No, it was a little four-banger. I was in the Navy, I couldn't afford fancy six cylinder cars...

We had been taking artillery fire off and on all during the night and sometimes you could even hear the shrapnel banging off the side of the track. I was the track commander and hadn't slept in over 48 hours, so while our artillery was pounding the base, I laid on top of a pile of TOW missiles in the back of our track and drifted off to sleep (of course, I set up a rotating guard schedule first). I was scared, dead tired and eager to get this phase over with. While sleeping, I had a dream and in that dream, my wife's mother (whom didn't speak English) told me in the dream for me not to worry, that I would be okay. I thought that was strange. Why not my mother? Well, the attack went off without a hitch (the vehicle next to us - about 100 meters off - was hit, but we were okay!). About three weeks later, once we got back to Dahran and was getting ready to head back to Ft. Stewart, I finally got to a phone where I could call my wife. When I reached her, she told me that her mother had died. I asked when, and it turns out that it was the same time that I had had my dream.

NATO AIR said:At the asylum center I once volunteered at in Miami, there was a Haitian man named Gerard who'd had the tendons in his legs cut out by thugs who were not pleased with him trying to start a neighborhood watch, as well as working for the American aid group that was building a new church and hospice in the town. He was supposed to never walk again because of how his legs had become infected and useless, but one day a priest from El Salvador (who'd long ago fled that nation because government death squads targeted him) prayed with him. They prayed for what seemed like the entire morning. The next day, everyone at the center was excited... Gerard was walking again!
At the same center, one of the resident nurses, a woman from Chile (who had been gangraped by government security forces in 1980 at the age of 10) who'd been told it was medically impossible for her to have a child (because of the damage caused to her tiny womb by the repeated rape) year after year suddenly became pregnant. She had a healthy baby daughter 8 and a half months later, nearly 24 years after she'd supposedly become infertile. I remember this fondly because I recieved a picture of the baby in boot camp and my RDC (Recruit Division Commander) ordered me to cry like a baby or do 100 push-ups, so I chose the push-ups being a proud dumbass.

Bonnie said:So have I.........when I was a kid I had a dream that I saw an old lady dressed in a victorian gown purple with a while lace collar. I had never seen her before, but she was telling me in the dream to never be afraid of death as it is not real death 0nly a step to another life. Turns out she was my great grandmother, and that was the dress she was buried in. My famliy had an old photo that they showed me after I had the dream and it was the exact same woman I saw in my dream.

PRESERVATION OF PHARAOH’S BODY
Dr. Maurice Bucaille is an eminent French surgeon, scientist, scholar and author of "The Bible, The Quran and Science" which contains the result of his research into the Judeo-Christian Revelation and the Quran. It is a unique contribution in the field of religion and science.
Being an outstanding Scientist, he was selected to treat the mummy of Merneptah (Pharaoh), which he did. During his visit to Saudi Arabia he was shown the verses of the Holy Quran in which Allah says that the dead body of the Pharaoh will be preserved as a "Sign" for posterity.
"So this day We shall deliver your (dead) body (out from the sea) that you may be a sign to those who come after you! And verily, many among mankind are heedless of Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs , revelations, etc.)." (The Quran, 10:92)
An impartial scientist like Dr. Bucaille, who (being also a Christian) was conversant with the Biblical version of Pharaoh's story as being drowned in pursuit of Prophet Moses. He was pleasantly surprised to learn that unknown to the world till only of late 20th century, the Holy Quran made definite prediction about the preservation of the body of that same Pharaoh of Moses' time. This led Dr. Bucaille to study the Holy Quran thoroughly after learning the Arabic language and accepted Islam as the truth.
The body of Pharaoh is now lying in a Cairo museum as an open miracle of the Holy Quran, for those who pay heed to the signs of Allah.
