Psst - the Umpire? Clever...

I had a dream last night that I was a reporter for some large newspaper. There was a big hubbub because Joe Biden was giving a speech and I was there.

There wasn't much to see because the place was packed with journalists and gawkers, so my spirit was dwindling. I saw Biden waltz off-stage at the end of his bit, though, and thought that this was my moment to strike.

not a dreamboat

I jogged up to him and didn't see any Secret Service guys coming to pounce on me - my luck! Even at the time, I understood that the dream world had given me a gift and something zany was bound to happen.

So I asked him, "What about Russia?"

He said, "I dunno, they're kinda crazy."


I think I woke up out of anti-climactic disappointment.
