He-man @ MindSay 
I am starting to think so. Doesn't it seem like I have an awful lot of moments of synchronicity? No one else seems to notice these as often as I do--or if they do, they don't report it as often as I do. And I often have episodes that I don't blog about because of time or whatever. Which leads me to wonder, am I more observant than others, thus producing the synchronicity effect more often, or, do I, in fact, control the universe with my mind?
Today, I was sorting a cart of books for reshelving. One of the books (and only one) fell off the cart as I was pushing it. They were packed on there pretty tightly so I was surprised that one fell off. Before I could pick it up, one of my bosses grabbed it and got all excited. It was a book called The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. She started telling me all about this book and how much she loves it and on and on. That's fine. It isn't my cup of tea, but I am glad she was so excited about it.
-THEN-
About 10 minutes later the phone rang and I picked it up. It wasn't busy at all and this was the first call I got today. The woman says to me, "do you have The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood checked in?" No freaking kidding.
Obviously I knew that it was checked in since I had held it in my hand minutes before.
Okay, so that is weird enough, but then.....
A guy called me over to his computer and told me he was having trouble making the page load. I checked it out and I couldn't make it work, so I switched his browser and we went to the site he was at. He told me he was trying to load a television show in case that makes any difference. It doesn't, at all, but I had some time to kill so I said, "whatcha watching?". He said, "Bones."
Bizarre? Not really....
...but then I said, "Oh I love that show, are you watching the new ones?" And he said, "no, I am trying to catch up and I am watching the old ones." I said that I am doing that exact same thing and asked where he was and he said, "the one I am trying to load is called The Passenger in the Oven."
Now, that is weird.
I actually told him about the blog I JUST wrote about that episode and while this might have fallen under the category of TMI, he did agree that this was weird.
Now, both of these episodes happened within a couple hours of each other. That's fairly unusual, right? So I have to think that it is somehow me that is causing these connections. So I am going with Mistress of the Universe.
That will now be my official title and, henceforth, I expect to be addressed as such.
P.S. Apropos of nothing, the title of the blog makes me think of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe series from when I was a kid. My brothers were big He-Man fans and I usually played the role of She-Ra. I also had a She-Ra doll that was about half the size of a Barbie Doll--I taught myself how to french braid hair on that tiny little doll and that is still a skill I retain today. See how educational toys can be?
The most recent one was warped so many times. I guess it starts out by my sister and I sitting at a table infront of a stage with King Crimson. This amazes me. They start playing and go through a couple songs.. wow they're great. It was pretty amazing when they play Frame By Frame.. the dim lit room turned into a bright lit room.. and the floor was empty now except for people at it's edge and there were polished spherical stones about 2.5-3.5inches wide.. I was dancing ON them and holding them.. kind of remiended of David Bowie in Labrynth. Anyway I was dancing to Frame by Frame and there were two LARGEer, about 5 feet tall that I finally jumped on and blablabla the room turned back into to what it was before and I sat for another song. Now that I think aout it.. it might have been a different song..
Then I sat back down again..and I blacked out... I woke up in some bed.. got up looked around.. kind of freaked out that I blacked out at the show. I swear I was mickeyed. I went outside and idk.. I guess I was by a dock and I learn
Man fuck okay there's a lot to write. I'll make it short.
Eventually I turn into He-Man action figure. IDK if it was heman, but anyway, a colleuge was there on a decenting hill and we emerged from a hidden base through a porta potie hah. these bad blue action figures come running at us and we kick their ass! haha Action figures aren't dense and it was very fun to kick their butts! Imagine the density of the blue little meeps. Bwahaha. Anyway
We're running down the hill now to get somewhere quick.. and I guess i"m a human again and there's a girl infront of me.. and she starts giving me a hand job and blablabla I remember I really wanted to fuck her and all I had to do was bend her over but I didn't. It turns out there was another friend of ours that was running after some dwarfs.. ifk what to call them. Anyway I tried to round them up, but then one pulled out a gun so i booked it between two warehouses. dodged right, through a fence, and brush, then to the left.. I had been here before in my dreams. What the fuck. Does this place exist?? haha. Dosen't matter. I look back and the midget is still folowing. I wake up.
Now I'm sure most of you don't care about some persons dreams, but I'm writing this for me. I guess this next part can be for you.
It's my friends 18th birthday party and she's having a heuge one! I am going to go there and get trasssheeedd. Oman it's gonna be sweet. Glad I woke up in time.. Time to eat, shower, steal beer from my mom and book it over there WOOHGHHOOHOHOO!!!

I have to get to Box Hill immediately. This time with money. I was there this week and went into an anime shop, and there i saw something i've been looking for for so long - He men! :D
There must have been thirty of them. Fisto, Cyclops, Jitzu, Spikor, Two-bad, Tongue-lashor, Rattlor, Hordak, Skeletor, Mossman and heaps more that i've forgotten the names of, and others i'd never seen before.
I don't know how much they were, and my Newstart doesn't kick in for 13 weeks so i won't be getting any money within that time unless a job comes up. But i want them; i want them.
I think i have goosebumps.
Continuing on my 80's theme I would like to talk more about the He-Man universe. In my previous post I discussed the "logic" that qualifies you to be a master of a universe like hypnotizing a hypnotist singer to hypnotize the sorceress of Greyskull. In this blog I would like to point out what really is the "Power of Greyskull". After watching a few episodes I began to realize that the only true "Power of Greyskull" was an instant tan, less clothes and a nice echo to your voice. I really feel better about myself now because I thought our world was ignorant for not seeing Clark Kent as Superman because he wore glasses. Obviously in Eternia all it takes is a tan and a change of clothes...wow. No wonder our world can't be dominated by aliens because A. we have nasty bateria (see War of Worlds...actually don't) B. we have superior mental power (see Independance Day...actually don't) and C. SG-1 thru 5 (see StarGate...yeah it's ok to watch).
Another interesting thing I noticed was Adam (He-Man's version of Clark Kent) wore a pink shirt (this was way before the stupid "real men wear pink" shirts), lavendar tights and purple boots. After he uses his sword he gets a tan and goes shirtless with a metallic harness and furry underwear. Ok. I really don't think I need to add anymore commentary on that one. Yeah that scenario brings on more questions than a male voice and a purse in Teletubbies. Tinky Winky is right.
Another interesting thing is that Beastman isn't just called Beastman because he looks like an Orangatang but he actually has the power to call animals. Just never for any good reason. Beastman really had some co-dependancy issues as he continually allowed Skeletor to abuse him verbally and physically. When things got bad Skeletor would burn out leaving him to take the beating from He-Man then when he crawled home he would get blamed for the failure and made fun of. I think Eternia is to blame for not seeing the signs and calling on Man-At-Arms and Tela to make an intervention. It's a sad verse.
But all this was made better at the end of every show because He-Man would always do a spot about the moral of the story but I think the lessons learned were really scary.
-Peace Out
If you haven't already they have a great comic about the credibility of Wiki sites and He-man.
