And let me start by saying that there is a LOT to consider here. Therefore, I will simply hit the high points, without going into too much detail. First of all, let me tell you what the various characters and items in your dream represent: Hometown – represents the place where you grew up USAF – represents a branch of the military service Paperwork error – represents mistakes made while filling out papers Dad – serves as a father figure Harley-Davidson T-shirt and fatigues – represents camouflaged and motorcycle clothing Flightline – represents two words being incorrectly merged into one by removing the space Female handler – represents a person to whom you report Fanantical tyrant – while there is no such word as “fanantical”, I believe this word hides another Power plant – represents a place where power is generated Small stature of men in community – represents short men in the area The john – represents a bathroom, most likely a public restroom As you can see, it is sometimes surprising what these different symbols represent, although I’m sure your brother would not be at all surprised. Anyway, it appears to me that you were dreaming about being back where you lived at an earlier time in your life and being in some sort of military setting, dressed in a totally inappropriate fashion and, not surprisingly, getting in trouble for it. It’s almost as though you dressed that way in order to get your father’s attention, while at the same time, hoping that the motorcycle t-shirt would make him think twice about messing with you. This, combined with the effect of making it look as though you were floating above the ground, without any legs (due to the camouflaged pants) demonstrates that you are confident in this approach, since your father drove you to where you would be disciplined instead of giving you a richly-deserved beating himself. While you would like to think that the paperwork was responsible for your situation, in all likelihood it was YOU who filled it out incorrectly, perhaps by misspelling some of the words. This is evident from your use of the words “flightline” and “fanantical”. The space is removed from “flight line”, disguised as the letter “n” and then placed in the word “fanatical”. That gives you justification for the incorrect words. It’s as though you are saying: “See—all the letters are there. One of them just got mixed up and misplaced”. Obviously, you knew, eventually, someone would actually read the paperwork and would naturally assume that “flightline” was a misspelling of “fligatini”, a little-know Italian noodle, and “fanantical” was that feeling you get when you get goose bumps from a fan blowing on you, known as “fan tickle”. It’s almost as though you were setting yourself up to be recalled to active duty, and subsequently disciplined. You knew there would be questions. After all, why would you be eating pasta in front of a fan? That would make it cool down too quickly! No wonder you were recalled—they’d have to get an answer to that question! But if they’d had any training, they would have known why. It’s because in childhood, your parents made you eat pasta when you didn’t want too. You probably told them it was too cold to eat to try and get out of eating it, and it probably worked. But YOU knew that was wrong and now it is coming back to haunt you. The female handler is there because your mother wound up having to be the disciplinarian, either because your father was so easily fooled by your tricks or because he though you were weird. The tyrant is reminiscent of the boogie men your mother used to threaten you when you wouldn’t obey. The power plant shows the power struggle between you and your mother. As for the small men, this has a double meaning. First, it reflects the tendency of your mother (the female handler) to build you up beyond your actual capabilities; secondly you apparently feel you are too tall. Why else would your camouflaged disguise make you look like you were only half there? Finally, the dream ended in the john because after having to deal with all the above in a single dream, you just wanted to get rid of all that crap, as further evidenced by the fact that you referred to yourself as “an old poop”. Well, it apparently worked, because you woke up. However, it is unclear if you actually resolved these issues or not, because you don’t remember whether or not you used the john. So, in a nutshell, that’s it. I’m sure your brother’s interpretation, while it might differ in a few minor details, would be essentially the same. Per your request, here’s my interpretation of your dream. And let me start by saying that there is a LOT to consider here. Therefore, I will simply hit the high points, without going into too much detail.
First of all, let me tell you what the various characters and items in your dream represent:
Hometown – represents the place where you grew up
USAF – represents a branch of the military service
Paperwork error – represents mistakes made while filling
out papers
Dad – serves as a father figure
Harley-Davidson T-shirt and fatigues – represents
camouflaged and motorcycle clothing
Flightline – represents two words being incorrectly merged
into one by removing the space
Female handler – represents a person to whom you report
Fanantical tyrant – while there is no such word as
“fanantical”, I believe this word hides another
Power plant – represents a place where power is generated
Small stature of men in community – represents short men in
the area
The john – represents a bathroom, most likely a public
restroom
As you can see, it is sometimes surprising what these different symbols represent, although I’m sure your brother would not be at all surprised.
Anyway, it appears to me that you were dreaming about being back where you lived at an earlier time in your life and being in some sort of military setting, dressed in a totally inappropriate fashion and, not surprisingly, getting in trouble for it.

Either that, or they go somewhere and do it privately. Having had cats for over 40 years, I can attest to this. Regarding your missive on “Why Dogs Fart”, I would say stick with cats–they don’t fart.

I have given myself a severe flogging for the aforementioned transgression of ignorance. BTW, is it flagellation or flatuletion. I often get the two mixed up. It can make things uncomfortable when company drops in. Don't bother to tell me that there is not such a word. I know that. I surrender!

Joe Mama Betcha, the groundhog whose birthday is today, says that in Illinois we will have an early Spring, albeit a somewhat stormy one...

I think we need to agree to agree. First of all, what is a century? I looked up that word in the dictionary, but couldn't find it. Secondly, while it is true that there was no year zero (which, as you know, is why Y2K was not the start of the century, and, as you also know, why the 20th century is so-called because it ends at the end of the year 2000), decades are treated differently. We don't refer to the "first decade" or the "second decade", but, as I pointed out previously, "the 20's" or "the 30's". As a reference, here is something from Wikipedia: "Although any period of ten years is a decade, a convenient and frequently referenced interval is based on the tens digit of the calendar year, as in using 1960s to represent the decade from 1960 to 1969. Often, for brevity, only the tens part is mentioned (60s or sixties), although this may leave it uncertain which century is meant. These references are frequently used to encapsulate pop culture or other widespread phenomena that dominated such a decade, as in The Great Depression of the 1930s." I will be glad to cite many more references, if you like--articles like "12 things that became obsolete this decade", "The 20th Century, Decade by Decade", or even this reference in the Free Online Dictionary: "a period of ten years the first decade of this century (= 1900–09)". Just let me know! Sorry, Hugh, I’m not ready to do that… I think we need to agree to agree.

We don’t refer to the “first decade” or the “second decade”, but, as I pointed out previously, “the 20′s” or “the 30′s”. As a reference, here is something from Wikipedia: “Although any period of ten years is a decade, a convenient and frequently referenced interval is based on the tens digit of the calendar year, as in using 1960s to represent the decade from 1960 to 1969.
