't remember whom. Volo was there certainly, though: I was travelling with him in some odd country and he did some crime and was sentenced to receive ten lashes. He was terribly afraid of it and all I could think of saying to comfort him was: "You don't die of it." (Might tell something of my presumed social skills... ) Then for the rest of dream I wandered around the weird country, trying to find Volo a lawyer and he followed me wailing and walking like a zombie and not being of any assistance at all.Maybe I'm a bit sadistic, but now afterwards that dream actually amuses me...

Hey Legate, was Hookbill the Goomba there to cover the election process?

I might have had a dream in which DWII had already started and I hadn't signed in. Aganzir was modding it and Day3 was going on. For some reason the roles hadn't been given yet but the family chart had been made. Aganzir told me that I could and should join, but I wondered if joining so late was legal. I decided it was and joined.

I had a COOL dream the other night...
My brother and I were in his car and driving along the motorway going home. We noticed that all the cars were driving quite fast and people were screaming. Looking out of the back window I saw, far away in the distance, a HUGE Dragon curled up and sleeping. My brother drove faster and we got to the top of Parbold Hill (the hill near my house). We saw that the Dragon was now moving and wandering aimlessly around the countryside. When we got home Legate and Rune were in the kitchen and pulling lots of tea-pots out of the dishwasher and laughing. "Don't you know there's a Dragon out there?" I asked, and Rune started crying. Then Lommy ran into my house and locked the door. "It's heading for the zoo!" she cried, "We need to save the Penguins! It's after them!" But as I looked out of the window I saw the Dragon's foot step through my neighbour's house. The Dragon looked rather bemused and began shuffling forward. So we all hid under the table. Like you do. The Dragon destroyed half of my house and then wandered on. Legate complained that all the tea pots were now broken. Rune wore a horned helmet and was very angry about it. Lommy was still trying to get us to go to the zoo but no one seemed to care that I now had only half a house.

Last night Gandalf and I visited Professor and Mrs. Tolkien, who live (apparently) in a hobbit hole. Mrs. Tolkien made me a fruit slushy, and Professor Tolkien offered me tea.

![]() Did you know West Lancs is one of the places rumoured to be Arthur's resting place and the Douglas is a magical river which runs out of Martin Mere which was supposed to be where the lady of the lake lived? Therefore Lancelot is a Lancastrian - and aren't there links from Lancelot to Dragons?

Plus it wouldn't matter anyway as The Phantom would no doubt coup the whole thing sooner or later.
