My weird dream

Filed under: — Aprille @ 9:02 am

Last night I dreamed I was going to a play in small-town Iowa that Denny’s little cousins were in. As I sat down (I think it was a barn with chairs set up in it), and old Russian man turned to me and said (imagine this in an old-man Russian accent), “Do you believe that 2001: A Space Odyssey is an anti-technology film?”

I replied, “Well, yes, that is a popular interpretation.”

Then he started in on how amazing it is that bats have little human-like hands, and he thought that humans were evolving into bats. I told him no way; humans would have to be mating with bats for that to happen (I accidentally said that too loudly and sent titters throughout the audience), and besides, all kinds of apes have human-like hands, and nobody ever suggests that humans are evolving (devolving?) into apes.

When the alarm went off, I was disappointed, because I was really interested to see where that conversation was going.

One more thing: I’m currently advertising a position here at work that I need to fill. I got a résumé today that contained the following (see zoomed-in area). It cracked me up.

I don’t think we’ll probably hire the guy.
