I went to see the Dalai Lama speak yesterday


This man is amazing. Not only is he a fan of modern technological advances, interested in psychotherapy, and an advocate of non-violence - he's also hilarious. Really - those photos of the Dalai Lama that you may have seen on the internet - where he's making faces, having fun - they actually weren't photoshopped! (I always thought they were.)

Dalai Lama for president! OF THE WORLD!

I guess this means no more visit to ATL to see him.

Again, sure am glad I didn't mow him down with my Nissan.

So glad he makes silly faces. Yip dee do. What an amazing camera zoom you have!
