Shake and Bake Flash is at it again. I wonder if he knows the information he is circulating is bs, or if he thinks it is the "greatest good" to keep getting money out of people to "save the planet" even though there is not a shred of evidence any such thing is happening. Check out his pitch and then a few comments afterwards to put things into perspective. Here are the ACTUAL statistics for scientology.org from Alexa. Global Rank 155,518 64,668 Rank in United States 66,492 For anyone not familiar with Alexa, this means that for all internet sites, there are 155,51 … [Read more...]
Some New Pleas From The Bubble
This stuff rolls in the door daily from Special Correspondents and there is just too much of it to publish. Much of it is same old, same old. These three came in just now and each has something a little special about it, particularly the last one. So I figured I would spread the word from Loony Tunes land. The Biggest Global Impact Ever Event Date: Sat, 17 May 2014From: Joel Morris <joelm@citycent.com>To: otcmail@pasaotc.orgSubject: [OTC-Mail] FW: from Sara- Save the DateDear OTCers,Join us on Friday, May 30th for "The Biggest Global Impact Ever Event"!Now that we have … [Read more...]
The Pitch Goes On
Here is something truly gag-worthy. As with virtually everything else that emanates from the Vulture Culture of Scientology, it is a pitch for money. And as with everything else, it contains many flat out lies as well as complete unreality on the state of scientology and the world in which it exists. These people don't just have tin ears, they also have hallucinogenic vision and speak in tongues. Kind of messed up for those who supposedly can hone all 57 perceptics to razor sharpness. This promo piece would be like the Catholic Church asking for donations for their international … [Read more...]
Criminon – “We Get No Funding From The Church”
Well, isn't that strange? How many events (and Impact mags) have you seen that have crowed about the "success" of Criminon and how it is all attributable to "your support of the IAS." Who has not been "pitched" by an IAS Vulture to "support our 4th dynamic activities, we are salvaging criminals from a life of crime." They have even presented IAS "Freedom Medals" to Criminon people like Greg Capazorio and promoted the fact that THIS is what the IAS does. Ladies and gentlemen -- the unvarnished truth. The Church and the IAS GIVE NOTHING to support the efforts of these people. They … [Read more...]
Flag OTC Leak Watch
They are sparing no expense trying everything to find the leaks from the OTC, especially Flag. After the failure of the multiple separate versions comes this next attempt failure. An important programming note: because what is contained in these OTC Minutes is pretty much copy-text week to week (except more and more details are being eradicated) I am not going to publish any for a while. I might do some in a month or two all at once for comparison purposes. This is so I don't waste a lot of time on these essentially useless reports, but more importantly so the eager beavers in OSA won … [Read more...]
Ideal Vulturing
A Special Correspondent sent this in as a comment on the latest blog post, but I thought it deserved a bit more attention. I received this from Jeremy Arezzini, Portland Ideal org fundraiser and long time Registrar at Portland CC then Portland Org, also the guy who donated 1 million to Valley (?) ideal org, in their promo of a few months ago. I don’t know how a staff member came up with a million bucks to donate, besides his commissions from ideal org fundraising (?) Subject: Important Personal Comm From Jeremy Arezzini!

Vulture Culture Trickle Down
The Vulture Culture is spreading its wings and trickling down to the lowest levels of the hierarchy. "Give us your money and we will bestow a corny status on you" is the flavor of the month. Even getting a grant is ground for begging for money.... Boris Levitsky? Returned from the grave? Dear Scientologist: CCHR OC recently received a grant from Google in the amount of $10,000 per month worth of Pay Per Click Advertising to be used in our Orange County anti-psych campaigns. This Grant will go a long way in helping Orange County residents … [Read more...]
Come Sing At Graduation
This is a desperate email sent out at 5:15pm on Friday evening. As the Special Correspondent who sent this to me noted, recently AOSHUK was crowing over the fact their "courserooms are full" of people on the Student Hat and "GAG II line-up". If so, where did they all go? I wonder if this song is going to be in the fine tradition of other infamous songs -- from AOSHEU to Birmingham to Valley. Shudder at the thought. Probably the only truth in here is "being able to sing is not a requirement." What out ethics Craig Mathieson has been up to? Everyone from UK will all have the same … [Read more...]
IAS Travel Agency
Here is one of the more bizarre pieces to be circulated recently. The Flag IAS office is now offering travel awards. Has that feel of a "Free weekend in Vegas, all you have to do is attend our crush reg Time Share seminar." Maybe they got this out of one of the "How To Be A Successful Fundraiser" books? They should really be heading to Transylvania to tour the home of Count Dracula -- its only a few hundred miles away. And as a bonus they could study up on the regime and methods one of Dear Leader's (Kim Jong Il) best friends and allies Nicolae Ceaușescu (it's tough to get into North Kor … [Read more...]
Solve It With Scientology
A lesson from the rewritten history of the Church of Scientology. Truly a blast from the past and a sort of time capsule into how things were 25 years ago before the Vulture Culture became the order of the day. People talk about the "good old days." Others sometimes comment that there were no "good old days" because everything was always bad because everything sprang from the evil mind of L. Ron Hubbard. Well, this makes for interesting reading, as it is evidence that at least one thing about the church really HAS changed dramatically, and it is not because of what LRH wrote. Back in the 7 … [Read more...]
