Pasadena Ideal Org in peak production mode…
Various reports have come in about the scene in Pasadena Org. Apparently, they have been being “shamed” by the “production” at LA Org with their massive bodyrouting effort fail (I guess they didnt read the recent post about this).
But this is not a new “management” tactic in scientology. In fact, it is pretty much par for the course. Make every org believe that others orgs are doing well and they are the only ones failing.
According to the reports there are about 25 Sea Org members hovering around the Pasadena org to “inspire” staff to get things going. They are passionate to get “the field” activated. They are urging the FSMs to “drive” people in on the org.
They are circulating a 3 1/2 page list of about 150 people who have “blown” from the Basics Courses so that the other, non-blown, active members can “nudge” them back into the Course room. This list includes a Who’s Who of leading scientologists from that area.
Pasadena “Ideal Org” opened nearly 5 years ago. In that time, the Division 6 course rooms have never really been used for any length of time. They have not even cleared their own building much less the city.
And now this email drops and it confirms everything our Special Correspondents have been telling us for a couple of weeks.
If you will recall, Rona was exhorting her troops to “beat Taiwan” and stay “number one” in the world not too long ago. That this empty, sad org is even in a discussion about the top org on the planet tells you the state of most of the orgs in the flat out and horizontal scientology world.

– Highest EVER Purification Rundown Delivery and completions two weeks in a row!
– Highest EVER Survival Rundown Delivery (hours) and two MORE OT completions on the Survival Rundown – Andrea Wilson and Tina Phillips!!
Through the standard Enlightenment actions there are more public signing up to go Clear at Pasadena than EVER before in our history, and individual public signing up for Student Hat, Purification Rundown and the Survival Rundown is at an all time high!!
There were three new staff arrivals onto post in Pasadena this past week including:
– Kim Nestler (Tech Executive)
– Carol Mathy (Division 6 Executive)
– Desiree Valdez (Dissemination Division staff)
There are three Golden Age of Tech II staff members who have arrived to staff in recent weeks as well: Bruce Johnson (now Golden Age of Tech Phase II Level IV auditor), Nelly Northcross (Golden Age of Tech Phase II Level IV auditor) and Cheyenne Savage (Golden Age of Tech Phase II supervisor).
SO: What you need to do is:
a) Come into the org this week and get through your OWN personal GAT II services. We are here to service you morning until night time including the weekends until 10pm. You can put in EXTRA time over the holidays so as to move through your own personal Bridge actions even faster. What better way to spend your holidays than with LRH!
b) Bring all of your friends and family INTO the org, they can see the applicable enlightenment films applicable and learn what their next service on the Bridge is, and then signed up and moved onto their correct next service. If you need any assistance call the org and you WILL get helped.
c) Actively FSM public into the Pasadena org for ANY service at all.
We stand ready to service YOU and all the public in the Pasadena area on ALL Golden Age of Tech Phase II services that we deliver. This includes all Golden Age of Knowledge courses, all Life Improvement Courses, all Division 6 services, the full Academy, the Purification Rundown and Survival Rundown.
WE PLAN TO BE THE FIRST LA AREA ORG (OUTSIDE OF LA ORG) TO BECOME SAINT HILL SIZE – THAT MEANS A BIG BOOMING ORG AND IN ORDER TO DO THAT WE NEED YOU INTO ACTION ON A RIGHT NOW BASIS!
Ml, Sara and Rona
Executive Directors Pasadena Day and Foundation
P.S. Please feel free to pass this good news and direction along so we have an avalanche of production here in Pasadena!!!
How many of those “new staff” came from LA Org after they were given the boot? My guess would be all of them…
Perhaps it is time for someone to wander past Pasadena again and take some shots so we can see what this new “highest ever” production really looks like and why with all these “highest evers” they are getting so much heat. Or is it the 25 SO people in there that have stat pushed them up — and if so, where next? I bet NOT Inglewood, that place couldn’t be brought to life with a million volts and there are not enough non-white SO members to do the job anyway. Probably Orange County, it’s close enough for them to be bused in each day. What are they going to do with the disasters in Denver, Phoenix, Portland and Seattle? Let alone Nashville and Buffalo?
It really sucks to be an org.
UPDATE:
One of our Special Correspondents sent me this information and I didn’t see it for a few days. He was much more on the ball than I am! It confirms everything that is above and answers a mystery to me about an earlier post where I KNEW I recognized one of the people that were the subject of the post but I could not put my finger on it.
If you go back and look at the LA Org Bodyrouting post, you will discover:
“What better way to spend your holidays than with LRH!”
How about with family. Oh wait the church forced you to disconnect from your family. Well, come in and do the 2D Checksheet and see what we think a 2D might look like if we allowed it.
Way off topic here..want to wish all of you a merry Christmas,congratulate you for getting out..and wish you a wonderful new year…my heart goes out to you guys and all you have been through…I also wish to appeal to the generosity of you fine folks..I am not or have never been a scienrologist…but have been prolific in my reading and learning about this organized crime group calling itself a church..the human rights abuses are sickening to me and I warn everyone I know every chance I get. The problem I have though,is that I am limited to internet only as my budget is tight( husband double amputee to hip socket and on dialysis also has multiple surgeries coming up for bone infection,I am to go on dialysis myself within six mionths…violin strings yada yada)…anyhow…I am simply dying to read Marc Headley’s book Blown for good….if anyone has a copy they would be willing to part with…or better yet,Marc..if you read this…an autographed copy for xmas would be treasured….hint lol…my email is [email protected]
I can send you my snail mail address that way as I’m not comfortable posting it on public comments…. but i it doesn’t work out that’s ok too…I still wish you all happy holidays
In 2010 I got a phone call from SR. HCO FOLO WUS telling me that I was selected by RTC to be the SR. C/S Pasadena. I could smell that trap a mile away and of course I refused.
Body routing today is so out-reality to the S.O. that they might as well offer free beer and get a buzz going in the Org.
Now you’re talkin! Might as well get a real product.
I’m sorry, I’m a bit under the weather right now, but, did someone mention beer? Will Coop, Valerie, McCarran, Michael & Cindy be there? If so, PLEASE count me in.
It wouldn’t be a party without you, Old Surer Dude!
When a “Church” is reduced to promotion on Freebie Craigs list and “body routing” people off the street they are now on the ranks of Jehovah’s witness door-to-door and Hare Krishna s airport amubushes. (now illegal)
Now if they could only do as much business as Craigslist.

I was a Basic Books extension course blow. Why finish the course? They would only want more money for something else.
That’s why it’s called an extension course.
Like Tony says, I am so happy to be free!!!!!!!!!
People get lonely in life and want companionship so they will find ways to land themselves in these orgs and get tangled up with a recruiter. I’ve done that many times. When the recruiter gets about 8 inches in front of your face and looks deep into your eyes and tells you that you are a “big being” and tells you how much you are needed, it is really tempting. I’ve escaped that a few times successfully. And a couple of times I signed up. One time the recruiter was a good looking woman and all the hot females that were staff in one particular org were all dropping by to see me while I was in that org and it seemed they were flirting with me!!! At night I was imagining which one was going to be my girlfriend when I signed up. After a few days I finally told the recruiter “no” thinking at least she would be a good friend based on the meaningful talks we had had. But she never smiled at me again and she always looked like she was about to spit on me whenever I passed her in a hallway.
Tough love I guess.
It’s abusive to both the young Scn girls and the WOG boys (men) they recruit.
It is an effective recruitment technique but abusive to the girl’s – women’s human rights.
Wow. If you are the wife of a lawyer, and thus don’t need to actually earn any money by working, you too can be on staff at a church of scientology. You can even be the big gun ED (executive director).
Or if you’re the wife of an insurance guy, that works too for an ED post.
I’m really happy to know that my “…next Bridge steps may include the Purif….”.
Pardon me, while I jump back into my Delorean and travel a little further back in time.
Downtone middle aged dames in uniforms … and/or ignorant and uneducated young people who don’t know their subject and don’t know how to communicate what they’re “selling” (they need “enlightenment videos”) … Yeah, there’s a real formula for success in driving in hordes of public … oh, yeah … that’s the ticket … (and these are the masters of the subject of PR, the ARC Triangle, in ethnics, blah blah blah … the creators of a new civilization … ha ha … just the fact that they’re wearing those freakin’ uniforms tells you everything you need to know … enlightenment videos indeed!) …
And by the way, I would imagine that other than New York City, Pasadena org has the best potential body routing scene in the world a half a block down from Colorado Blvd in Old Pasadena, but they probably haven’t yet cognited that to be successful doing this, you HAVE TO DO IT EVERYDAY (for months and months). That’ll never happen folks. And with today’s toilet PR scene for Scientology, don’t think they can withstand the rejection they’re gonna get anyway. Stamina? We’ll see. I predict they’ll burn out by January 4th 2015.
I was so disappointed that after circling the Seattle morg three times, nobody tried to body route me!! Then again, I only saw one person there, behind the desk, head down.
Why is so hard to become ‘st hill size’? Isn’t st hill shrinking? Or are they all shrinking at the same rate?
Re: Pasadena “Ideal Org” opened nearly 5 years ago; the Division 6 course rooms have never really been used for any length of time; an empty, sad org; flat out and horizontal; the woman with the sneer in that earlier post is the ED Pasadena Fdn!
“I, JennyAtLAX, declare and state as follows:
“When we opened the Pasadena ‘Ideal Org’, I was there for a couple of months, under Mr. Miscavige’s direction—in communication with him every day, to establish that Church. Mr. Miscavige was there at the opening and he couldn’t have been less interested.
“That Church is exquisite and working on that was one of the most exciting projects I have ever done. I was getting the staff set up in the new facilities, uniformed, getting them trained—I even trained the ED Pasadena Fdn to sneer with just the right amount of scowl while body routing; in fact, she interned with me at LAX—grooving them in, working on promotion and reaching out to the local community, bringing in new public.
“Mr. Miscavige was bored, literally. All he would do while he was there was pretend to work on legal matters for a short time and then left. He did not want to have anything to do with servicing the public, caring for the staff, training them, nothing. Mr. Miscavige didn’t want to get involved. That gives a good sample of this man as a Scientology executive. He did not care about Scientology staff or the public.

YOU ARE ALL WRONG !!!!
Pasadena Body routers need to watch “Rawhide reruns”
Then hand out Bull whips!!
.Seriously not funny,
San Francisco had the same problem and Sea Org Mission selected an idiot staff to Body route.
This became an obvious problem so the solution was make a sandwich board for him front and back.
Instructed not to talk, just walk up and down the street.
After several hours several people came in.
Commendations all around for making go right !!!
True story.
I hope Mrs. Bowles is better at body routing than her husband is at legal letters. I just read this letter he wrote to the Tampa Bay Times in 1987. What a legal legacy…..
“It has come to our attention that [you] are considering publication of a review of L. Ron Hubbard, Messiah or Madman? by Bent Corydon … it is quite apparent and can be proved that your motives in reviewing this book … are to attack and denigrate the Church through any vehicle you find available. … If you forward one of his lies you will find yourself in court facing not only libel and slander charges, but also charges for conspiracy to violate civil rights. If you publish anything at all on it, you may still find yourself defending charges in court in light of what we know about your intentions. We know a whole lot more about your institution and motives than you think.”
The review and the letter were published, and there was no lawsuit.
Gee whiz and golly Tim, you really got us scared.
That reads just like Mr. and Mrs. name’s sake excrement.
I think they are frantically body routing people to get to the last few people before HBO and BBC close their doors completely.
Robert, I bet there is some racing-the-clock going on as the documentaries get closer to release. I’m starting to worry, though, that we may be letting our expectations for these films get unrealistically high.
I expect they will both be exceptionally well made and powerful. But I wonder how much impact even the best documentary can have in the United States, where such things don’t often seem to attract a mass audience. So on the whole I’m expecting the impact to be focused on what LRH would call opinion leaders, perhaps especially in the media. We’ve seen how the cult’s reputation has collapsed in the past few years. These films should drive it further into the ground in a more mainstream and credible way. They should be body-blows to an already-staggering zombie cult. But I don’t think they will completely change the public dialog.
Mike, I have a question: What is Scientology?
The 21st century religion that covets other people’s money. Also known as the fastest shrinking religious movement on earth.
Covetous, eh? Okay, I’m out.
Wow Mike. You are the master of words. The most succinct description I have heard to date.
You ought to give it one more chance Michael, maybe you could help correct that one outness.
That was a funny answer.
However, all joking aside, many people feel that corporate Scientology is not a genuine religious institution, but really a crooked and abusive business, operated as a destructive cult, and granted the perks and privileges of a religion as a result of decades of deception and harassment.
Without the use of deception and harassment, corporate Scientology would not have managed to erect for itself that “religious” umbrella of protection that, despite its shrinking membership, makes it a wealthy, tax exempt, destructive cult, and busy money-getting, slave-labor-using, and Intelligence-gathering operation.
The younger one with the long hair standing next to an older lady?
Update added to post concerning the ED’s Pasadena Day and Fdn being “apprenticed” at LA Org on how to bodyroute. In fact, the woman with the sneer in that earlier post is the ED Pasadena Fdn!
Oh Geez.
So sad. 🙁
They have no clue.
Hilarious. I’d like to meet the SO body routing superstar who is training these shlubs.
“b) Bring all of your friends and family INTO the org, they can see the applicable enlightenment films applicable and learn what their next service on the Bridge is, and then signed up and moved onto their correct next service. If you need any assistance call the org and you WILL get helped.”
My brain went numb by the time I got to the above senseless piece of drivel. The horror, the horror.
Oh my… but at least they are true to form. They have made their own beds and now must sleep in them. They truly have no one to blame but themselves – but that is way too high a concept for them to grasp.
Better to flog a dead horse than ride nothing at all I suppose – giddy up gee gee…
“Rolling rolling rolling, keep them doggies rolling, raw hide… ”
“See you at the end of the ride.”
obviously, someone is just being too “reasonable.” Once Captain David “he is NOT insane!” Miscavige finds that one person who is too reasonable, because no-one else can, things will be back to booming…
I walked into pasedena orgthistimelast year. Tom devo waited out side, it was a busy sat. On the st. Not a soul in the org. The kid who helped me said people were on course upstairs. It got to be a killer for there moral.
You sign a billion year contract and no one is interested in your game.
With apologies to the Bee Gees:
Trying to bring you back to Pasadena,
Begging you to come back to their home.
And the lights they’re all out in Pasadena
The staff that’s left is standing there alone.
Tried to hitch a ride to San Francisco,
Tried to do the things you wanna do.
Cuz the lights they’re all out in Pasadena
They brought you back the Sea Org messed with you.
Talk about the mOrg in Pasadena,
Speak about the people you have seen,
And the lights all they’re all out in Pasadena
And Pasadena is one place I have seen.
I will remember Pasadena
Have you seen my life, Mr. Jones?
Do you know what it’s like on the outside?
Don’t go talking too loud
You’ll cause a landslide, Mr. Jones
LOL Leaving Scientology one Bee Gees song at a time
This Org has lost it’s glory
Let’s start a brand new story
Now my friend right now there’ll be
No other time and I can show you
How my friend
I love the Bee Gees. Nice work Valerie!
Don’t forget Chicago!
It took me a while to wise up to the trick of pretending that all the other orgs were doing well while my own org was struggling because we were particularly incompetent (in actuality, our main problem was that management had put us into a building that was far too big and expensive for us due to unrealistic expectations of the Goodwill Games, but others tell that store better than I).
Unfortunately, Scientologists consider struggling orgs to be “entheta”, so they will not pass on that other orgs they have seen are small and struggling. I had to actually visit other orgs and meet lots of staff from lots of other orgs to piece together that the staff were almost completely unpaid in almost all of them, and that the staff had been unpaid since the inception of the org in most cases. Scientologists won’t tell you that, even when they know it, because it is “enemy line”.
The fact that it is true doesn’t matter. Scientologists want you to get the “good” out of Scientology, so they tend to hide, cover up, minimize the bad – and COB tries to blame it on the staff while he rapes them. It makes it so you cannot make an informed decision.
Excellent comment Gene.
“The fact that it is true doesn’t matter. Scientologists want you to get the “good” out of Scientology, so they tend to hide, cover up, minimize the bad”
Acting like the abused family they are. “Come on honey, hide your bruises and smile, we need them to think the best of us.”
It saddens me to know that, even though OC staff were among the best paid back in the late 80s, they were still (on average) far below the minimum wage. A few made more than that, but not many.
They are just propping up facades to keep the Ponzi scheme running….
In a Ponzi scheme when you spend way more effort on something than it’s worth, it’s a sign of the end of the Ponzi scheme.
Well Robert, they could always do a public promotion using The Happy Days motif and then they’d have a Fonzie scheme.
Damn! Double damn! I bow to your rhyming greatest “…a Fonzie scheme. Wish I’d thought of that, but, Noooooooooooooo. Now that’s some funny shit, Michael.
Robert,
How come YOU didn’t get the ‘cedilla’ when typing ‘facades’?
(Just trying to resolve the mystery of where the darn sign is on the keyboard….)
Greta
Zephyr, I don’t know how it works on Windows or Android. On a Mac, you hold down the Option key when typing “c” and voilà: ç
On an iPhone or iPad you tap-and-hold the letter “c” and a box pops up showing all the diacritical options. (This works with any letter with variants like ñ, ü, ø and so forth.)
“Bring all of your friends and family INTO the org, they can see the applicable enlightenment films applicable & learn what their next service on the bridge is & then signed up & move onto their correct next service.”
Well, to start, this email reeks of desperation as well as horrible grammar. Regarding the first line it should read,”…INTO the org ‘so’ they can see… Or, put a period after ‘org.’ And start a new sentence.
But what really stood out was,”…they can see the applicable enlightenment films applicable & learn what their next service is.” I guess they use “applicable” twice to emphasize how important all this is. I will say, though, that calling them “enlightenment films” is something new to me. I would think, “On The Road to Perdition” would describe these films more accurately. But, hey, that’s just me.
They did get me with “INTO the org.” When they capitalized all the letters, I figured it MUST be important. So, I’m going to Pasadena today and see if their super powers can pull me INTO the org.
If I don’t post again, come and get me out. You’ll know me by glazed eyes watching films on enlightenment…
OSD, the emphasis on applicable films applicable is because now that GAT II is out, they want to make sure that those still IN know that NOW that will be getting all the applicable appliques possible as opposed to all the applicable tech volumes I read in the 80’s and applied applicably to my pc’s incorrectly. So now everything with GAT II is applicable and will be applicably applied.
I think these guys would get more new people in if they just put on robes, shaved their heads and went to the airport and handed out WTH.
Wow! You are so applicable, McC! I could learn from you! In fact, I already have!
I bought an app that told me how to use my apple picker but it’s not that applicable, making me think my app promoted itself as way too pickable and now perceive that I was a bit too trickable thus feeling applicably despicable.
Master, when I can snatch rhyme from hand, will I be able to leave Temple?
She forgot to say that the applicable films would be at the correct orders of magnitude that’s applicable.
Yea Old Surfer Dude! Take one for the team! Go in to Pas Org and see if they give you the dog and pony show. Or if they remember you from years ago. I think no one will know you cuz everyone is either young kids or new SO from Clearwater.
Cindy, they won’t know me because all the staff from when you and I were there have already been replaced. Every time I go by there, the faces are different.
” So, I’m going to Pasadena today and see if their super powers can pull me INTO the org.”
No. no. no. You DRIVE them in. Pulling is for pussies!
Rollin -rollin – rollin ………..Rawhide. Keep those doggies movin…………..
Once again, I stand corrected…Truly you are one of the wise men.
Sea Org members are out numbering active public. And with the incredible stress applied for stats each week, these SO orger nuts ..are going to crack. It ain’t going to be pretty, fun to watch, but not pretty.
That’s what I was thinking, Gary. What…5 more years and SO & staff out number public? Sooner?
But, can you imagine someone coming into an org with SO running it? Holy 3 swings of the needle, that sure ain’t going to work out.
OSD, First off, I was thinking ever since I saw the original body router post if with all those body routers if real live not UTR public didn’t already outnumber staff and SO.
Just sayin . . . I’d run the opposite direction if I saw a herd of people in a strange uniform coming towards me . . . and if they can spare that many staff to scare people away from their building, then there must be nothing for them to do on the inside.
And secondly, “holy 3 swings of the needle” classic. If I cross stitched, I’d make that into a pillow. Maybe it will be my new surfing call kinda works better than cowabunga these days when you’re so old it takes a few more seconds to get up on the board. Now I’ve just gotta find an ocean in this landlocked State.
🙂 wonderful! +100 batman
I feel ya, Valerie! The uniforms are so creepy, I’m sure the vast majority of the public would attempt to walk around them. What the SO say at muster regarding body routing:
SO1: Man, I really struck out today! I mean, once people saw me, they tried to walk around me! Gosh, I feel like such a down stat!
SO2: Well, one guy made eye contact with me and even stopped to chat, He said he wasn’t interested as he as heard very bad things about us, but, at least he stopped.
All SO: (Extremely loud clapping extending for 5 minutes). The body routers all shouting: “SO2, you are sooooooo upstat! You really know how to do this stuff, don’t you! Hip, hip, Hooray, Hip,hip, Hooray! You get 10 minutes off for Christmas!
I’m a bit oft topic but to avoid cracking these SO members only need to head to the energy boom states that can easily absorb all of them. There is an energy boom going on that extends from North Dakota to Texas and includes Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Oklahoma, New Mexico and other states.
I get emails nearly everyday from companies begging drivers to come and work for them. If you can’t find a job in these states then you don’t want one.
Staff and SO members sneak away to the library and google ” oil field jobs” and prepared to be shocked. Here in parts of Colorado the state is having trouble finding school bus drivers because many have gone to work driving for oil companies. I worked in up in North Dakota and here in Colorado and this boom is no joke.
The Keystone Pipeline will likely pass this year in Washington and there are going to be even more jobs out here.
Sea Org members grab your gear, get away from Dave and put some money in your pocket. Don’t bother to say goodbye just leave the mess for Dave.
KFrancis, you speak the truth. 19 year olds are making 1/4 million a year as Swampers working 14 hour days and getting 4-5 days a month off in our oilpatch town. Sea Orgers could cut their work month in half and be rolling in the dough.
Or, if they prefer, they could work as waitstaff at double minimum wage in any oil patch State and have so much free time they would be able to build their own home from scratch or something.
That is a very good idea kfrancis. There are simple menial jobs available way out in the hinterlands of N Dakota and such paying 120k plus. It would be kind of lonely, but I bet you would eat well and be able to watch TV all night if you so desired.
I say this because the SOgers are going to have a small “gap” in their work history, and bad credit as sweet Davey as used and abused their name and social security numbers. No telling how many of these folks are receiving some kind of benefits and don’t even know it.
Are they regging for their Idle Morgue yet?
“they can see the applicable enlightenment films applicable ”
But do they apply the application applicable?
If it’s applicable it will be applied otherwise they’ll be in an awful pickle.
An applicable pickle? You know those are the best kinds!
The beatings will continue until moral improves.
Getting every $ciengologist involved in fund raising (the OT committees with every OT) and the ‘divide the room into two parts for the how much can you pledge’ game have now shown how management does that part of the game. Bring your family and friends (yeah, I bet that works) to the ‘sell Lron to the masses’ store.
I do think that the continued beatings will be that straw that broke the clams back. Such behavior is guaranteed to bring about that WTF moment.
Mistyped, should be ‘morale’.
SO: What you need to do is:
a) Come into the org this week and get through your OWN personal GAT II services. We are here to service you morning until night time including the weekends until 10pm. You can put in EXTRA time over the holidays so as to move through your own personal Bridge actions even faster. What better way to spend your holidays than with LRH!
Thanks Rona for doing our thinking for us and telling us what we NEED TO DO. Rest assured, we’ll get right on it!
Well, gosh, the way she puts it compels me to go into that Idle Morgue, Coop. I mean, what better way to spend the holidays? Cooped up in the Pasadena’s Road to Perdition!
The last time Pasadena Org was worth a damn is probably 1979-80, before their building on Colorado Blvd was burned by an arsonist. I did a Mission there in 1982 and discovered that the books they had on window display had burnt edges from the fire. It’s been downhill ever since.
mreppen, I grew up in Pasadena. I was about to leave for Hawai’i to take a break from college and was having breakfast with my friend who was going with me. He look across the street and saw the mission. He asked, “What’s Scientology all about?” I replied, “Well, It’s something that cost $100,000.” We went in. I used his name and he said his was Karl Marx. I did purchase Dianetics. Of course they tried to get us to take the Comm Course, but we declined as we were headed to the islands. So they told us there was a mission and org over there. The year was 1974 (I think). When I got back to Pasadena several years later, the mission was closed due to the fire. All boarded up.
Imagine some college student asking another that same question today! No wonder David Miscavige hates the internet!
The arson was at the end of December, 1980: http://www.lisamcpherson.org/cos/pasadena_fire.htm
Critic Jeff Jacobsen keeps a list of Scientology-related fires: http://www.lisamcpherson.org/cos/fires.htm
I got into Scn in Pasadena in 1978, and moved (back) to OC in 1979.
“P.S. Please feel free to pass this good news and direction along so we have an avalanche of production here in Pasadena!!!” First of all, what is the good news? The lies? Even they aren’t good news.
Second, I love the assumed close of “…you can put in EXTRA time over the holidays….” like people getting this will go “Oh Yeah! That’s what I can do over my Christmas time off! Gee Wiz! I thought I would just be having fun with friends and family and maybe even taking advantage of NOT being on course and have a drink. A REAL drink.”
It’s lines like this Plus the word “need” as in “SO, what you ‘need’ to do is:” that make me cringe until I remember that I’M OUT! 🙂
Ah c’mon, McCarran! Don’t be such a spoil sport! I can’t think of a better place to spend the Holidays than at a huge Idle Morgue! Of course there’s a very good chance I’d be kicked with in 2 minutes.
Really? That long?
LOL! I’ll miss not being on course this holiday season! Gheesch, get a frickin life Rona.
And here is some interesting news related to the most on source $cientologists in the world around the LA area:
Yo Julian,
You might want to pay attention here and see if you and Darth can turn things around, especially since Darth is having the most important event in the history of $cientology this weekend I think. If I recall it is planned for the Shrine on Saturday evening and it is called the New Years event.
I was having dinner with my one time sister and brother in law this past weekend. My ex-wifes sister who is a never in (although she has been the target of several abusive reg cycles over the years) said that her kool aide sister Lori and her husband Rod Daniells (ex Cee Ogres) along with her son Adam and his wife Mira (also ex Cee Ogres) were going to be in Sonora next weekend and wanted to visit with family. Isn’t that nice.
But what I don’t get is how or why they would want to travel to Sonora (a five hour drive) to visit with all of their non $cientology family when the biggest event in the history of the cult is happening on the same weekend? Besides that, I (a flaming SP of the worst sort) am in communication with many of these folks regularly and I do keep them up to speed on the sociopathic activities of your cult members. I also happen to live across the street from Rod and Lori’s house and there are many SP kooties which cruise the area plus I have safe pointed all the neighbors as to what the scene is.
So …………… back to Julian,
Tell me why Rod and Lori, Adam and Mira and Ken and his new RC$ girlfriend are not using this valuable holiday time to get through their courses and be sure to attend the greatest event of all time rather than hanging out here in a town with me? Furthermore and notwithstanding the larger question as to whether they have gotten through their basics, purchased their whorehouse 8 meters and are otherwise progressing on their GAG II course lineup is a question worth asking! Now if you don’t follow up on this and Dear Leader has issues with attendance I can only imagine how much ugly is going to be visiting you. So I certainly hope you and the OSA goons can get and keep your kool aide public in tow …………….I’ve certainly done my part.
One more thing Julian, If you cannot convince Lori to get her flocks ethics in and get onto course and show up for Daves drivel, then I will of course use every opportunity to stir the pot. And …… you know if there is something I can do well it is stir the shit out of that pot of theety weety cult members.
Lastly Julian, this is a heads I win, tails you lose scenario. If the culties stay for course and the event then I don’t have to deal with folks that are a hairdo in search of a braincell. If they show up then I get to demonstrate the power of suppression to them. Looking forward to seeing how you work this out. Say hi to Dave for me and why don’t you take Christmas Day off this year for the hell of it. Can you imagine a day without muster???????????????
🙂
🙂 and again

…and furthermore these SP kooties -with soil as well maintained as yours- have a tendency to cross the road, looking for their 47X expansion….

Coop, I really hate it when you sugarcoat things. Please please quit beating around the bush. ROTFL.
I know Valerie, it’s one in a long list of problems I have! Julian has the rest on a tablet somewhere but no one seems able to find it!
You are the bitchinest Dude in the universe! I love the way you get in their faces. You da man!
“Launching from those actions which cover proper implementation of standard LRH administrative policy letters, the same exact actions have been launching in all LA Area Ideal Orgs.”
Say what?
“. . . but I am already Clear, or I am already OT – and that IS a fantastic accomplishment!” . . . ” so in addition to taking part in your next Bridge steps (which may include Purif or SRD)”
So let me get this straight, I’m required not only to go out and drag all those other people back in who refuse to re re re re re re re do but now you just said in one sentence yeah yeah, we know you’re Clear and OT, but get in here and re re re do your Purif and SRD again and again as “your next Bridge steps.
There is so much wrong with that email that is just. plain. desperate. that people can’t possibly read through the whole thing. I wonder if a bubble dweller ever reads one of these emails all the way through any more.
If I were a bubble dweller, I would either delete without reading or scan for dates and times then delete. There’s only so much puffery you can feed someone before it just means absolutely nothing.
That email is just SSDD.
They are missing a big point. the streamlined GAT II Bridge on Source and re-discovered by the magnanimous leader only comprises Purif and Survival Rd.
She mentions only these two services at least three times; yes, I know, she mentioned HGC hours which very likely are public receiving objectives or sec checks. The Academy delivers Student Hat re do.
Tick-tock black heart…tick-tock.
How about a t-shirt that reads: GAT Tech?
Outstanding! Simply OUTSTANDING! Now that’s some REALLY funny shit!
Well done, Michael. Now go attest…
How about “We GAT the Tech”? That would draw the punters in in droves. 🙂
RolandRB, that is nice. However, how about, “We GAT Da Tech.” I always liked a little hip hop in my posts.
Ugh.
I’ve been hearing the same crap for the past thirty years…
“…proper implementation of standard LRH administrative policy…through standard actions, BOOM this org and Clear our zone…most exciting times EVER in Scientology history…streamlined on-source Bridge…more public signing up than EVER before in our history…at an all time high!!…here to service you morning until night time…put in EXTRA time over the holidays…even faster…Bring all of your friends and family INTO the org…signed up and moved onto their correct next service”
Honestly, I’m beginning to think that org staff fall into amnesia every three months, and totally forget how to do their post. Based on these e-mails, it appears this is what’s happening. It just never ends.
This one tops them all:
“What better way to spend your holidays than with LRH!”
I was thinking about spending my holidays with family. But, if you’re in the church, your family is probably a train wreck. Not sounding very family-friendly guys.
Rona’s letter, and all like them, just sound like the grownups in the Peanuts cartoons: Wa wa wa, wa wa wa wa, wa wa, waaa. Seriously, that’s what I hear in my head as I scan that shit. Speaking of which, I just noticed a hidden message in my “wa”-ing. Must have come from my subconscious lol.
I was in tech call-in for a while when I was I was in the SO. I understand the futility of trying to get a bunch of guys back into the org who only want you to leave them alone.
The big joke here is that Ideal Orgs are supposed to be all about Div 6, and Div 6 is supposed to DRIVE MORE PUBLIC IN ON THE ORG THAN IT CAN WASTE.
Scientology is supposed to be in the “Div 6 Phase”
So the fact that Pasadena Org’s attention is being riveted (by SO members no less) on the BLOWN DIV 4 PUBLIC, tells you all you need to know…that THE DIV 6 IDEAL ORG STRATEGY IS A COMPLETE FAILURE.
What’s an easier and BIGGER pool of people to get on services? A) Fresh meat who are reaching for services because of SCN’s wonderful mystery-sandwich marketing campaigns or B) Disaffected ARC broken public? The answer is “A”.
The org would only be bothering with trying to handle “B” if “A” was completely non-existent. Yet, “A” is exactly what Ideal Orgs are supposed to be about. Isn’t the world supposed to be banging down the doors of orgs demanding solutions to society’s problems? Aren’t Ideal Orgs supposed to be the solution that allows Scientologists to offer the FULL RANGE of LRH solutions to society who is demanding it?
Oh god, it’s the biggest joke of all.
Any Scientologist with two brain-cells can figure this shit out. Which tells you that the people who are left are holding on to that kool aid for dear life.
Thank god we are getting the F out of Clearwater. Maybe I’ll finally be able to get rid of the “Scientology stank” that permeates this area. North Carolina here we come!
They gave up on getting raw meat into the Orgs about twenty years ago. Raw meat cannot be trusted. They might read the Internet. They might spread enturbulation having read the Internet. They might yawn at the Big Wins being effused and squealed about by the been-there-six-times OTs on TRs and Objectives (or whatever it has been renamed to). That would ruin things for the people actually handing over the moolah. No — raw meat is a potential source of trouble. Besides, none of them can understand what the hell they are talking about. They use an unfamiliar language unheard of in their circles. And when it comes to money, raw meat scratches its head when you tell them about the non-returnable fixed donations for services. They think in wog mode and expect value for money. Yes, of course you get that from Scientology, exchange in abundance no less, but raw meat can’t quite grasp this concept of voluntary giving fixed donations in return to be permitted to do services, and then to give money, give money, give more money as and when it is asked of them to prove they deserve those services. Silly raw meat hasn’t had the training to realise that this is a good thing.
So no — the last thing they want in an Org to create the mega, mega, mega, mega, mega, mega, mega expansion such that they reach out into the community is raw meat and raw meat think. They already have all the public they need and that is Scn public who will hand over their moolah to redo their Bridge time and time again without question and applauding that image of L. Ron Hubbard on cue. THAT is True Expansion!
” Any Scientologist with two brain-cells can figure this shit out.”
Yep. Pretty much gives you the total number of functioning brain cells per cultite.
Well…I think it’s a little generous saying they have all of 2 brain cells, Coop. Man, you must be a in a very, very good mood today!
Nope, they don’t have two because they obviously have NOT FIGURED IT OUT. They have one or less than one. Yes, I am in a good mood. You bloggers make me laugh and I like laughing. It causes brain cells to multiply too!
NC is so beautiful. Email me and we’ll have coffee or a Happy Hour before you go! 🙂
Cindy – clearly stated post. I hear ya about the CW ‘stank’. You’re moving to a new civilization and away from a Steven King scenario. Merry Christmas to you and yours and I wish you much happiness.
Good going Misty. You are so much right on track getting out of CW. And I certainly hear you on the Div 2 and Div 6 thing. Many years ago when I first saw this cannibalizing of existing members for money I couldn’t understand how in the world that would or could work. Fact is, it doesn’t work. Your analysis is spot on.
I liked this from Rona: “…they can see the applicable enlightenment films applicable…”
Yes I loved the less than ideal “standard Enlightenment actions” and “What better way to spend your holidays than with LRH!” Now could that be up in the Van Allen belt where LRH liked to go exterior and feel the heat of the radiation?
On second thoughts no thanks I’d rather enjoy a good holiday time with my friends.
I’m currently in the Van Allen Belt, tony-b. Please wave to I can get a lock on you! “Whoa! Slow down, Big Guy! Oh! It’s you Mr. Hubbard! My bad! What bring you here? Oh, really? You want to tell David Miscavige what a failure he is? What’s that? Will I do for you? Be glad to! Heading back to Target 2 now? Have a nice trip!”
Yes, I was wondering if she was trying to postulate something applicable or what. She needs to go on the list of people who are behind on their spell check tech.
Dave’s PAC Team on Crack, cracking the whip.
While we crack up reading all of their super secret missives to each other!
Everything the cult does is backwards. They usually whip the crack!
Why can’t they be the first Saint Hill size Org and beat LAD? Because that is the midget’s baby? Of course none of them will reach St Hill size unless they fake the stats and then it will only last for a month or two.
I am so glad to be out of that insane asylum. I can just feel the pain now of being forced to go out and body route to get new people in and it not working. But then you would be made wrong , like ANYBODY if done “standardly” can route people into the Org of course. It is a big façade and mind f–k.
I’m FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have no idea how a created the c in façade with that little squiggly thing on it. Well…now I do. If I type façade it just automatically shows up. Interesting.
That’s actually the proper French spelling for the word. The squiggly thing is called a “cedilla” and changes the sound of the ‘c’ from a hard ‘c’ like ‘k’ to a soft ‘c’ like ‘s’. Funny that it showed up in your keyboard mappings….
Thanks for being some one else’s solution. 🙂
Tony, what makes it so un-doable is that the people body routing are SEA ORG! They view wogs as undesirables. As they stand there being Homo Novi, they’ll be looking down their collective noses at the residents of Pasadena that pass by. You know, as I think about this situation, it may be a lot of fun taking my beach chair and sitting right across from that Idle Morgue to see what happens. I should take my camera along and make good use of it too! I mean, it’s going to be 74 degrees in Pasadena all this week!
Coop, I wish you could come down and enjoy the festivities with me. It’s always more fun with someone to share it with!
I’d love to see those pictures. More snobby SO members, gotta love it.
I’m tempted OSD. Nothing like a good ringside seat. Are you going to the Beverly Hills Playhouse on the 24th. Should be lots of trolls out that evening!
Thanks for reminding me! Do tickets have to be purchased in advance or can I get them at the door?
I think the trouble with zombies is they tend not to realise they’re dead. They just keep shambling about, groping hungrily.
There appears to be a new (old?) twist to LRH quote tech: quote an excerpt of an obscure reference like you mean it and add “just as LRH wanted” and voilá, you have compliance with whatever off-purpose and crazy activity you are pushing.
Incidentally, is there a graph anywhere showing the number of times orgs have gone Saint Hill size over the decades? Something like a SH size boom/bust cycle?
How many of the service starts are not re-dos?
I have said a few times that “just like LRH intended” seems to be a hypnotic command phrase that Miscavige uses to pull one over on the remaining sheep. Just by saying so they remain quiet, no matter what it is applied to.
The next time some SO member chants, “…just like LRH intended…” I wish the person they’re talking to would step up and say, “show me the LRH reference where he says he intends this.” In the old days, “show me the reference” was a good thing and was considered good KSW. But now, if you utter those words, it is instant declare time.
LRH says in a PDC lecture there’s no such thing as failure, but in David Miscavige’s case, I’m betting he’d make an exception.
They aren’t zoobies — they are stupid …

(love the closing bit about “the entirety of Fox News)
Brilliant 🙂
There’s also the good ‘ol, “It’s Command Intention…” and voilá.
