He is the one in the show who usually gets his teeth kicked out by Chuck Norris Actually, Willytex's *politics* are more along the lines of Chuck Norris, who has turned into a rabid Chrisschun right-winger, even a few cans shorter of a six-pack than Ted Nugent. Fascinatingly enough, back in the 60s I once got to face off against Chuck Norris in a no-contact karate contest. It was my first contest, and I was a lowly brown belt thrown into the black belt category because they didn't have enough entrants to have a separate brown belt competition. I managed to whup my first black belt opponent, and was thus feeling pretty spunky and invincible when the time came for my second match, and out walked this other black belt. I didn't know him from Adam. He not only went on to win the contest that day, but went on to win his first World Championship that year. Our match lasted less than thirty seconds. I put on my fiercest warrior face and tried to stare him down and he laughed and pulled one of those spinning double back kicks on me and pulled it about a quarter-inch from my chin. I didn't even see it coming, he was that fast. But being good at karate clearly doesn't mean that you're good at being a human being. He has since said many of the dumbest and most despicable things a human being can, and seems proud of saying them.

In looking I see they also carry Walker: Texas Ranger where you can see how folks carry on in Willy Tex's neck of the woods CBS Action, yes indeed. They also show SNG but I don't have the time to spend every night watching Star Trek, much as I'd want to. I will record an episode of Texas Ranger just to see for myself the landscape that shaped the soul of the great man WillyTex. Maybe we'll even see him in the background radiating his typically vast spiritual warmth?

Sal, you summed it up very well. BTW which Star Trek you watching? Original? Nex Gen - my favorite was always Deep Space 9, and I make no apologies for it! It's the original series, I found it on CBS. I haven't seen any of them since I was a kid. It's great stuff. Tonight's was about a penal colony where the governor has gone mad and is brainwashing everyone to be just like him. Kirk gets the treatment but saved the day and got off with the foxy chick. No surprises there.

No one I know in Fairfield takes much interest in it all. Maybe the folks on campus do, which makes them rather like you, although for different reasons. But I guess you just have a need to feel smug and superior, and the TM movement just serves as a vehicle for that. You are, after all, so much better and wiser and more knowledgeable than they are, right? For the millionth time. I still do TM but think the supporting philosophy is crap and the movement makes a lot of money out of some obviously dubious "technologies" even though they like to bleat about science at any other time. Go figure. Regarding this "obsession" with the TMO, what I have is an interest in what my old spiritual almer mater is up to because it was a wild time and I met some crazy people (in both good and bad ways) and got to see the inside of a cult and saw how it works and how it affects affects people. I still like TM as it goes and have fond memories of my time living there, but you've got to transcend the crap you are in to evolve. It's the movement types who aren't curious and carry on like everything is great that worry me. Finally, FFL is something to do at work and during the adverts on TV - watching Star Trek at the moment - it's not an obsession either. It's a bit of fun. So lighten up.

Cool. I'd love to go and have a look round and take some photos. Do you remember the story the TMO used to tell about there being an old Injun legend about white men in white clothes flying round the top of their "holy" mountain?
