I found the Joseph Campbell and the Hero's Journey' bit especially interesting, It gives a non-mythic version of Campbell's Journey of the Hero, which is coincidentally, completely self-centred, with no community aspect. (Me? Me! Me! Me Me Me Me Me!).

Therein lies a clue to my definition of the sacred.

I guess we could call it the dark side: what happens when *another type* of Californian lays hands on the Campell metamyth. :)

Amex or Diners?
