Walk in the rain

I didn't have an umbrella with me this morning as I walked to the subway. So I walked as much as I could under the awnings of the stores on First Avenue. I was listening to an interview with Lama Marut, a Buddhist who looks a bit like Joe Pesci and sounds like Spiccoli from Fast Times at Ridgemont High. And yet the interview with him was just great. I didn't even mind the rain. It meshed quite well with the book I'm reading now by Max Weber, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism.
