Second, I'm trying to figure out the basics of lucid dreaming. It's when you are dreaming and you know you are dreaming right? And you can control what you do?
That is correct sir. Lucid dreaming is just dreaming while knowing that you are dreaming. And yes you can control what you do.

The thread I was reading someone mentioned how the majority of their dreams were lucid and someone else asked the techniques. Which made me think about how I do it and I don't know how.
That's alright. Nobody knows the different methods when they first come in. My suggestion is to go to the Dreamviews main page and click on tutorials. Read some of those so you know what the different techniques are. Some of the most popular ones are:
WILD-Wake-Induced Lucid Dream
MILD-Mnemoic Induced Lucid Dream (Pretty sure I spelled mnemoic wrong)
FILD-Finger-Induced Lucid Dream
I think those are the correct abbreviations.

When I doze off there is occasionally those weird leg jerking moments and then I'm asleep and I just know I'm asleep and I go about doing whatever I'm going to do.
That's Sleep Paralysis, or SP. Nothing to be afraid of, but you should read up on it first, just in case.
Anyway, good luck with lucid dreaming and welcome to Dreamviews!
