Go, Go, the Long Horn Way


"Go go, the long horn way.
Work it every day.
Go go, the long horn way.
*something...something something*
If you're not breaking a horn each day,
You're not living the long horn way."

Yeah, talk about a crazy dream and even crazier when you can remember the ending credits theme song to the movie mash up you lived through. The most I remember was it being a Wall*E and Chicken Little combined movie dream. I was in space and everyone on the spaceship was being evacuated on the note that we were going home now. Well once I finally got into my ball shaped pod and launched into space, I could hear the automated female voice instructing me (and everyone else) to continue to breathe deeply in our masks and count to 7. I had a little trouble getting to 7, but once there and seeing i hadn't passed out, I decided to look out the window. I could see everything from our ship had been released. It was then I realized that we weren't all heading back to Earth, but instead our ship had malfunctioned and the best way they knew for us to go was to have a us evacuate on the basis we were going home so we would die asleep.

I had no control as to what or where my pod was going, but I could see the other ships, cargo, and weapons of mass destruction barely passing my pod as I and everything else continued to drift about.

Well, as luck would have it, I ended up landing back on the planet we were already occupying before the big event. In fact, a good portion of everyone made it safely back to the foreign planet. This is when it began to shift to Chicken Little and I began to fade away because there were talking animal people everywhere and I began to watch the dream than be in it. One animal person in particular was a huge Bull who was telling everyone about how we'd take care of the planet and learn to live there. We did it once before, why couldn't we learn to do it again? So he was at the store and pulled something off the shelf near a cashier and asked, "Is this meat?" and the cashier shook her head. He then replies, "Of course it's not, we didn't bring any live stock or game with us when we left Earth so long ago," yet he was optimistic that we would eventually have meat once more after taking time to raise some herds. And then as the Bull and the other people were rebuilding the town they were in, he breaks out into that cheesy song.

"Go go, the long horn way.
Work it every day.
Go go, the long horn way.
*something...something something*
If you're not breaking a horn each day,
You're not living the long horn way."
