The worst poet in the English language/Buddhist links

The wonderful, or execrable, depending on your point of view, William McGonagall.

Since I converted to Buddhism a few months back I get a lot of questions about it from my friends. The best resource I can point to is this Wikipedia page. The BBC guide is here, and the FWBO guide here. There are some excellent freely downloadable texts here: I particularly recommend this one.

On an unrelated note, well done to Tim Ireland for keeping an eye on Parliament's attempts to ignore protest. His rather funny story is here. We should laugh at them, and then think, and then make the buggers listen....
