Golfing with the Dalai Lama

This is from my mate Carl Spackler telling me the story of how he met the DALAI LAMA: So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a golf course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the 18th hole and he's gonna stiff me out of my tip. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.  CARL SPACKLER DOING WHAT HE DOES BEST...

"Big hitter, the lama". Haha.
Total consciousness doesn’t sound like something particularly desirable. Especially on your death bed.

OK OK OK OK
What happened to Gentlemen scholars and Bules, and Ricardo’s attempts to lift the site “up market????
A quick trawl over the site would have shown the obvious, the site is a friendly chat site centred around sex (like so much of life is). Look at the sheer number of posts relating to sex, and the number relating to his friend meeting the Dalai Lama.

I think this site was very "up market" already before Ricaardo attempts.

It's not about "upmarket" or number of posts, it's simply about having more choices for everybody's general "upliftment". It's not a zero sum game, it's a win-win game.

Of course.
However, I took a marketing degree many years ago. I learned two things - how to pick up girls, and don’t bother trying to hammer a square peg into a round hole.
Take a look at the level of conversation here.... Its not a D&M site. its a fun site. Look at how many people responded to my numeric theory post a few months ago ,or how many people responded to MTs Descartes post from the other day. Compete it to the Ino porn thread, which has morphed into discussing farting….
By all means persevere. Just don’t get despondent about the results.

Although most people think Malsows hierarchy of needs consisted of five layers of a triangle, in fact there were six – the most basic need was that of sex,
This being the early 1940s, prudence meant he dropped that most basic of needs.
