Let me get philosophical here for a moment.

I like to have little philosophical moments.

That is God, my friend.

This is God working through you.

That is the magic of the universe just streaming through you.

Like you said, it's there one moment, it's not there the next.

Either you're in it, either the flow is there and it's just coming out you or it's not.

I imagine when I watch comedians like yourself and you're on and you're hitting and it's funny and you're in a room and you're commanding that room,

You know, I think even Jerry said this in a different way is that I just tune out and let it flow through me.

It's just coming through me.

Right.

It's like you pulling it out of thin air.

Very interesting.

I don't do TM, but I do meditate.

I've been interested in it.

You know who started talking about it that got me interested in it was actually Howard Stern a number of years ago.

I don't know, 20 years ago, he started talking about how he was doing TM.

And I thought, what in the world is he?

And then I read about it, but I've been meditating for years and years.

And it can be really difficult to get to that place, to quiet the mind, to be in the spot, to get in the flow, whatever the fuck you want to say.
