1. No ... but I like it
Sounds like something the Dalai Lama would have come up with. Great guy, the Dalai Lama.

6. One of 'em
But there's this kid in Macon ... don't know his name ... he plays at Riverside Blues and is freaky in his awesome skill, scary in his passion. The son of a bluesman, I first heard him play when he was 14.

3. Nope, but in many ways I can see how this person is to many a spiritual
leader.

7. Yeah, but Tibetan Buddhism really doesn't float my boat
Being Irish, I like whiskey and other vices too much for that ... :evilgrin:

But he's a great guy and I bet if ya could get a fifth of Jameson's in him he would be a blast!

8. Also part Irish, but I'm not much a drinker though
and whiskey is way to harsh for me.

Now really, really expensive sipping whiskey that is a different story.

9. Have you ever had
real, 12 year old Jameson's? Not the stuff they export to us but what they keep for themselves, selfish bastards. :-) Simply a miracle.

10. No, I've heard about it though.
However when we in Ireland we didn't even think to ask for it. We were too busy sipping on our local beers and apple ciders.

Wow, sparkly apple juice that gets you DRUNK!

11. recommeneded, because a slug of 12 y o Jameson's
and some good music is just what the doctor ordered.

"Never was philtre found with such power
To charm and bewilder as this we are quaffing.
The magic began when in Autumn's rich hour
As a harvest of gold in the field it stood laughing.
There having by nature's enchantment been filled
With the balm and the boon of the kindest weather,
The wonderful juice from its core was distilled
To enliven such hearts as we have here brought together"

Thomas Moore
