I'm seeing it (the Cash Flow report) differently (though it isn't a 
report I use often myself)

On the Accounts tab you choose one or more accounts and then see the 
flow.  It makes sense if you clear all accounts and then choose a single 
current asset account (I chose cash) and run the report.  You can see 
what it is doing then.

With the default accounts selected it doesn't make much sense at all 
which is what the OP may have been referring to, i.e. which accounts 
should he sensibly include?  I'd suggest clear all and select current 
account as the place to start.

I don't think we need to send the OP to that hell yet :)
