About Me

howdy. I'm a graduated grad-student in Tibetan Buddhism, which means I like to stare into space and mumble things, and now have a nice piece of paper describing me as a "master," (of "disaster"). When not staring/mumbling, I can be found rambling 'round Nalanda West, or elsewhere playing the guitar, singing, dancing, playing bocce on a hot summer's day with a jug of red wine and maybe a cigar, with good friends, wearing a wife-beater, sipping on gin and juice, etc. Good times, great oldies (100.9)
