Tonight, after our last workout at my Tai Chi class, our instructor led us through some relaxation routines. But when he said the words, "blank your mind", I had to laugh, because I observed that my generation (and I'm talking mainly to the geeks here, of course) is unable to hear anything about clearing one's mind without it instantly being filled with images of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
Damn you, Ray Stantz; you blew meditation for all of us.
