We are “about to grow very big.” It’s always the next thing. And the last thing is just conveniently forgotten. Not going to comment much on this goofiness. It speaks for itself.
But the real reason is that I am taking a vacation for the next week so postings and blog admin will likely be sporadic.
There are plenty of commentators here who articulate the insanity.
These letters remind me of the correspondence a parent may receive from an unruly and rebellious child away from home. They have zero trust in the person they write to–and then ask for money anyway. Of course, what makes these letters even worse is the fact that the man-child already sits on billions and would not hesitate to fundraise multiple dollars for every buck truly “needed” to complete a project.
The COB transported his favorite SUSHI Restaurant
in Santa Monica to the Freewinds for a party.
Of course this was saving the Planet ( Sushi Rundown)
Creating a World without War, crime, and insanity,
How can you have any of that with 5 star Sushi
for all your buddies who are multi million dollar donors ?.
Party On Tom !!!!
Here’s a question…. Where do Floridians go for Spring Break?
Enjoy Rinders!
Just knowing that youndo not have to return to a frothing 5’1 Philly Cheese Steak must make it all worthwhile
It’s great out here!
You can take a vacation anytime you want, without having to get a sec check first, and without having to get permission from the nazi hierarchy, and without having to worry the whole time that the stats will crash and you’ll be in deep do-do when you get back (assuming you could ever actually get approval to go). Alternatively you would worry the stats will go up while you’re gone. That would prove that you are the “who”for the previous downstats.
Have a great time on your vacation!
May you have a fantastic vacation
See you in a few days!
The Hubbard quote asserts an individual is as big as the universe but is diminished by doubts about his ability to engage it in battle. In other words, if you THINK you can “take on” the whole universe then you’re as big as the universe. Historically, this kind of thinking is attainted through generous applications of ETOH ( getting drunk). Otherwise it might be better to not adopt Hubbard’s interpretation of life as an adversary but go with a wiser vision in which you are not the opponent of the universe, you are at one with it and in service to it.
Therein lies the seed of scientology’s inevitable demise. Thinking you’re separate from the whole and that you can make it bend to your will is called, “hubris”. “Defying the Gods” is the stuff of Greek tragedy and Shakespearean comedy. It’s also a suicidal business model not to mention a spiritual path to Cuckoo Land.
Hi Roger Hornaday, As usual your post makes perfect sense.You are perfect reason and love, Ann.
It’s true. The overall game of $cientology is us against them. They are making enemies of parents. Then they make enemies of the parents friends. Nowadays all of the parents friends and their friends and their friends et al are all new found enemies.
I guess unless you are firmly ensconced in the cluster of $cientology Inc. YOU are an enemy.
Man, that group is getting sooooooo small.
True, LDW. Small and very, very “solid” ( the Scientology definition of which is NOT good).
Roger – I like your commentary. I imagine there are people out in the field still working from this viewpoint. The lure is great. There’s no reference date so he might have modified this, but to be a god or ultimate creator always seemed to be the goal.
To a lesser extent, most people probably would be happy with a few super powers – laughter
This thing about getting projects completed in the future is so lame. Sometimes when I see things like this my mind rambles back to a skinny, completely non-tech-trained charming yet evil woman who used to scream at us in her shrill Aussie voice I WANT IT NOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!!!!!! GET IT DONE NOOOWWWWWWW!!!! I guess that technique still doesn’t work that well.
That’s Old School.
Jane Kember replaced it with
“ALWAYS KICK THEM WHEN THEY ARE DOWN
BECAUSE WHEN OTHER TIME DO YOU HAVE A CHANCE ?”
Fabulous job Mike… Enjoy !
I was so glad of the succinct LRH quote talking about which bit of the universe I’m supposed to be fighting in. And the new that we are leaving the Golden Age of Expensive Broken Promises and into the Golden Age of Expansive Global Dissemination. I can’t wait for the 24/7 talk shows emanating straight from the Anus of Short Arse Productions. And with all those folks lined up at the phones ready to take my order for being leather bound who can resist?
Mike have a well deserved good break from this crazyness. We can guarantee there will be plenty more when you get back.
Hi Mike, May the sun shine brightly, the winds blow softly and the sky glow all the gorgeous colors at sunset for you,Christie and those boys.Enjoy your hard and well earned Vacation! Love to you both,Annie.
Have fun on your VA CA Mike and catch a lot of fish!
Dave,
Can you do something BIG so Mike will have something to report on when he gets back from vacation?
Second that!
Yo Dave,
Will you be doing something like a Cult Talk show where you can have guests on like Tom or JT or Krusty and do a David Letterman style program? You know, a little joking and degrading ……. hell you might even get a few of us apostates to show up and you could interview us and kick sand in our face and make yourself look real good to the Kool Aide Klan. Yep, just tune in to KSHIT for a weekly dose of Dave!
Whaddaya say good buddy?
Holy shit, Coop! I want to be one of those bitter apostates that shows up for the show! Can you get me in?
Have a good vacation, Mike! Look forward to your return! You rock!
Gag me with a spoon. Golden Age of Global Dissemination. Acronym: GAG’D Exactly what they do to their sheeple. It’s not out with the old and in with the new … it’s sell off all the old and then sell sell the pretend new.
Good one. Love the GAG’D acronym.
Have a good time off.
These emails are REstimulating the torture of working at Bridge Publications and Golden Era Productions daily shoving books, tapes, meters and jewelry (oh, and car badges!) down people’s throats STARTING with the local regges (it spell checks that to regrets) at AOLA, ASHO and CC.
I remember when a new book set came out – The Basics. All glitzy, colorful and shiny. The week before we forced D/FBO’s to buy up all of the greenies we had. The Greenies are The Basics but they were in little green bound books. Nope, there is no return policy…SORRY (not)!
Your staff haven’t been paid you say? They could get BOOK COMMISSIONS though! So how about you DO something about your condition and earn a book commission!?! Time to be CAUSE over your pay you imbecile.
When I heard you couldn’t return the books – I knew my days with this rip off group were numbered.
What do the four opening paragraphs about Hotlanta facts have to do with Diarrhetics leatherbounds? Are they taking promo clues from HAPI? The goofy is not just strong, it’s fully encompassed incongruity.
I’d like to give the whole ANZO crew a gift: tertiary syphilis. They’re already batshit to begin with, so no one will be able to tell the difference.
Mike, have a much better time traveling than I’m having right now. Nine in the morning and I’m already ready to go postal.
Just. Spit. Coffee. ?
Wonder if they have already started dispatching volunteer ministers in Brussels. Way to Happiness precept #9 would act like calming oil on the waters.
You know, I don’t think they’ll do anything about Brussels. They just beat legal action in Belgium on a technicality, an action that would have been the end for them there. The smart thing to do would be to lay low for a bit and…wait a sec, I said “smart thing”, didn’t I? They’ve never done the smart thing. Of course they’ll use this tragedy for financial gain. And just to shove it in the noses of the Belgian prosecutors, all the requests will come from CLO EU.
the “amount of randomity” you care to confront ?? whaaaaa??!!
sometimes all you can do is put on some Kesha and laugh – have a great vacation!

Fantastic Mike, enjoy your vacation’s time.
It is fun been out here, with vacations, enjoying family, having fun with friends while, despite the pretense, the “Golden Ages” keeps fading as the time goes by.
Hey Mike, Just a yes/no question-Do you and Marty communicate anymore? That’s all.
A friend forwarded this link to me. At first I thought it was the usual paid blah blah about how they are discriminated against that scientology puts out. However only the top half is a statement from scientology, the bottom half tears apart the blah blah. Even yahoo news is catching on.
https://au.news.yahoo.com/nsw/a/31164684/more-info-statement-from-the-church-of-scientology/
RB every day this week?
“We are about to grow very big” in the first letter almost works with “That’s what she said” 🙂
I don’t think that would work in Demento the Midget’s case….
Yes. I had a friend tell me how some scios she works with were going on and on about how great this new studio was going to be for scientology – and – oh yes, there are two celebrities that are not scientologists that are going to be promoting it. Huh? Really? That’s a brain twister.
The bigger brain twister is scientologists, INies, these days don’t really even blink at out points (like what about the multimillion dollar studio that the church already owns – and that’s just a stunningly obvious one).
I don’t think INies would see an out point if it came at them screaming “I’m an out point!’ It’s as if scientologists have said to david miscavige, “Just tell us something – anything – we’ll ‘believe’ it; just don’t tell us we gave up our families for nothing.”
McCarran, I agree. With glaring outpoints staring them in the face, they swallow whatever bulshit Miscavige feeds them and shout Hip Hip Hooray. They are hooked on hype, effectively begging for lies, needing and wanting bigger and bigger ones so that they don’t have to confront the Too Gruesome…and Miscavige gets this, and obliges.
I know a number of highly trained and otherwise intelligent still ins who would be hard to fool about most outpoints but when it pertains to the cult, they’re awfully good at being unaware.
Its sad, because one day something is going to happen, and their twisting and turning away, their dubbing in, their explaining and excusing are not going to work because the truth will be right there in their faces and they will be forced to confront and deal with it.
Enjoy your holiday Mike!
If you had waited a bit you could have spent your time watching the Scn Talk Show. Oh well. 🙂
WDAH’s completed?
Number of auditors made?
‘Nuf said…
Very old – and now discarded – goals. $$$ is IT, the only thing.
In other words Demento the Midget is trying to get rid of the old stuff so he can bring in a whole range of new old stuff to sell at prices that would make the Mafia cringe. The Planetary Dissemination E-meter will be glitter green instead of glitter blue (that’s a grand added to the price for starters). The Leatherbounds (without the word “books” added all I could think of was sheeple wearing leather gear and/or lederhosen) will be brown leather with new typefaces (that’s, at the least, a grand added to the price).
Green instead of blue – a green e-meter…hmmm…this is a game changer for me. Have to give this some serious thought.
@aqua, you are easily swayed. I’m still holding out for the purple, pink and turquoise one to match my easy bake ultimate oven. Come to think of it – maybe I will just buy another easy bake oven. They are a lot cheaper.
http://shewearsmanyhats.com/easy-bake-ultimate-oven/
And it looks enough like the emeter that no one will know the difference.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-meter
@ Valerie. Thank you. Your needle is floating.
Holy cow! I can feel her needle floating here at the beach! Now THAT’S a floating needled. It probably swung 7 times……..
The Green E meters used to be Blue but sat
in a warehouse so long the mold turned them, well you get the picture.
Yes, Jose, at Flag it is being called Warehouse To Table Auditing and sales of these meters in stunning mold-green are simply out the roof as upstat Scientologists continue rocketing down the Bridge.
Huh. I thought it was falling into the abyss….
“We are entering a Golden Age of Global Dissemination – though, of course, our biggest celebrity whale, Mr. Tom Cruise, AKA Big Being #3 has to keep his trap shut about us in the media because our PR is so God-awful it might negatively impact sales of his movies, and for this reason John Travolta and Elizabeth Moss and the rest of the Celebrity Centre Hollyweirds have to keep quiet too, and so should you, by the way – but never mind, this is all part of brilliant COB’s grand plan and we are STILL disseminating GLOBALLY, meaning, not around here but somewhere on the globe, you know, and never mind to whom, OK, because it IS happening and we ARE entering our Golden Age of Global Dissemination, and, if everyone on THIS end would just cooperate and keep their heads down and their mouths shut about Scientology, we just might make it”.
Hi Kronomex, Thank you for the image of sheeple in lederhosen and/or leather gear.Also I put those old flying goggles on them.Hysterical.Always enjoy your posts.Love Ann.
Oh Colin Davie, wasn’t he once the WISE ED for ANZO? Actually a very nice person. I believe he gave away a very lucrative golfing career, and joined the sea org. It’s a real shame such a talented and 3rd & 4th dynamic individual is still drinking the kool aid.
Yes that’s him. Surprised to see he’s still in it.
You’re taking a freaking VACATION??? You gotta lotta noive (as they used to say in Brooklyn). Well … ok … I’ve calmed down … a little. Have a great holiday Mike and the very best and tons of fantabulous fun for you, your wife and sons!!!!
Enjoy your vacation Mike.
Yes, enjoy, Mike!
Leatherbound Dianetics, my particular peeve. What a waste of money and cattle.
I second that, Mike. I hope you and your wonderful family have the time of your lives! You certainly deserve it.
OSD when is the release date for ideal surf boards?
I want leatherbound.
Being leatherbound would earn someone a sec check. No kinky stuff allowed in the CoS. Did I misread something here?
Doug, that’s a great question! I’m glad you asked that. All Ideal surfboards will be released when Demento the Midget travels to Maui and rides the surf spot known as Jaws on an extra big day (40 foot +) Now, you may say that’s kind of cruel. And I do understand. But, seeing that he’s declared himself a Natural OT, he should, this should be a piece of cake for him, right? Ok, ok…Maybe that is a bit much to expect from the dwarf. Tell you what I’m going to do. I’ll release the Ideal Surfboards when Corn of the COB gives a 3 hour press conference on live TV. Take your pick, folks!
Either option sounds great.
“Internet, television, news and talk shows, documentaries and public service announcements”
OK, Great idea. Disseminate across all those pathways. Wait a minute… talk shows? Who appears on talk shows a lot who’s a Scientologist? It’s on the tip of my tongue… uh… Tom Cruise! Why is that erstwhile Scientology spokesman, who has the biggest potential dissemination megaphone on Earth, absolutely silent about Scientology in his innumerable talk show appearances?
Have a great vacation, Mike. RB this Friday?
To answer your question, his handlers have finally gotten through his thick skull that talking about scio is a death knell for him. So when he agrees to do any sort of interview, he gets the agreement from the program people to NEVER mention scio. He will, however, still do the occasional scio “big event” and show off his tacky medal to all those loving and blinded hundreds who believe his dream of BIG BEING #3 and that anyone gives a damn.
Right, Peter. That’s how he rolls now. Its called, “preaching to the choir”. Don’t talk about Scientology to anyone who isn’t a Scientologist 🙂
Whoa! That’s really going to crimp the style of body routers.
Body Router: Hi! Can I talk to you about, ummmmm, about…..ahhhhhh
Wog: What the fuck are you talking about?
Body Router: Errrrrrr….I mean…..ahhhhhhh.
Wog: No wonder you people are hated as you are. You can’t communicate worth a shit! Maybe you should learn how to do that. And why is your face getting so red? You like a tomato! Fuck, I’m outta here…
Oh yeah, Tom Cruise’s motivation for not discussing his religion is clear to all of us out here in the world. What I was wondering is what must the clammies be thinking when their most public of public Scientologists goes on talk shows and keeps mum, all the while their internal PR talks up dissemination via talk shows.
Hi hgc10, Thank you, your post makes an excellent point I had not thought about.Cos the great do as I say not as I do ” religion “.Love, Ann
Yeah, he’s really dreaming when it comes to TV talk shows. Tom Cruise has forbidden any talk about Scientology in his media interviews. Wonder why…
Have a great vacation Mike.
