Last night, I dreamt that I was in a hell of my own making working at Noah’s Bagel Bakery in a strip mall in Stevenson Ranch with six women demons.
Sound strange? Not if you know that I watched a DVD on The Tibetan Book of the Bed before bedtime. This is the strangest religious DVD I have ever seen. Some notes:
a. The DVD is narrated by Leonard Cohen, which sounds much cooler in theory than it is in reality. He has a great voice, of course, but it sort of lulled us into apathy and lethargy despite seeing dead people on screen.
b. There are a few clips of the Dalai Lama, in which, I swear on all that is holy, he sounds exactly like Julia Child. Blame the low production values. This realization was enough to awaken us from the Cohen-induced-apathy into fits of glee.
c. Have you ever taken ’shrooms? Because you’ll enjoy Part 2 of the DVD and the demons.
Tibetan Book of the Dead. Read it. Don’t see the video unless you liked the ’shrooms.

(((a DVD on The Tibetan Book of the Bed )))
That’s an interesting Freudian slip you’ve got there.

Ha, ha. I don’t think I should fix it.

His voice just makes me sad.
It would be the Tibetan Book of the Sad.
