Zen Schmen
Yeah, I've done the Zen thing. Three years worth, at least. Studied Hinduism pretty serious, if you can about 12 weeks of meditation lessons, 'about a year of practice, and reading Christopher Isherwood as taking it seriously. Took years to debaise my mind from Eastern religions, and every once in a while, I recognize that once again I'm pursuing ecstasy, not a relationship with God.
But I'm an addict, you know. And today is the 18th anniversary of my sobriety.

Last time I was in Vegas was 2002; I was there about 10 times between 1997 and 2002, watching game 7 of the 97 series with Monster at NY NY casino (I think). Always stayed out of trouble.
