<br />
am I dreaming right now? I have the strong sensation that as I am typing these words that I am being watched by a team of scientists that are drawing conclusions from my reactions to a clear divorce from reality. Who spiked my drink?<br />
<br />
I need more right now folks .. when I watched 'who killed roger rabbit' I understood fantasy .. now I need to know how fantasy somehow looks like it was made to look real .. did that actually get made in with approval / endorsement from the whitehouse????

      <![CDATA[Side note:  Why is Barney the star of all these videos?  What the fuck?  There's a glass ceiling even in the world of White House pets?  Why can't Miss Beasley do the decorating for once?  Is Barney gay?  Is that what they're trying to tell us?  I mean, obviously the only males who care about decorating are gay, right?<br />

      <![CDATA[That.  Was.  Amazing.<br />
<br />
I was like, why is Barney dreaming about sports victories?  Is it for the glory of the US?  That's weird.  Oh, I see, Phelps and Nastia are in the video...  so... they wanted to have some sort of reason why they were there, and so they thought, let's have the dog dream about being in the Olympics?  What?
