I have pneumonia. While this has some drawbacks, like coughing up blood and sweating like Val Kilmer in “Tombstone,” it also has its share of benefits. Since I can’t really work, I now have all the time in the world to sit around, sleep and eat watermelon. [Insert racist joke here]. I fell asleep a little bit earlier, and immediately had an incredibly vivid dream that I was eaten by a bear. I don’t know if it was the fever or what, but it could not have been any more real if I had woken up with a bear’s jaws clamped around my head. Fortunately, since I have pneumonia, I now have the time to spend the next hour googling Timothy Treadwell, the star of Warner Herzog’s amazing comedy “Grizzly Man.”
