<description>Last night I had a dream that began with me showing students what was wrong with postmodern architecture. Across the street from where we stood there was a building with a particularly irritating postmodern detail. I ran toward this building pointing at this detail and denouncing it. Suddenly, in the middle of the street, a milk truck (much like the one that killed Roland Barthes) ran over my legs, parting them at the knees. But because I lived in the future in this dream world, the missing lower half of my legs, from the knees down, where quickly and painlessly...</description>

<title>Comment by Dobbs</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Curiously, the night before your dream, I watched the movie, Murderball, about a group of quadriplegic rugby players, one of whom did not have any legs at all. I believe that one of them was hit by a truck...,  but I doubt he was looking at architecture. In one of the scenes from the movie, the legless man hides inside a box, where he plays a trick on a woman by surprising her.</p>

<p>I would like to continue the analysis of the dream as though it was my own. Now before checking out the movie at the Bellevue Regional Library, I suddenly came across a book in the aisles about Malevich, a suprematist artist recently mentioned by Charles on the Stranger Blog. I flipped through the book, impressed. But what most impressed me was that one of his artworks had made the cover of a novel I recently read by Bulgakov, The Master and Margarita. I decided to read on the page about how it was intened to portray the prison of reason, or something to that effect.</p>

<p>This takes me back to a comment I wrote on Mudede's post on Malevich, in which I essentially wrote that writing can have a possibly corrupting, derailing effect.</p>

<p>The interpretation of the dream, therefore, if had been mine, would indicate the guilt I may be feeling towards possibly corrupting people with my foul writing. Indeed, it was only yesterday that I deleted almost all my writing on the internet.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>neither lying OR fun making.  I swear.  I share a bed with a frequent reader of SLOG and if he cares to back me up, he can do so now.  I woke up talking to him about the dream.  The surgeon was cute and gave me good pain killers, so that kept this from being a nightmare.  BUT IT'S TRUE!!!</p>]]></description>
