This is pretty great.<\/p>\n

Susan Sarandon on Jimmy Kimmel talking about Burning Man, and hosting a ceremony there for Timothy Leary’s ashes.<\/p>\n

It’s amazing to feel the air of sheltered, comfort-seeking, aristocratic entitlement flowing through Jimmy Kimmel’s wimpy, immature Being as he embarrassingly tries to have a conversation about Burning Man with Susan Sarandon.<\/p>\n

I suspect his energy is representative of most of Hollywood.<\/p>\n

I’d love to see a side by side juxtaposition of a day in the life of Susan Sarandon at Burning Man with a day in the life of a typical Hollywood celebrity during the Saturday when the Man Burns…<\/p>\n

Comedically, in Hollywood, I see Lulu Lemon yoga pants, with Shih Tzus in sports cars, having psuedo-spiritual yogic awakening experiences demarcated by narcissistic selfies, followed by an afternoon of meaningless cocktail gossip, embellished by psuedo-spiritual tantric sex with lines of coke whisping off the naked surgically perfected breasts of a high priced escorted. This scene would be cut with them lying in bed with look of self-satisfied smug bliss gracing their shallow face.<\/p>\n

Fade to black as we then witness a procession of lights, music, signing and dancing as Timothy Leary’s ashes have one last caress of the divine barren desert of the Playa before evaporating into the heavens.<\/p>\n

Two lives.<\/p>\n

Both but a dream.<\/p>\n

The sword of Prajnic invective over and out.<\/p>\n

Can somebody call in some gods of compassion to clean up this disintegrated darkness?<\/p>\n
