Except for one thing: One of the books, The Art of Happiness , which collects and simplifies the Dalai Lama's philosophy, got the Shopping Avenger to thinking. The Shopping Avenger does not make light of the Dalai Lama or of the notion that there is more to life than the impatient acquisition of material goods. But the Shopping Avenger also believes that the Dalai Lama has never tried to rent a truck from U-Haul. One correspondent, B.R., wrote in with this cautionary tale: "Last weekend, I went to San Francisco to help my brother and his family move into their first house. B.R. continues--as if you don't know what happened already--"I went to U-Haul with my brother to get our 'reserved' truck.
