I'm not quite sure why someone would have a duck on their head.

I was speaking to an American in Kathmandu who was doing an intensive study in Tibetan, living with an Tibetan family in Boudanath

and that is the great stupa.
Anyway I was doing my usual meditation on America and he said that he was completely sick of the whole business, of having to consider, justify, think, explain or whatever.
Later at dinner I stated with some (perhaps drunken) force that the thing about America came out of anxiety and affection.
When I left he specially sought me out to shake my hand, which I found touching.
There was another American there who was an acupuncturist.
He asked my nephew if his Tibetan prayer beads were made out of the bones of Aborigines. We almost fell off our chairs laughing.
Later a Canadian Buddhist helped us gang up on him about health care.
