To dream – perchance to sleep
Dreams are normally only interesting to the person who dreamed them – so keeping it short…
Me, Josie long (who I know only very very slightly) plan a stand up gig underground in a tube tunnel. It looks great – though a bit terrifying. We put chairs out – I come up with the funniest joke in the world…
Q: What’s a leotard?
A: A person with learning difficulties who’s into astrology.
Not bad for a dream – though Jimmy Carr did a joke about uni-tards being one-legged mentals or something similar so half a point.
But – that’s not even the joke – no – the joke is –and bear with me, as the dream Josie did incredibly patiently…
Consider these two points
1. A leotard is the result of the desire for a woman to be able to move un-hindered, (most commonly in dance or aerobics.)
2. It’s revealing nature means that it may be sexualised by the viewer.
My conclusion (or dream punch line)
The leotard is therefore a physical embodiment the front line of socio sexual politics.
Boom Boom
Yeah – she didn’t laugh either but – I find it remarkable that I can have such a thought while sleeping.

ISN'T STANDUP FUN
You know the woman at the station who announces the train times and platforms? Do you think she speaks like that at home! “the next dinner to arrive at the table with be the dinner, pie!” HA HA HA
And what about the coroner at the kids hospital? When he gets home does he find it hard to connect in increasingly basic ways with a world which makes less and less sense to him.
