Well, it might have been a tornado reference.
12 tornados hit Indiana and Ohio yesterday.

When spoken out loud, this sounds similar to Rock star Melissa Etheridge.  She is on tour right now.

A Wizard of OZ reference?  The Wicked  Witch of the East died when Dorthy's house fell upon her.  Is this a tornado reference or is a person who is viewed  as a witch going to die?  (Ding Dong the Witch is Dead).

Let sleeping dogs lie is a common phrase, however, there is not much to support it in the dreambot run today. Thinking  that in looking up the origin of the phrase a clue might be found,  I noticed this interesting note about an early recorded use from the media of "let sleeping dogs die"
In November of 1870, the New York Times ran an article entitled, “Russia and India: The Frontier of the Russian Empire.”  The article asked whether England was on the verge of losing its Asiatic possessions.

"Let us consider why Russia has gained enough to suppose she is sufficiently strong to infringe the wholesome rule to “let sleeping dogs lie” when applied to the English. The Crimean War showed her plainly that her people were barbarians, and that her strength lay in brute force".

So why might the reference to Russian strength and a 150 year ago's war be relevant currently? Perhaps what has been happening regarding modern Crimea and Russia.

"The chairman of Donald Trump’s campaign was involved in encouraging Crimean independence from Ukraine, the Times of London reported Wednesday, citing a leaked memo."
