The Warped Woodturner (TWW) is a local artist traveling his artist's journey in a suburb of Springbrook, WI (pop. 536). TWW's creative calling is to use a wood lathe to make useless objects from locally-sequestered organic carbon for tourists to bring back to the city to give to people they had to buy something for but do not like that much. His target market is the senior citizens since their vision is not as good as it used to be so cannot see the defects as well. His marketing jingle is: “Bowls as simple as their creator”.

TBA (who will go back to being TWW soon) experiences satori

Satori according to the Zen people is the state of sudden indescribable intuitive enlightenment. This is what TBA (soon TWW) experienced during his recent vision quest.  The spiritual assistants put a mask over his face so he could breath in enlightenment and about 5 minutes (or so it seemed) later the head spiritual advisor was telling TBA (soon TWW)  the vision quest was over and if he did not experience any enlightenment then he slept through it and it was his problem. He still had to pay.  At that very moment TBA (soon TWW) realized he was going to be who he was regardless of how much of this New Age enlightenment BS he tried. This was his satori. So in the coming days this blog goes back to the way it was.  TBA (soon TWW) apologizes to any loyal viewers who expected any vicarious enlightenment from TBA's vision quest.  Like they say in the East: "he who has no expectations cannot be disappointed".
