Babaji fuzzie ananda twice booed,

 

You can say you're not my guru all you want to, man.

 

But, lie it or not, I am claiming you as my very own.

 

Baba Garydas Yogi

 

Da Bear. Da Bear.

I'll only let you down, Gary Babasass Yogi Mahesh Hootchie. And, I

don't want that on my karma, dawg. I mean, like, your karma could run

over my dawg, dawg. See what I'm saying? What if you read in the

papers that I'm out spending my guru money on German goo goo porn

queens and hashish and then it gets on the Internet with all these

pictures and everything of the sordid event and me in a very

compromising position with all my devotees trying to pretend it aint

really happening and I'm backpeddling like a mofo trying to fend off

these civil suits, and, I mean, then, what's gonna happen to you? Why,

you'd be crestfallen, if not stricken with grief and remorse, pulling

your hair out and threatening suicide and becoming all

self-destructive and everything. And, then I'd have to answer all

these questions about my personal habits and what's in my medicine

chest and what's on my C-file and just how much of that guru money am

I raking in, anyhow, and, all such interrogations as that. I can't

deal with that. It's too much BS. I just like to sit here in my boxer

shorts in all my anonymity and eat clam chowder and write silly emails

to hillbilly gurus down there near the Blue Ridge Mountain Blues

Groove. It's so much easier. I love this postmodern age. I can turn it

off and on whenever I want. Just a mouse click away. It's, like,

virtual, man.

 

OK. What was the question, again?

 

( " It's always something " , Annadanna Roseannadanna replies).

 

Yours, too,

 

Yogi Boo Boo Fuzzie Butt Ananda
