In which I confuse the Dalai Lama’s visit to Seattle with HalloweenApril 11th, 2008 @ 7:01 am
Phone call with The King last night, on my walk home from work:
“I think the Dalai Lama must have arrived in Seattle today.”
“What makes you think he’s here already?”
“Well there’s a bunch of cops outside the hotel I just walked past. And I saw a bunch of dudes dressed up as monks.”
(insert pause for me to think about what I just said.)
“Never mind, they aren’t ‘dressed up as monks’, they are actual monks! My bad.”

I saw Anne Curry’s interview with the Dalai Lama in Seattle on TV tonight and thought of you!

Well, you know they could just be decoys…to throw you off the scent of the real monks.

I was just in New York and I saw this guy who talked and looked just like Joe Pesci. He was “dressed up” as a cop and I thought. Normal cops are just wearing uniforms but if you’re Joe Pesci dressed like that, you really are just “dressed up”.

I LOVE it! Dressed up like a monk? I wonder what the monks dress like on their “days off?” Maybe 7 for Mankind Jeans?

I was there! I swear. I even touched Ann Curry, but not Dave Matthews - now that would have been a dream come true.
