Thursday Funnies
AOLA 500 500 what? 500 people left in LA who will admit they are scientologists? Free food = fundraiser Sounds a-m-a-z-i-n-g And there should be thousands who have been watching right? You want to bet they don't find a SINGLE person who knows the CSN even exists? It's the old problem... People don't buy into the answers to all of life because the building isn't "upstat and inviting" enough. Exclusive briefing This briefing has been being done every week for years. How exclusive is it at this point? Especially when … [Read more...]
“Ron Says”
Unfortunately, this is an oft-heard phrase in the scientology bubble. "Ron says..." or "Do what Ron says". It does not matter if what "Ron says" is gibberish or pablum or ridiculous. The fact that HE said it makes it worth repeating and recognizing as an invaluable tool for life. The quote above is a classic example. It is pompous pontification offering no solution -- merely meanderings couched as if it is sage wisdom. They even include spelling mistakes. And they also what is today a very offensive term (but of course they cannot change it, because this is what Ron said). This simple … [Read more...]
Ideal Org Desperation
More proof that the ideal org program has devolved into desperate insanity. This is a NEW piece from Perth Org. Apparently, this ideal org, that Miscavige yanked his ribbon on a month ago now, was incapable of getting their filing done before moving into their $20 million dollar building. And still hasn't managed it to this day! Remember how this went on for months and months -- just look back at the Thursday Funnies. The begging and cajoling to try to get their backlogged filing done was legendary. Like every other "ideal" org. That an organization cannot muster enough manpower to … [Read more...]
More Ideal Org Idiocy
Some of the claims made about Ideal Orgs defy belief. Even for a cynical bitter defrocked apostate on the fringes of the internet. This is the latest fundraising pitch for the Detroit ideal org. Detroit org has been there for half a century (perhaps more?) and it has created absolutely NO impact. They admit nobody in Detroit even knows what scientology is. They probably know the word and the information from the internet and The Aftermath and Going Clear -- but in the minds of scientologists that means they don't know what scientology REALLY is. They are only aware of the … [Read more...]
Time, Place, Form and Event Part 12
The twelfth and penultimate installment of the first draft of a novel written by our old friend Terra Cognita. Our Sunday Serial. Terra welcomes all suggestions and feedback -- this is draft -- you can note them in the comments. Chapter 67 I thought about calling Detective Gardner as I drove to the ER at Cottage Hospital. I thought about calling Dev. I considered calling my dad. I probably should have dialed 911. But I didn’t. I mostly listened to Roxy saying how sorry she was she had gotten me into all this. I told her not to worry. A couple of hours later a young ER d … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies on Saturday
As a result of a holiday, flying across country and mostly the deterioration of my gray matter, I mistakenly thought Thursday was only Wednesday and I missed the Thursday Funnies... But never fear -- here they are in all their glory (?) Perth on a roll Nobody graduating anything, but they have brought in a TV show contestant to try to attract some interest Wizard of OH With a special skit to "take our ideal org to a done." Huh? Strange ideas You know what you said has nothing to do with what building you are in? Doesn't even register on … [Read more...]
