And who said these people are not regular guys . . . I guess the great thing about Socrates and Gurdjieff (my two personalfavorites) is that they really could drink you under the table and they really could fight (at least in their younger days). Socrates had two little kids running around when he was seventy; and Gurdjieff, well, he was a great father when he could actually remember all the names of all his kids, what child belonged with which mother, etc. And both made no secret of that either.+

And you should hear the rest of the story, because after I left, someone told me Brahmananda Saraswati, Guru Dev, comes into the bar, riding a freakin' tiger, looking all 'Embodiment of Shiva' and all...you don't even want to *know* what happened next... --------------------------------- Never Miss an Email Stay connected with Yahoo!
