Firewall

I don't like to share my dreams, so I guess this is my way of answering the "Share your last dream" theme at 100 Words.

I don't remember dreams. I wish I could, but I can't.

You see, Symantec was beta-testing a firewall product, and I fell asleep with my face on the keyboard. Somehow, my brain downloaded the firewall, and I blocked my dreams out with an iptables rule.

Oh, they're still there. Just blocked.

So I called Symantec, and forty minutes later I'm talking to some Indian:

"How am be helping you?" he says.

"I firewalled my brain," I said. "I'm blocking my dreams now."

"My dreams dot com?" he asks. "Dot net? Dot org?"

In the end, I was told to reboot.

I used to watch that Match Game show a lot. The best answers were from the guy who bucked the trend and actively resisted the question.
