There are actually three Dalai Lamas...the first is the one that was picked by the monks themselves, and he is the one we know about, who fled Tibet, and still lives in exile...

Then the Chinese govt picked their own Dalai Lama....cannot remember what my son said about where he is, but he is locked up, or something like that...

And then there is a third Dalai Lama...dont have any info about him, save that he too, is also I think locked up somewhere...

What an absolute mess...

I wonder how it is affecting intergalactic travel
when the ETs arrive, they stop in a monastery in Tibet first
(which is expecting them)
and spend about a week of hospitality from the monks
then they go to wherever is their destination here on Earth

from what I have read the Tibetans are far out
they know how to use their mind so they dont get cold in their extremely cold climate
not all Tibetans ae enlightened tho
I read an autobiography of a Tibetan lama
and he came from a rich family of Tibetan social climbers
(he's the one who knows how to talk cat, if he met Dizzy, Dizzy could tell him his whole life before he arrived with you)

Dizzy could tell him every minute of how he spends his time while you and BigDom are in Seattle

I should go now....Dizzy is whining, and I should give him some extra attention, that he can store up, for when we are gone this weekend...

And I have to go to bed early, as I am getting up early tomorrow...need to go to the grocery store, then want to go shopping for some new clothes, then need to mail off Palos package of three bears...BigDom was going to do it on his way home from Tacoma, but I forgot to give him the address....so the three bears took a trip to Tacoma with BigDom...then they came home...so tomorrow, I need to get them sent on their way to you....

So for now, I am saying goodnight, and see ya all tomorrow...

I cant figure out why the Chinese want to occupy Tibet
altho now it is very lucrative for them
cause of the trekkers and climbers
the chinese government in Tibet sells the permit to climb everest, and I think it might be close to $60,000/person
