Fantasies

Today I was looking out the window of the lake house, and I saw a bird in the distance that I couldn't recognize. I started thinking, wouldn't it be cool if it was some type of Australian parrot. I had this fantasy then of being outside and seeing a cockatoo appear. Next I imagined kangaroos jumping about in the grass.

I often have Australian fantasies, but they usually involve humans...things like our Aussie friends surprising us and coming to Texas.

What would our world be like if we
knew for sure there 
was life after death, and 
we could easily talk to our 
dearly-departed on the Internet?
