I don't know if Yogic Flyers will be levitating in the missing man formation at his funeral.

That's a drag. He just stopped working long days and turned day-to-day ops over to someone else in his organization a week or two ago. Guess he wasn't feeling so hot. But 91, that's not too bad...

Sorry Andy Kaufman, you may be my hero, but this bullshiat nonsense is where we disagree, and it ended up being the death of you.

Wasn't he a documented fraud? I'm sorry for any family or friends, but not especially for the man.

This is too bad.

He had a good heart and was kind to a lot of people.

He may have done weird things to his followers, but who's to say?

Here's what Lennon thought of the Yogi:

Sexy Sadie what have you done
You made a fool of everyone
You made a fool of everyone
Sexy Sadie ooh what have you done

Sexy Sadie you broke the rules
You layed it down for all to see
You layed it down for all to see
Sexy Sadie oooh you broke the rules

One sunny day the world was waiting for a lover
She came along to turn on everyone
Sexy Sadie the greatest of them all

Sexy Sadie how did you know
The world was waiting just for you
The world was waiting just for you
Sexy Sadie oooh how did you know

Sexy Sadie you'll get yours yet
However big you think you are
However big you think you are
Sexy Sadie oooh you'll get yours yet

We gave her everything we owned just to sit at her table
Just a smile would lighten everything
Sexy Sadie she's the latest and the greatest of them all

She made a fool of everyone
Sexy Sadie

However big you think you are
Sexy Sadie

He wrote the song after leaving the retreat because the yogi was being innapropriate with an actress. He realized he was a fraud.

Back then some famous psychic predicted that the Beatles would all be killed in a plane crash while coming back from seeing him in India.

I think it was a NYPost headline.

No, there he is coming out of the bathroom...

Yeah, I never went in for this sort of thing, very much, outside of adolescence, but I think the Beatles sorta misinterpreted him. He exhibited lust in their presence. Lust is unholy, perhaps, in a Christian context, but not in a Hindu one, so far as I understand these things. . .

I submitted this with a MUCH funnier headline. :-(

I think the sadness would be in Vedic City not Fairfield. I always loved the greg brown song about the rich floaters in Farfield.

Fairfield
There's a whole lotta money in Fairfield, Fairfield, Fairfield, Whole lotta money in Fairfield,
I'm gonna get me some.

Them floaters they come down here, down here, down here,
Them floaters they come down here,
Fix the whole town up.

If the floaters come to your town, your town, your town,
Floaters come to your town,
You might wanna stick around.

They meditate and get focused, focused, focused,
They do a little hocus pocus,
And the money just rolls in.

They know all 'bout computers, your New Age, and foreign food,
They do all that real good,
Fairfield's where to go.

Mount Pleasant isn't really, really, really,
Mount Pleasant isn't really,
And neither is Burlington.

Well, there ain't no money in Eldon, Pulaski, Keosauqua,
There's a little bit in Ottumwa,
But it's tighter than a drum.

Ah, the Quads are full of dope fiends, blown whores, methamphetamines.
Ball-capped boys and gambling,
And all this sort of stuff.

Fairfield used to be a shiathole, a shiathole, a shiathole,
Fairfield used to be a shiathole,
But take a look at it now.

There's a whole lotta money in Fairfield, Fairfield, Fairfield,
Whole lotta money in Fairfield,
I'm gonna get me some.

I played soccer on the Northern Iowa club team back in 1997 or so. We went down and played a team at the Maharishi school of management. It was made up of a bunch of the students at the school. It was in this old, run down stadium, kind of in a bowl shape into the ground. I guess the place used to be an actual community collage before the hopping folks arrived.

That team was the absolute worst, nastiest, most dirty team I have every played. I played defense, and their forwards were always kicking you in the ankles, grabbing your clothes, tripping you, and one even spit on one of our players. Of course, they made sure the ref was looking the other way.

I got an elbow in my nose about 6 times that game.

For a bunch of meditating, hopping folks that supposedly want world peace, they were one of the worst teams I have ever played against.

What awesome objective coverage from the Moonie paper:

although he had a famous falling out with the rock stars when he discovered them using drugs at his Himalayan retreat.

how about, after they saw him trying to bone Mia Farrow?
