Ra Pissheads!

Saturday 1:40 p.m.
I was going to go to the hut yesterday about three o clock in the afternoon, but a gust of cold, cold wind blew me into Bert's Bar instead. I must say that for someone completely tee total like myself this was a great thrill. It was warm in there and there was beer and nice music in the background. I was reading William James's The Varieties of Religious Experience:

"Sobriety diminishes, discriminates, and says no; drunkenness expands, unites, and says yes.... it brings it's votary from the chill perifery of things to the radiant core. It makes him for the moment one with truth... The drunken consciousness is one bit of the mystic consciousness, and our total opinion of it must find its place in our opinion of that larger whole."

Unfortunately, drunknenness also says, "Whit dae ye think you're lookin' at, pal?" and "school librarians, ya bass!", so I am a fortunate creature to have spent all the rest of my overdraft yesterday and will not be able to go to Bert's Bar this afternoon.

How all this is leading to the breathless state with no heart beat, you may well ask? But it is. Yogis, ya bass!

I can google Bert's Bar to see where it is, but google won't tell me what you were drinking. That would help.
