This morning Abby and I slept in, and as the morning went by, I found myself dreaming rather extensively about Jorja<\/span> Fox<\/a>, the actress who played Sarah Sidle on CBS’s<\/span> CSI<\/span><\/a> for seven seasons. Abby was disappointed to see the actress and the character leave the show, and with the departure of two additional core characters (Gil Grissom<\/span> and Warrick<\/span> Brown [presumably]), she and I believe the show may have jumped the shark<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Anyway, in the dream I am apparently on the CSI<\/span> team along with Sarah, and we have gone underground, literally, intending to blow up a casino. She reassures me, however, that it’s okay, since we own it. She prepares her explosives, which are created by mixing a critical<\/span> mass of dog food in seven large dog food bowls in the stairs to the basement we are using as shelter (this may have been a result of my reading on Wikipedia<\/span> about a criticality<\/span> accident<\/a> that occurred in 1945). She tells us that when she puts on the last handful of dog food, we need to run as fast as we can down the underground hall.<\/p>\n
