Dharma-Burger? Yoga-Burger? Either way, it IS "very zen."*
Thanks to reader Elizabeth H, who sent on a scan of a new mailing from mega-retailer Target. (Or, as you know you call it, Tarjay.)

Target included this in a recent mailing. If shopping from home is what it's all about, I don't guess I'm ready for enlightenment yet. I love reading the Horse.
Bows, or _/|\_
Thanks, Elizabeth, and _/|\_ to you, too.
...Funny thing about this one: when it first came thru via email, the image was so big that we didn't see the little "very zen"* headline -- we just saw the big yoga practitioner. Which led us to ask: Is this a Dharma-Burger? Or is it maybe a Yoga-Burger?
I've wondered for a while whether or not the Horse wanted to get into the business of documenting Yoga-Burgers. Dharma-Burgers may be popping up in the most surprising places, but Yoga-Burgers? They're EVERYWHERE. ...I'd never be able to leave the house!
So I'm not sure if we'll be including them. I want to stay on point, as it were. But if you guys send stuff that's on the line, it'll likely make the cut, just as this one did.
In the meantime, thanks to you all... and don't forget to keep your mind, body, and budget balanced.
(Ecccch.)
* As if the word "Zen" hadn't been co-opted beyond belief already -- notice how it appears in lower-case in this ad? The Horse predicts that we'll all be seeing a lot more of that kind of thing...
