Damn you Bhagavad Gita

Apr 30, 2007 21:24

So I'm walking back from lunch today when this shaven headed guy walks up to me on the street and starts telling about this book which he's carrying several copies of. He tells me it's about karma and several western thinkers who have famously appreciated it. He also asked me if I knew what a monk was. Yes dude. I may not know full contents of your book, but I have seen Kung Fu.
Anyway I figured it was as good a time as any to pick up a copy, so I gave him a donation and went on my way figuring I'll read it after the fourth Foundation book. Anyway I kept thinking that, "I am become death, the destroyer of worlds" line that Oppenheimer quoted watching the first atomic bomb go off at the trinity test site (which the monk totally neglected to mention). Since the I've heard/seen it referenced twice more.
Is Armaggedon following me?
If the world blows up today it's totally me. I've been warned. I just don't know what to do about it. So...um...get out of the cities...to high ground. Watch for zombies or any other undead creatures hungry for brains. Don't run with scissors and all the rest.
You have now been warned too.
