The Holiness I used to know.

As reported in the NYT today:
Tom Waits, who closed the show in his usual guise as a lowlife sage, wisecracked: "So his holiness goes to bed at 7:30? That's not the holiness I used to know."

He's such a kidder.

Anyway, the concert was a benefit for an outfit called Healing the Divide that has what looks like a kick-ass program for getting central Asian cultural resources online. Their site itself is a little skinny on content, but they're just starting out. They also have links (organizational, not just the html kind silly) to other Buddhist cultural projects. This aligns so nicely with Internet Archive and digitizing projects far and wide.

And if Tom Waits is doing a benefit for them, sign me up.
