    Hmmm…
    It’s the only religion I know that conceals its “life changing doctrines” from the general non-paying public. Very interesting. The Celebrity Centre right down the street is really spooky… all that’s missing is Orson Welles and a snowglobe.
    And as Bono once said… my God isn’t short of cash, mister.

    “…all that’s missing is Orson Welles and a snowglobe.”
    Don’t you mean Olivia Newton John and a pair of roller skates?

    I’ll laugh at anything that makes fun of Scientology.

    You think Forest Whitaker has nightmares about signing up for that movie?

    Shooting fish in a barrel, and about as funny as Mutiny City News.
    As in “not very”.

    Mutiny City News. An easier target than Scientology? Say it ain’t so.

    Well that’s the last time I try to pick a fight with cultists on this board.
    Hmph I say. Hmph!

    Premadator, Bono was referring to Christian evangelicals on American TV when he said “The god I believe in isn’t short of cash, mister”, not Scientologist.
    You can point the 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T at Scientology, and be right on target, but not that one. Bible-thumping Christians have fleeced more idiots out of their money in this country than any other organization could dare to dream of.

    We’re thinking about a scientology Tshirt and wonder ing if anyone has acerbic or absurd suggestions for the T-shirt insurgency.

“One of the things I wish I could do in my life would be to watch this film through somebody else’s eyes. I just can’t. I still see it as just a giant mess, and other people are seeing that it has a shape. That’s really exciting, because I still have a hard time seeing it clearly.”
~ Sarah Polley’s Greatest Wish About Stories We Tell

“Anyway, Hitchcock eventually saw a rough cut of High Anxiety. He enjoyed it. But he said nothing after it. He just left. I [thought he] wasn’t happy. The next day, about 11 o’clock in the morning, I get this enormous, beautiful case of Chateau Haut-Brion 1961. That was almost 20 years old [at the time]. I mean, it was priceless. And there were magnums six of them, in a wooden case. Haut-Brion. I mean, oh my God. I’ve still got three of them left waiting. I keep all the good wines.”
What kind of occasion is worthy? When will you know it’s time to go into number four?
“A real, real occasion. I won’t drink it just because it’s a family occasion. I’ll drink it with guys that know what a good wine is and care about, you know, exquisite wines. I have a couple of friends that know what a good wine is.”
~ Mel Brooks, Foodie
