Before you read this you have to know I have NO ongoing health concerns and I am not a bit hypocondriacal ..... so how weird and a bit funny the following is:

Last night I awoke from a dream in which I am watching the 5pm television newscasts and I see a story come on.   The anchor, Furnell Chatman (yah, why him?), tells the audience  "Mark Thompson of Fox11 has just been diagnosed with testicular cancer".

Then I flip over to see the anchor on channel 2 reporting the same diagnosis....and then, channel 7 as well.

Now I'm worried that my newscast on Fox11 is also going to report it at 10pm.  Plus, in the dream I am confused and worried because I don't know anything about this, and I suppose I must be wondering why the other stations would have such a keen interest -- make that ANY interest-- in me. 

then....

I wake up, check my private parts and go back to sleep.

What's it mean???

Mark... when was the last time you had your annual exam? Might be time to start having your doctors check these types of things, just in case...

Also, what are your views about your own mortality and getting older these days? And are you having a b-day soon? (Can't remember when your b-day was to save my life...)

woooopa

It sounds like you may be the type of guy that isn't always willing to go in for your regular exam and you are telling yourself to get into the doctor's office for your physical.

Here is my diagnosys.

1. Your contract with Fox is up for renewal soon and you are unsure what may be.

2. Other projects you have been working on are approaching a point whether they will progress onward or stop dead in their tracks.

I think the dream deals with you professionally. The relation to health is that concerns such as cancer is perceived to be the end (just as if a business deal falls flat).

My prescription: Take a nap in the afternoon.

What a weird dream!... (or nightmare!)
I hope whatever is weighing heavy on you, lightens up... and it might be a good idea to get your "boys" checked out by your doctor... sometimes our subconscious is trying to give us nudges to take care of things that we are not on top of. Take good care of yourself, Markie... you have a lot of people out here who enjoy seeing you on the air :-)

Mark, you need a self-check.

illuminate your testicles with a flashlight.

and with the other hand insert your longest finger into your buttt and wiggle from right to left feeling for raisis.

if you need help...there are plenty of volunteers in your news room.

thats called killing two birds with one stone...

mark, you should dream that you are standing in front of the weather map and for unknown reason you are not wearing pants. this dream would be something relating to being publicly humiliated. yet jillian would see it as cool.

Don't worry Mark, you are a balsy type of guy. Just keep dancing man, and keep the blood flowing, get annual checkups "you-know-where" and you'll be A-OK! "That's So Markiewood!!!"

Uh, Shans-Deb, are you talking about BLEEP-BLEEP-BLEEP (not the green giant variety)?

Sebar,
Actually, it was Phil who mentioned Jillian.... I know that you have a right to your opinion... but just because you don't like someone that does not make them a “BLEEP” it offends me that you call her that. She is a wife and a new mother, can't you express your distaste of her without the name calling? I would appreciate it if you could try.

Sebar,
I think that your pun on Mark being a "balsy type of guy" was very funny.

Well let's see. It's 7AM in the morning and the school kids are getting ready for school. Jillian is wearing a top that exposes heavy cleavage from sagging boobs. She talks about her boobs, drops consistent hint with Dorothy Loose-eee about sexual things, then comes the food and a cook and her boobs are disgustingly behind the shot of the food. Finally the school kids are off to school, but their mom was watching because she needed the weather, which is still done poorly by Jillian, the weather by a venerable and precise Rick Dickert, and the news as delivered by a great Steve Edwards.

If Jillian acted like a mom and more responsibly that is one thing. But almost every day its the cleavage and sexual innuendos. I don't honestly have to comment that much because Jillian dresses and acts like this, same with Dorothy, and the shame is they could be more like a Lisa Breck or Christine Devine but to mention a few FOX women, or a Leelila or Gina to mention others. Jillian is what she is, if she wants to change for the audience and act differently then opinions will change. Till them, those can of peas and corn, BLEEP-BLEEP-BLEEP!

Mark,

I've been watching your weather casts since you've been hired here at Fox 11, not to mention the times when you first piloted Good Day LA at the launch with Antonio Mora and Dagne Hultgreen. You are a fixture here! You came on board, and are now the George Fischbeck of Los Angeles weather...an intelligent weatherman with a sense of clean humor. The dream is just there to remind you to stay as healthy as you can. Don't sweat it, but stay healthy. It also says the other stations competing for ratings are watching you, since you do great work! I noticed that you didn't mention KCAL 9...I know that KCBS 2 counts in its place. Keep up the sense of clean humor guy...we need great examples of clean humor to teach the youth good manners!
