Anybody who's ever been in my office will tell you it's piled high with books, legal papers, manuscripts and all sorts of other paper products. I virtually live in here researching and writing for the last five years. So not surprisingly I developed this monster cough that just won't go away. I'm on my second variety of antibiotics when my daughter told me I needed to clean out the vents and get some good ole' fresh air. And that's exactly what I did.
Yesterday was bright and sunny and I drove over to Washington, DC and met up with my good friend and former Scientologist Arnie Lerma and protested the founding Church of Scientology. They just paid a former client $8.6 million for abuses he says he sustained.
We had a blast. Some college kids came by and one asked me what was it all about anyway, and I was doing a good job taking about the evil ruler Xenu who, 75 million years ago, called in all his disloyal subjects and had them shot up with glycol solutions which froze them and then had them flown to the distant planet Tegachi (or how ever they spell it) which of course today is known as Earth. That they were stationed around various vocanoes and nuclear bombs were exploded sending their spirits all around to attach to us today. Of course for a hefty fee a Scientologist can remove these nasty things from you and once rid of them you get back your super powers. Well I was explaining all this when Scientologist Silvia Stanard came by and tried to drag him away to tell him the real story. "Well," says I, "he didn't ask you, he asked me." And she walked away.
All that sunshine really helped my cough.

Scientology has got to be the biggest load I have ever encountered. Its down right hilarious and yet still terrifying what some people will believe.
I applied for a job with this Veterinarian once who turned out to be pretty devout. I walked into his office and it looked like someone had strapped a stick of dynamite to L.Ron Hubbard and exploded him all over it. Part of his interview was this personality test that supposedly "mapped" out my charcteristics. It was total crap. He also asked me a lot about whether or not I would eventually be interested in Scientology.
Needless to say, I never looked back after walking out his front door.
Some times I wonder about all those big stars that get invloved. I mean, maybe they are just bored? Need a new place to blow money? Is it amusing for them? Thay cant possibly be that stupid! Or can they?

That is hilarious, Wes.

I was going to type that they are that stupid and then I sent a blank post. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! :grin:

I may be speculating (or at least talking out the wrong hole)...However, I always thought that L. Ron Hubbard started that religion as an actual joke...Which he then used for tax-exemption purposes...
-
I've thought the same thing. But it became very unfunny after awhile.

That would explain the motives for many of the prominent business people and hollywood entertainers that claim scientology as their religion...A convenient way to to create a tax shelter for their incomes...
