Going, going..going Pear-shaped!

So, since my last post, I?ve been suffering from such severe culture shock I?ve been suffering from a kind of creative constipation. I remember arriving at Kopan, where everyone was armed to the teeth with anti-diarrheals, antibiotics, anti-malarials. So they were totally taken aback when they were unable to defacate for days on end ? their alimentary canals clogged and glued up by the starchy Tibetan food and sweet tea. I must say, compared to Asia, Europe and the UK are somewhat uninspiring, to say the least. Anyway, I?ll be away, in a couple of weeks, to San Francisco, living in the Western Addition and working for Liberation magazine, the organ of the Liberation Prison Project. More of that later. I'm currently in Glasgow, enduring the gourmet hospitality of one of my dearest and closest friends, Brian, who's determined to send me to SF with a bigger belly than the one I last left Glasgow with. This, no doubt, is to ensure that I nobody mistakes me for fresh meat, and that I don't end up with a "social" disease - although he's clearly not heard about gainers and encouragers...
