Wild Fantasies?
For those of you expecting something like late-night HBO or Showtime, that's NOT what I'm referring to! lol.
I find myself playing out bad scenarios in my head all the time(Obviously they don't stay bad, I always win). Imagining "what if" situations and then planning my recourse. Am I crazy? Or do we all share this type of daydreaming?

Not sure if you are crazy or not, but visualization is used by all sorts of people, including elite athletes, so I see no problem with it.

Playing the "What if" game is a good method for staying sharp. It keeps your mind active and aware.
If you're crazy, then you have lots of company.

Weeeh, kind of a relief. Maybe I'm not ready for the Men's Warehouse jacket where the sleeves tie together.

If you are crazy, then I am also. I do this all of the time in my work if we have not conducted a proper risk analysis. Just one way of making sure that all of the bases are covered.
BTW - Did you give your own post a thumbs down?:19:
On the internet, the number of posts do not correlate to actual knowledge.

I so that more
than I should when riding today on my Harley. At my age, Idon't seem as alert as a 25 year old, so when I see cars at intersections,or trucks next to me I try to visualize the worst. NOt sure that is a good thing to be doing either, but I seem to do it more since my last motorcycle wreck...Originally Posted by MO_Soldier

I imagine various scenarios and how what would be the best course of action. I think that's more "precautionary" than paranoid or crazy. I like to try and think like a criminal and imagine what they would do to gain entry. When I get back in the farmhouse am definately going to replace some doors, although if someone wants in there are plenty of windows they can smash and walk on in.
Like Jocko, I do the same things on my bike when I ride. I take it a step farther and just pretend I'm invisible and no one can see me, so I expect cars to pull out in front of me or change lanes on me (although with my pipes I don't know how they can't hear me). I had one guy, I could swear we made eye contact, but he pulled on out and I had to hit the brake hard, fortunately I was already off the gas and ready to hit the brakes hard. He got the one finger salute for sure, although I'm sure he couldn't see it.
