But I couldn't stomach actually reading Castaneda again so I just mocked his Yaqui shaman's borrowed, often plagiarized, mysticism.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by and commenting.Ron Washam, HMWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11238869156614617705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6745003136564123305.post-18256522298497478512010-05-15T23:44:55.299-07:002010-05-15T23:44:55.299-07:00Ron,

But using a bad parody of Carlos Castaneda, the bogus shaman of the 80's, to talk about wine seemed more fun to me. Those who are determined to kindly comment on my tiresome crap find a way. The rest do what humans have always done--don't stare, honey, the poor man's just crazy.Ron Washamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10386836101202976147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6745003136564123305.post-4767418842652797572010-05-14T12:16:18.658-07:002010-05-14T12:16:18.658-07:00No it's funny Love but it does not leave much ...No it's funny Love but it does not leave much room for comments, well aside from your favorites "Great post Ron" and "You're a funny guy".
