Its dark out, shouldn’t you be dreaming…… In your dream your IQ is in the top 2% and it’s the year 2020. You hop on a NASA spaceship to the moon. You weren’t crabby on the way because a they gave you Orpheus’s harp to play and they sent a male sheep to keep you company. On the way they ran a bunch of in flight movies but only 2 caught your attention. One was about a king who chains his daughter to a rock in order to appease the sea gods. The other was an educational film about the care of Dumbledore’s pet. Once you reach the moon you planted eight stars of gold on a field of blue. Just then the goddess of justice appeared and used her tools to send you out further into the stars to meet Romulus and Remus. They tell you that if you were born September 20th you will like your next stop, and not to tarry there too long because the star Sirius is your ultimate destination. As you reach for the treasure RRRRIIIINNGG your alarm clock goes off and ends the odd voyage. Man you shouldn’t have eaten all that spicy food before bed. It makes you have wacky dreams!
