I understand Mr. Castaneda had an affinity for hallucinogenic greens. Unfortunately, I am yet to read any of his work...

He did indeed. Make sure the first time you read him, you're totally baked. It'll be awesome. x

I'll make sure to do that. I ought to finish reading Ove K. Pedersens "The Competition State" first, though.

Anyone been listening to Russell Brand lately? Some things to make you think.

Yeah? Which others have you read? You are NOT a philosopher. Philosophy is a discipline and requires much study, you are a delusional poseur with no discipline. Having a bunch of neat-o ideas that sound cool to you is not philosophy. Why not stop faking it and start learning something for a change? Run along now and play make believe with the other children...

I wasn't aware that he did philosophy. Interesting though...

Yes, he was a poet and a philosopher. He was the founder of philosophical Taoism.
