I don't usually remember my dreams, nor am I in the habit (as far as I know), of dreaming a television show. But last night, I dreamed I was watching a brand-new G.I. Joe cartoon.

The storyline involved several G.I. Joes, including Clutch, Lifeline, and Roadblock, being trapped in a building by Cobra forces. Also trapped with them were a family and a building security guard, who was really Zartan in disguise, although he was just as worried as the Joes, since the Cobras outside didn't know he was Zartan, so he was maintaining his cover.

The only way out was -- and here's where it really got weird -- for Clutch to activate a "time field" that would send the entire group into the future. Unfortunately, Clutch overshot, and they ended up a lot further into the future than they expected.

They discovered that they were in the same building, but it was a lot more dilapidated, of course, and that Cobra was nowhere to be found. In fact, as they continued to investigate, it appeared as though Cobra didn't even exist anymore. The group was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when they were confronted by -- SKAR agents.

Then I woke up. :-/ :roll:

This was very odd. The cartoon had a quirky animation style that was actually closer to G.I. Joe Extreme, even though I barely watched that show when it first aired, and haven't seen it in a very long time. The SKAR agents would tend to indicate that this was some sort of crossover? This is still surprising, given that I don't exactly have a very positive opinion of G.I. Joe Extreme.

Not really sure what to make of it all, except that perhaps given the lack of much of anything G.I. Joe-related these days, except for Larry Hama's excellent comic book from IDW and a handful of figures from the Club, I'm starting to make stuff up in my subconscious. 8-O

Yeah, so far, no luck on that. And the dream I had last night makes me wonder if I need to change my diet a bit... 8-O :-P :-/

I've read things about how you can make yourself dream what you want. Mantras and repetition and stuff.

I've tried one of the ways before, but I don't think I did it right.

I've heard of something called "lucid dreaming", but it wasn't like it came with an instruction manual.

Typically, I don't even remember my dreams, and the handful that I do tend to be the nasty weird ones. This was an exception.

Lucid dreaming is a rare occurrence in which you are aware that you are dreaming, and can control the dream.

What I'm talking about is "programming the dream" so to speak, like before bed you repeat a phrase, or concentrate really hard on what you want to dream about, things like that.


Take up writing, and pitch it to somebody. (Or make a ill-conceived and poorly written Kickstarter about it. Ha ha, remember him?)

I've had a few dreams (that I recall) where I was aware of the fact that I was dreaming, if only because I knew that something in the dream was an impossibility (i.e. my parents alive in a present-day dream), but I've never been able to do anything about it within the dream.

Of course, the really annoying ones are the handful of really cool dreams that I remember -- hey, all-expenses month-long trip to Disney World -- hey, I find a stash of production-level G.I. Joes of figures that no one had ever heard of before -- and then just as it gets going... I wake up.

I've lost a couple of decent alarm clocks that way...
