I recall seeing an interview with the Dalai Lama, I think on 60 minutes, some years ago. I was very impressed at the intelligence and thoughtfulness of the man. His remarks were always very direct, no double talk mumbo-jumbo. For a religious leader he was very down to earth and personable. No holier-than-thou attitude. A friend of mine used to be a flight attendant for Delta. Many years ago she was on a flight out of London when a group of Tibetian monks got on the plane and settled in first class. This was a bit of an unusual occurance for her and, being the gregarious sort of person she is, she gets into a fairly animated conversation with them. She had a great time with one of them who she found to be a very charming man. She was was laughing at his jokes, touching his arm or shoulder and generally having a very pleasnt time. Wasn't until she got off the plane and saw the throng of people meeting the plane that she realized that she had been flirting with the Dahli Lama. -- Frank Stutzman Bonanza N494B "Hula Girl" Hood River, OR |
