And if they can come up an explanation I know where the holes are because I've been there.
You see, though, some of us don't claim to have any explanation of HOW these things happen, we just know they do.
Those who claim they know how and why (I always think of Otho from Beetlejuice) are morons, plain and simple.
Fact is, however, I know it is possible - therefore there MUST be some sort of mechanical dynamic that allows for it - regardless of whether or not we know what it is or understand it - no different than many aspects of science.
Each book contradicted all the others and not one of them provided workable answers.
Always some little fudge somewhere and a plausible-sounding skim over it...
No being able to explain it, does not make it non-existent.
I experienced something.
Like I said: weird shit happens.
Exactly.
And if you can't explain it, all that means is that you do not understand it.
I have posted this a few times over the past few weeks:
I can;'t explain it, therefore I can;t explain it away.
I don' tknow WHAT happened, but I do know that it DID happen...
One day, a few years back, I left work early.
It was about 3AM and I was driving home pretty fast, because the highway was empty and I wanted to get home.
Suddenly I had this... I hesitate to use the word "vision" because of all the baggage it carries...
Anyway it was as vivid as it was really happening.
A tractor trailer lost control in front of me and overturned.
It landed with the bottom of the truck facing me, and blocking three lanes of traffic.
I actually heard the sound of the crash.
I was directly behind it, and, like I said, it was blocking three lanes of traffic, so I could not swerve to avoid it.
Just as I was about to crash into the truck, I came out of it.
I was very shaken by this.
I had never experienced anything like it before.
It was so much more than a daydream.
I slowed down quite a bit and called my girlfriend at the time, who was at home.
As I was telling her about what happened, I came across a truck lying on its side, blocking three lanes of traffic in front of me in the exact same position I "saw" not five minutes before.
It had to have just happened, because there were no other cars there, the driver was standing outside his truck dazed and confused and the police hadn't arrived yet.
Remember, I saw the truck
after I told my girlfriend what I had experienced, so it wasn't a dream, figment of my imagination or a deluded memory.
