My favorite part of that book is where he decides to dedicate a portion of his life to learning the ways of pleasuring a woman.

I've never read this book. I was just referring to the Buddha by his original name. Is this book any good? Worth reading?

Its good if you're in one of those self-help, seeking enlightenment phases.

One of the lighter-toned philosophy books I recall was 'The Way of Zen', by Alan Watts. Watts almost always wrote in a lighter style, and it shows best here.

Not bad, though I'm sure the real beer drinkers would call me blasphemous for liking a dark beer this sweet.

I liked "Buddhism is not what you think" as an introduction to the zen religion.

meh, super hoppy and high IBR beers get old after a while IMO. Sometimes you need a break. I really like dark lagers, which lack a lot of the characteristics associated with dark beers but can be even more dark in color. Drink what tastes good... unless it's femmy, sugary garbage, in which case, you're a gaping vagina and I will mock you mercilessly.
