my colleagues are in the adjoining room bouncing a ball,
discussing the impending arrival of the Dalai Lama:

what would you ask him?

bounce

i don't know. that's a hard one.

bounce

i heard he got beaten with a golden whip.

bounce

gold?

bounce

not actually gold. colored gold.

bounce

isn't that violence?

bounce

then you wouldn't need a ticket to see him.

bounce

you could take my bag.

bounce

do you think my camera will get in?

bounce

it's cool we all got tickets.

bounce

what would you ask him?

bounce

i would ask him his childhood.

bounce

what happened to your curls?

bounce

it's all for the HHDL. i donated them for love.

bounce

i wonder what's going to happen.

bounce

i don't think it's going to change my life or anything.

bounce

i'm being interviewed on TV tomorrow.

bounce

what time?

i have to be there at 4:30am. it airs at 5.

bounce

bounce

then i'm going to sleep in the office.

bounce

he's goofy.

bounce

i could Tweet for him.

bounce

someone already does.

bounce

does he have a Facebook?

bounce

i don't know.

bounce

my camera looks semi-professional.

bounce

do you think he has his own bathroom on every plane.

bounce

he had to have gall bladder surgery.

bounce

some people think he has magical healing powers.

bounce

i admire him to an extent.

bounce
