This is weird. Am I dreaming that I'm blogging what I'm dreaming about? Or am I blogging that I'm dreaming about what I'm blogging about?

This is what happens when you leave posts in the Blogerator: someone beats you to it (hat tip: skippy). Unlike certain famous* bloggers, whose initials are Kos, I don't like to purge live blogs. Instead, I've been inspired by skippy. I would like anyone who links to this blog, and to whom I don…
Well I arrived back in Michigan after a deep-fried Thanksgiving in Florida, hope you all had an as opulently greasy and delicious a meal as I did. I have to share a funny anecdote from my drive to the airport yesterday. My parents drove me to the Orlando airport, and we had to drive through the now…
Sadly, unlike his namesake, Orac is not immune to human foibles and human vulnerabilities. In particular he's not immune whatever virus is going around at the moment. The damned thing felled my wife for over a week. I thought that I had avoided it, but apparently not. Now I'm starting to feel the…
If I screamed every time I wanted to scream after reading something on the internet, I'd be so hoarse I wouldn't be able to scream about something I hadn't read on the internet. Like the Obama administration's loser mentality or the Republican Party as just plain losers with no mentality at all. So…
How about that? Fish happen to be the single most frequently recurring theme of my dreams as well, though they're of the freshwater persuasion. Must be a work-related injury.
No. Actually, I think that you're dreaming that you're dreaming what you're blogging about.

Those are not "nubile young women," they are mermaids. Entirely different. ;^) ;^)
Let's Just Say (tm from another list), there was a cartoon in an old Playboy about a sailor trying to decide between two mermaids: one was tetrapod from the waist up, the other from the waist down.
Decisions, decisions....

I recommend taking off the eyeglasses before turning in for the night.
That picture looks a lot like the illustrations in "The Hunting of the Snark".
I'm guessing wanting his dreams to be clearer is the main reason this guy sleeps with his glasses on...
I particularly like the octopus heading groinwards with a hardback book under one tentacle and a very leery look in its eye.
Or maybe it's heading back: 'Run away! These humans got wierd stuff down there...'
Lucky!
In that you're sleeping now.
Reading these posts are just as entertaining as the picture. Quite frankly, if I was dreaming about those things pictured, I'd probably wake up screaming and run to the therapist!

Re; #8 -- Yes, the first thought I had was that it was something by Tenniel. It shows many of the characteristics of his work. Of course, that may have been a popular style at the time.
#15 - it doesn't have Tenniel's mark, though, and I think Tenniel mainly worked for ''Punch''. And, yes, Tenniel did work in a popular style - Du Maurier, some of D. H. Friston's work, and various others are similar.
# 16 - You mention D. H. Friston. He was my great, great, great, great grandfather. I've been researching his work for genealogy purposes. Do you have any further information on him?
