Today’s report may read like something out of a sci-fi book. But, I assure you it’s real.  Today we’ll be walking through an extremely odd  “teaching dream” I experienced Thursday morning in one of my “other lives.”

“Other Lives? AYFKM”

I warned you of the sci-fi angle, right?  If you haven’t read my book Psychocartography: Mapping the Human Dream” it won’t make sense.  But trust me, there are a few of your fellow humans around who have worked diligently on “remembering their dreams” and often, the recall is so good and just so damn crisp (in a “going to IMAX way) that upon waking into this shared “reality” it takes a day (or two) to get your feet back on the ground.

I think when you read this “trip report” you’ll understand clearly what “non-numeric mathematics is about and here’s another warning for you:  This may change how you think about history forever.

But first, the weekend “housekeeping items” including our headlines, a look at the markets through our “Aggregated markets” viewer, and then we’ll jump into one of the most instructive dreams I’ve ever experienced.  And that’s going a good ways…

According to the UrbanDictionary, the term springs from a posted definition from a UD contributor named conceitedAsHell) back in 2003.

Since this was “follow-up” week from my August 6 hernia mesh implant, which involved my personal science project in an attempt to ‘beat the laws of medicine’ I’ve been doing a lot of study on patientology. 

Not just as it relates to being a grand patient (doctors don’t get enough “up-side surprises” as I see it), but also to how we – as aging upright apes – take on this whole (increasingly likely) interaction process with the medical community as we age.

As a result, I’ve been working on generalizing a personal pro-active approach for Elaine and me – many details of which I think you’ll find interesting.  Especially one mental acuity protocol I call simply “the gauntlet.”

We’ll jump into this stuff just as soon as we roll through the midweek ChartPack and see if the news headlines make any more sense today than they did Tuesday.  Spoiler alert:  Don’t hold your breath…

The non-public part of Comms in the AfterCrash on UrbanSurvival today.  As that article notes, you will have to adjust to an entirely different information world in the event of “an actual emergency.”  No reason not to herd a few neuron bursts in that direction while we can.

A note from military affairs contributor warhammer on EMP sets the tone for this morning’s discussion of how one might successfully prep for an EMP or massive HGD (*hard grid-down) event.  We’ll be doing this one a budget and with a purpose.

To round-out the concepts in the UrbanSurvival piece.

After some headlines and a check of how markets ended this options expiration week.

It’s not a trivial question, not by any stretch. In an age of “instant anything” where we can buy anything our heart desires (and get free shipping with Prime) the question is intense.

The real answers, however, are quite elusive and, to a large extent, age-dependent and situational.

So this morning some “hybrid-thinking” where we look at a range of futures and begin on a path of  “goods acquisitions” to best use our meager funds for a semi-chaotic future.

After a few headlines, our Aggregate view of markets and assorted snide remarks about that which passes as “news” these days, we’ll jump in.

With a hernia surgery this week, inquiring minds wanted to know: “Can we cheat a bit on the recovery end?”  So off into research.

None of what is offered here is medical advice.  It is, however, a worthwhile line of inquiry.  So the next time you face a major health issue, rather than signing into the “victim role” the alternative is to ask a lot of  questions and build a research plan.  Just like you’d do with any other business problem, Keeping your doc in the loop, of course.

A few brief headlines, and an update on our chart series and then into the post-op world we go…where we’ll try, for a change,  NOT to keep you in stitches.

Ouch!  Day one after hernia surgery and a new idea hits:  We’re looking at a “Trump Policy” for our websites. Don’t panic.  I’m exploring aa proposed policy and putting out some ideas for subscriber-only for comment because they are really who we serve.  There are only a few hundred of them.

Point is, I want a policy to govern site comments so they don’t degenerate into ad hominem attacks.  Call me lazy, but name calling and unrelated Trump bashing has to go.  The last straw has been trying to blame Trump for the recent shootings.

Before we get into the “clean up the web” discussion of whether this is self-censorship or simply cutting down the “noise floor” of our future-scanning receivers and markets Replaying 1929 scenario, we will update our Aggregate Index approach to market charting refine the downside a bit more.  Headlines, coffee, and more.  All as I pencil out a post-surgery summary for Saturday’s report on “Wound Super-Healing?”
