Perhaps you're creating a rift in our reality, tommy. If so, please stop. If not, you might want to stop anyway.

Heh. Land Without Shrimp, here I come!

Or maybe all our shrimp would get sucked through the rift....

The kids who self-identified as being in a gang at my highschool used to sometimes have those . That and the teardrop thing. But I have no clue as to the significance.

HEY!

I'm making a seafood salad for dinner tonight. There will be no removing of shrimp from this plane of existance thankyouverymuch.

Did you hear about the Scientology lectures Tom Cruise is giving?

This is not from the Onion.

Continuing his vigorous advocacy for Scientology's solutions to mental health problems, Tom Cruise will deliver a series of four lectures on topics related to "The Modern Science of Mental Health" beginning next month. Co-sponsored by the Citizens Commission on Human Rights, the lectures will be held at Scientology's Celebrity Centre International in Los Angeles. All lectures will be free to the public. Due to limited seating at the Celebrity Centre, tickets will be available only to Scientology parishioners and selected members of the press, but the lectures will be simulcast on the web, and a live video feed will be available for broadcasters who wish to cover these highly informative presentations.

The first lecture, set for October 15, is titled "How Psychiatry Invented Schizophrenia, and What Scientologists Can Do About It".

The second lecture, tentatively scheduled for October 22, is on "Handling Sexual Dis-Orientation: Out of the Closet and Into the Auditing Room".

The topic of the third lecture, in early November, will be "Diagnosis and Treatment of So-Called Clinical Depression with the Hubbard Mark Super VII Quantum Electropsychometer".

The fourth lecture is "Neuroanatomical Changes Resulting from Chronic Methamphetamine Abuse: Can Narconon's Sauna and Niacin Treatment Program Help?"

Transcripts of each lecture will be made available after the broadcast.

Yup. The meaning differs between ethnic groups, but very popular with gangs.

As long as that rift ends at my house, knock yourself out.

I just signed up from my 401K plan. WOOHOO!

I have GOT to read the transcript after the sexual "dis-orientation" lecture is given.

Um... Ok, that actually makes me feel kinda' sorry for him....
