Life on the run

Amazing this internet connection, I overheard them talking about updating to a 14.4k modem soon, so hopefully if I ever come back, I'll be able to send a message in under an hour.

Hampi is absolutely beautiful, but inordinately hard to explain. I will however try, as this may be the only time I give myself the motivation required to try and extract the various alchemical essences that pervade the atmosphere here.

I've done my best to acheive a sunburnt state of being, and by all accounts I've succeeded. I wouldn't be surprised if Vogue called and tried to line me up for their cherry fall line. While piggybacking on my poor knees up endless winding 2 ft stairs, I fell into wondering how it it is you could have massive piles of boulders stacked up on top of each other in the middle of a otherwise flat terrain. The answer I came up with was surpisingly simple... magnificent, extraordinary, giant gophers! Why else put goliath temples in the middle of nowhere if not to celebrate the extreme digging skills of those beautiful rodents.

There, solved it, no need for you to come all the way out to India and ponder this question anymore, case closed. However, if you were still looking for a challenge, I could pose you this one, how come the culture that came up with KamaSutra is one of the most conservative sexually, morally, polically, etc., in the whole world. I've been wondering, wondering and wondering.

I already miss my children and the Robertson House (home of iniquity and good people), but I'm meeting up with one badass dude in a couple days and life will be good! Ok, time to go broker a peace deal with Pakistan.
