He died yesterday at age of 75.  He was courageous as well as outrageous.  He used to make me laugh so much, but he was much more than that.  Two things he said I'm in total agreement.  First, Rakugo (his story telling art) means accepting karma (or inevitable).  That's what I think about writing.  Second, broaden your world was his advice to his disciples.    Don't I agree more?
