I Dream Of Racecars
You know how the web is: You look for something, you end up finding something else.
I forget what I was looking for. I think it was a famous sculpture park on the Isle of Man, but I can’t be sure, and I’d rather write this than re-research it. But I found this picture:
Which immediately reminded me of a recurring theme in many dreams of past decades: Being in a car that was on a roller-coaster track, or being in a car that was on a platform held up by cables much like this.
The sculpture is full-sized, by the way. Those are real cars.
Sometimes my real world and my dream worlds collide in ways I never thought possible. Something’s down there, trying to send me a message.
Which leads me to my ‘public good’ theory for the Second Life proposal. But I need to refine it before talking in public.

that is a remarkable sculpture and picture.
aha: you beat me to it… “the public good is enhanced by {-a certain percentage of-)} souls busily experimenting, in a risk-free environment, with fanciful constructions, some of which may find utility in Real Life”// And there IS a secret unseen hand which guides the web-surfer towards, if not ‘what he wants’, then at least ‘what he needs’. (yeah.. “but if you try sometimes”, i think that’s in there too, sorry Mick
..my RACECAR keeps shifting into reverse; I made sure it’s parked on LEVEL ground, replaced the brake ROTOR, nothing seems to help.
An image of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge popped into my mind
