Geddy, apparently, is about 5'2" tall. Surprisingly enough, he is also a
woman. At least according to my subconscious. I had a long conversation
with him/her about the history of the band. Was definitely Geddy in the
dream. Was definitely a short woman.
At one point s/he gave my cat back to me, the one I gave to a friend because
it didn't get along with the other kitties. Anyone with a Freudian
background want to touch this one for me?

From the subject line, I got the mental image of Ged in Barbara Eden's
outfit from "I Dream of Jeannie". He looked pretty good except for the
unsightly wooden leg showing through the chiffon pants.
My interpretation of your dream:
You want Ged to give you a little pussy.

I notice his autograph on the bass is *almost* legible. I didn't have such

Thanks for the factual accuracy and all, but I really am quite aware that
Geddy is indeed not a 5'2" tall woman, pictoral proof or no.

I saw that one a mile away. It could have been worse. At least he
didn't give you a hotdog or a big 10 inch record.

I used to analyze dreams. That all ended, however, when Iwerks told his tale of
the short, female pussy-loving Geddy.

Since you ask, I know precisely where Freud would go with that
dream.
The cat represents "non-male" for you. Why? Because cat phalluses
are so tiny as to be nonexistent.
Your *giving away* of the cat represents your attempt to *repress*
your own feelings of being non-male -- of being, in other words,
homosexual.
Your perception of Geddy as *female* is your mind's way of
justifying your sexual attraction to him.
Geddy's returning of the cat to you means, "Keep your cat; *accept
your homosexuality*."
Thanks for the link! I had always assumed that Geddy was 5'6" or
so. He does seem to be taller than that, to judge from your pics.

Boy, he must take a lot of crap about that name, huh? ;)

My Freudian reading of your Freudian reading of my dream is that you want me
to accept homosexuality so you can poke me. Sorry, Nyarl. You're just not

No, I'm not trying to imply that you're gay. But that's precisely
where Freud would go with that dream. Trust me, I've studied Freud and
I'm onto his tricks. Let me give you an example.
Around 1910, Freud began his psychoanalysis of (fellow
psychoanalyst) Horace Frink. Frink was very happily married; his reason
for entering psychoanalysis w/ Freud was to learn some new techniques
from the master. Frink happened to have a patient of his own, Angelika
Bijur, whose husband was massively wealthy.
Freud convinced Frink, in the course of their "treatment," that
Frink's homosexual side (Freud had plagiarized, from his former intimate
friend Wilhelm Fleiss, the idea of universal bisexuality) was on the
brink of becoming dominant. Frink, Freud insisted, would have to
divorce his wife and marry Bijur (and thus destroy Bijur's own happy
marriage in the process [Bijur's infuriated husband was about to
retaliate and publicly expose Freud as a "quack"; this plan was
curtailed when he died of a heart attack]).
Frink carried out Freud's instruction (his former wife, abandoned,
would soon die). Yet Frink just wasn't very happy with Bijur.
Freud explained to Frink that his unhappiness with Bijur was
due, once again, to Frink's homosexuality.
Freud *then* explained to Frink that Frink's homosexual impulses
were directed at -- you guessed it! -- *Freud himself*.
Freud went on to suggest to Frink that the real reason Frink
married Bijur was so that Frink could, as a symbol of his love for
Freud, make a huge donation of Bijur's money to Freud. "You have
homosexual fantasies of making me a very rich man," Freud wrote to
Frink, "Let us see if we can make this fantasy of yours a reality."
To make a long story short, all parties involved in this episode
(save Freud himself) were utterly destroyed. Incidentally, when Frink
was found dead, a letter written by his former wife was found at his
bedside. In it, she insisted that she believed Freud's influence was
pernicious; and that *all she wanted* was to make Frink happy.
If all this sounds a bit outrageous, a bit hard to believe, see the
chapter, "The Marriage Counselor," in _Unauthorized Freud_, edited by
Frederick Crews.
Freud routinely "instructed" his patients as to what their true
sexual impulses were -- and he had no compunctions about using such
"instructions" for his own gain.
Freud is the most devious quack in modern history.

That was very intersting stuff. I have studied a lot of Freud (I
majored in anthro and part of the program was "psychological anthro,")
but I had never heard this story before. Although a couple of his
theories ring true for me, for the most part I agree with you that he
was a quack and a sexist and a coke fiend, etc.............I think he
"projected" a lot of his own shit onto his patients.
A good book you may want to read is Gloria Steinem's If Freud Were A
Woman. (Or is that When Freud Was a Woman?--shit I can't remember the
exact title!) Anyway, she takes his theories, and turns them on their
heads. It kind of brings to light how ridiculous some of them really
are.

No, no, I agree that Freud is a looney quack and all, but that doesn't
change the fact that you want me.

Hmm, as Spiro Vera points out, Freud constantly indulged in
"projection"; he would impose his *own* feelings, thoughts, etc., onto
his unlucky patients.
Absolutely. In fact, many of Freud's "patients" are Freud
*himself*, indulging in covert autobiography. E.g., the "patient" in
"Screen Memories" who has fantasies of violently deflowering a virgin --
Siegfried Bernfeld demonstrated in the 50s that that was Freud himself.
Or the "travelling companion" Freud meets in chapter 2 of The
Psychopathology of Everyday Life, who misquotes Virgil because he is
afraid that he has impregnated his lover -- that was Freud himself, who,
at the time he composed the piece, was afraid that he had knocked up his
sister-in-law, Minna Bernays.
OK, you caught me projecting. I do actually want myself. I asdjeiv __nf
