Lately, when I dream, my brain has been spewing lies and passing them off as truth.

Last night I had a dream that was in a documentary format (think old school history channel). It was about the B29. Evidently the bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima came from a carrier in the Pacific. This carrier did not fly the American flag for fear of being recognized. The crew did not like this so the captain decided to hoist the flag.

When the B29 took off from the carrier, it climbed too fast, stalled, and slid backwards until it somehow gained enough momentum and flew onward. According to the narrator, we were so close to having a failed mission because the pilot made an error.

It was so freaking believable, and I *knew* it was wrong... woke up and committed this to memory. I have no idea how many other dreams I had that just confuse my memory of events. I am sure it is a mixture of the Doolittle raid and the B29 drop.

Do you guys experience this too, cause it is starting to annoy me.

I'm fighting a sinus infection, so I'm having all kinds of weird, vivid dreams. Last night I dreamed:

I bought a new coat. But instead of it being black and warm it was red and skimpy. I was pissed because it was the only coat I was going to have.

There was no half and half for my coffee. Only raspberry creamer and this made me very upset.

I bought pants. No idea why I bought pants or where but I did dream it.


I'm sure there were a ton more that I don't remember. All very real and all very stupid. After I get over the plague, I'll go back to not remembering any of my dreams.

Pfft, its not like he landed the B29 on the carrier ;)

I don't think the wings would clear the conning tower.

Maybe they strapped a few V2s to the B29, and somehow managed to fold the wings, and kept them folded until after it cleared the deck?

:p

It was the top secret super carrier that the public never knew about. CVN-69 USS Longdong
