Palin Relaxing With Her Snuggie</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sarah Palin has written a book called <em>Going Rogue</em>.<br />
It hits book stores today.<br />
It&#8217;s being called a <em>memoir</em> of her life.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sorry, a memoir? It&#8217;s not like she has this great history behind her life as a hockey Mom and <strong>ex</strong> Governor of Alaska. And certainly her political career has been beyond laughable.</p>
<p>So the question now is&#8230;<br />
will Palin&#8217;s book end up on the bestseller list? Or go over like a fart in church?</p>
<p>Besides the obvious that will plague this book, (Palin&#8217;s lack of popularity) <a href="http://www.thefirstpost.co.uk/54301,people,news,sarah-palins-ghostwriter-raises-questions" target="_blank">I read</a> that her book was ghostwritten by Lynn Vincent. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot!<br />
Why you ask? Whos&#8217; Lynn Vincent?</p>
<p>Lovely Lynn is not only the ghostwriter of Sarah&#8217;s book, she is pretty cozy with well known, white supremacist, Robert Stacy McCain (no relation to McCain the maverick) and she co-wrote a book with him. </p>
<p>Some snippettes <a href="http://www.thefirstpost.co.uk/54301,people,news,sarah-palins-ghostwriter-raises-questions" target="_blank">The First Post</a> about Lynn and Robert Stacy McCain,</p>
<blockquote><p>She (Lynn) is also staunchly anti-gay, backing the controversial vote to re-criminalise gay marriage in California, and &#8211; this is where Palin and her publishers might have drawn the line, but didn&#8217;t &#8211; she is closely associated with a well-known white supremacist.</p>
<p>He is Robert Stacey NcCain, a former editor at the <em>Washington Times</em>, a paper he left two years ago after a steaming row with a colleague.</p>
<p>Another Vincent collaboration was with a retired general, William Boykin,<strong> </strong>former head of the US Army&#8217;s Special Forces Command. He described his career mission as to <strong>defeat Satan in order to save America as a Christian country</strong>. &#8220;We are hated because we are a nation of believers,&#8221; he said.</p></blockquote>
<p> </p>
<p>&#8220;Defeat Satan to save America as a Christian country&#8221;?<br />
Yikes! What year is this again?</p>
<p>As mentioned previously, Lynn is also a credited author on Robert Stacy McCain&#8217;s book, “Donkey Cons: Sex, Crime, and Corruption in the Democratic Party&#8221;. Again, just lovely.</p>
<p>According to a comment left on <a href="http://littlegreenfootballs.com/article/34788_Sarah_Palins_Book_Ghostwritten_by_Associate_of_White_Supremacist_McCain" target="_blank">Little Green Footballs</a></p>
<blockquote><p>After resigning as governor in late July, Palin spent most of August in San Diego working with Vincent on the book, “Going Rogue: An American Life.” Rumors swirled about Palin sightings at Vincent’s condo complex in north San Diego County. Palin reportedly was joined here by her family and top aide, Meghan Stapleton. This month, Palin huddled with her editors in New York.</p></blockquote>
<p>So out of all the ghostwriters that Palin had to choose from, she picked Lynne Vincent? As always, Palin shows her brilliance. And to think that she ran for VP. *shudders*</p>
<p>What did <a href="http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/0,8599,1937783,00.html" target="_blank">Mark Halperin of Time</a> have to say about <em>Going Rogue</em>?</p>
<blockquote><p>Based on discussions with various sources who have seen or been briefed on the book&#8217;s contents, here&#8217;s what you can expect from “Going Rogue”:</p>
<p>* just five chapters—but they are very, very long.</p>
<p>* some score settling with McCain aides she believes ill-served her (names will be named).</p>
<p>* a hearty bashing of the national media.</p>
<p>* an account of how her upbringing shaped her maverick sensibilities.</p>
<p>* a testimonial to the importance of faith in her life.</p>
<p>* a warm and personal tone, written in Palin&#8217;s own voice, despite the involvement of a collaborator.</p>
<p>Two things not in the book:</p>
<p>* Don&#8217;t look for hefty policy prescriptions.</p>
<p>* Once source who has seen  “Going Rogue” says it does not include an index.  That would give Palin a subtle revenge on the party&#8217;s Washington establishment, whose members tend to flip to the back pages and scan for their own names. If they want to know what Sarah Palin has to say about them, they will have to buy the book—and read the whole thing.</p></blockquote>
<p>Let&#8217;s recap, shall we?<br />
She picked a ghostwriter who is anti gay, who is a creationist, and who has has teamed up with white supremacist Robert Stacy McCain.<br />
There&#8217;s nothing in the book on policy. (well no surprise, she can&#8217;t write what she doesn&#8217;t know)<br />
There are FIVE chapters in her book with NO index.<br />
She bashes the media big time, even though they are the ones who put her on the map.<br />
She throws people she once worked with under the bus, and adds a touch of holy rolling goodness.</p>
<p>WOW! COUNT ME OUT.</p>
<p>Now according to <a href="http://www.comcast.net/articles/news-general/20091027/US.Palin.Book.Retainer/" target="_blank">Comcast News</a>,</p>
<blockquote><p>Palin doesn&#8217;t elaborate on her book compensation, describing the $1.25 million figure only as a &#8220;retainer&#8221; that appears to be a reference to her lucrative advance.</p></blockquote>
<p>So $1.25 big ones for a ghostwritten &#8221;memior&#8221;?<br />
Again&#8230; wow!</p>
<p>I think once the right wingers are done buying Palin&#8217;s crappy book, (Elisabeth Hasselback probably camped out at Barnes and Nobles last night) this book may be headed right for the bargain bin.</p>
<p>Although it would make quite the dandy door stop! Gotcha!</p>

<p>This has not been the best week for Scientology.</p>
<p>October has proven to be one of Scientology&#8217;s worst months in history. Between being found guilty of fraud in France, celebrity Paul Haggis telling them &#8220;see yah!,&#8221; the ABC Nightline series with Tommy Davis walking out on the interview, the two new books coming out by ex members &#8220;<em>Blown For Good&#8221; </em>by Marc Headley and &#8220;<em>My Billion Year Contract&#8221; </em>by Nancy Many, the many new pending lawsuits, their orgs closing left and right, and with many members leaving&#8230;.. it&#8217;s safe to say, it&#8217;s not too cool to be a Scientologist right now.</p>
<p>This past Sunday and Monday, the St. Petersburg Times reported on interviews they conducted <br />
with former members of the cult. Today was their last installment in their three part series. It was the story of a former member, Don Jason who actually had to jump off a ship to try to gain his freedom. We will get to Don a bit later.</p>
<p>The interviews included former member&#8217;s accounts of being chased, harassed and followed by private investigators. Ex members explained how they were drawn back in to the cult and convinced to stay, against their better judgment. They thought they were doing the right thing by trying to have a clean slate with the cult, but time after time when they returned, it only made matters worse for them and prolonged their exit. Some members just wanted to simply start their lives over and to be left alone, and they succeeded, but soon they found out they were infiltrated by Scientology plants pretending to be their friends.</p>
<p>The cult hired private investigators to hunt down these members that had left. Once the former members were caught up with, they were convinced to come back and &#8220;route out&#8221; of Scientology. For more on routing out, <a href="http://glosslip.com/2009/11/02/once-again-the-st-petesburg-times-rips-scientology-a-new-one-in-a-scathing-three-part-series/">click here</a>. These former members were also asked to sign a &#8221;pumped up&#8221; affidavit, so the cult would be able to cover their butts if these members were to leave and speak out against the cult.</p>
<p>Well that time has come. Former members who spoke out against Scientology to the SP Times are seeing information which was contained within those affidavits they signed once again.</p>
<p>Scientology spokes-creep Tommy Davis, (actress Anne Archer&#8217;s son) has pulled the affidavits out and showed them to the SP Times in the cult&#8217;s defense against the former member&#8217;s claims and stories. The cult also dug into these former member&#8217;s confidential files and put a crazy, allegation-laden, Scientology spin on their information to try to discredit them.</p>
<p>Scientology spokes-idiot Tommy Davis also denied the cult ever hired private investigators themselves, but that the PI&#8217;s were hired by THEIR Scientology lawyers. Way to throw your scum bag lawyers under the bus Scientology! What a bunch of cowards.</p>
<p>I would imagine the cult&#8217;s top lawyers like Kendrick Moxon, Helena Kobrin and Monique E. Yingling may be getting pretty sweaty palms right about now.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/moxon.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Miserable Kendrick Moxon</p>
<p>FYI&#8230; years ago, Moxon&#8217;s daughter <a href="http://www.holysmoke.org/sm/sm.htm" target="_blank">Stacy Meyer, died at Gold Base</a> in Gilman Hot Springs Ca. She joined the Sea Org at age 16 I believe. She died by electrocution INSIDE an underground transformer vault on the property. The details are too lengthy to get in to. The case was <a href="http://www.lermanet2.com/scientologynews/riverside-moxon-062700.htm" target="_blank">looked into</a>, but not enough in my opinion. No words can describe a person like Moxon.</p>
<p>His daughter was cremated and her ashes were released at sea. Which sounds all too familiar to cult founder and con man, L. Ron Hubbard&#8217;s death. Moxon&#8217;s daughter&#8217;s death remains a mystery, just like other Scientology related deaths that never made any sense. Some day, those who know what actually happened will come forward. Sorry to side track from the SP Times, but now that Scientology has literally thrown their lawyers under the bus, it made me wonder how Moxon will handle these claims by Davis. People would love to hear what Moxon has to say. Isn&#8217;t Scientology saying more or less that they are not liable for the PI&#8217;s activities that THEIR lawyers hired? Interesting spin.</p>
<p>The St. Pete&#8217;s Times had lengthy interviews and also video taped former members while they told their stories. Their body language told me that they were telling the truth. These videos are posted on the SP Times website for all to see.</p>
<p>The name Pat Broeker came up in one of the interviews, and although he declined to be interviewed by the SP Times, this is one man that must have Scientology shaking in it&#8217;s boots.</p>
<p>Pat Broeker was L. Ron Hubbard&#8217;s personal messenger and was said to be next in line to take over Scientology when Hubbard died. Broeker&#8217;s nickname was  &#8221;007&#8243;.</p>
<p>Broeker and his wife Annie were very close to Hubbard. Towards the end of Hubbard&#8217;s life, Hubbard was staying in a 40 ft trailer in Creston. Some excerpts from the LA Times story <a href="http://www.lermanet.com/latimes/la90-1a4.html" target="_blank"><em>The Final Days</em> </a>by Joel Sappell and Robert W. Welkos written in 1990,</p>
<p>From Chapter four:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The church said Hubbard went into seclusion to continue his Scientology research and to resurrect his science fiction-writing career. But former aides have said he dropped from sight to avoid subpoenas and government tax agents probing allegations that he was skimming church funds.</p>
<p>&#8220;They alleged that Hubbard skimmed millions of dollars from church coffers while he was in hiding&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;His thin gray hair, with streaks of the old red, hung without sheen to his shoulders. He had grown a stringy, unkempt beard and mustache. His round face was now sunken and his ruddy complexion had turned pasty. He was an old man and he was nearing death.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/lrh.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Not very glamorous for the revered founder of Scientology. But members of course refuse to believe that any of those reports are true. Hubbard eventually suffered a stroke which left him unable to get out of bed and his speech was impaired. I guess his &#8220;OT powers&#8221; could not help him.</p>
<p>L. Ron &#8220;dropped his body&#8221; (kicked the bucket in scio speak)  on Jan 24th, 1986.  The particulars surrounding Hubbard&#8217;s death were very mysterious and many thought he may have been murdered. When the Scientology attorney rushed to get Hubbard&#8217;s body cremated, the cremation center became suspicious when they found out it was L. Ron Hubbard and insisted on doing blood tests. Vistaril was found in his bloodstream.  Vistaril is a pysche drugs, and using such drugs are violently against Scientology&#8217;s beliefs. A full autopsy was not performed due to the cult&#8217;s claims of it being against their religion. A cover up perhaps?</p>
<p>Odd.. When John Travolta&#8217;s son died, he also had a quickie autopsy and the body was cremated <br />
right away. Very eerie.</p>
<p>Hubbard&#8217;s ashes were tossed into the sea from a TINY boat and there were only a few people in attendance. Sound familiar? Both David Miscavige and Broeker where in attendance. And although Scientologists do not make a big deal about death because they believe that a person comes back several times after death&#8230; I find it puzzling that the founder of Scientology died in such a mysterious manner and had such a tiny insignificant ceremony with hardly anyone in attendance. Makes no sense what so ever. Another account of Hubbard&#8217;s last days can be <a href="http://home.earthlink.net/~snefru/deathoflrh/" target="_blank">found here.</a></p>
<p>Of course Scientology told it&#8217;s members that Hubbard dropped his body and went &#8220;exterior&#8221; (went outside his body) to go study the upper levels of Scientology&#8217;s Bridge To Total Freedom, and members of course believed this fantasy hook, line and sinker. Miscavige then took over the cult. Although according to another reliable source, Miscavige had already been running everything four years prior to Hubbard&#8217;s death. </p>
<p>So Pat Broeker is definitely a man of interest, to say the least. He must know an awful LOT of juicy things that Scientology would love to keep quiet.</p>
<p>Another BIG thing that is kept quiet? Broeker&#8217;s wife Annie. She supposedly got put on RPF (punishment) years ago and was &#8220;straightened out&#8221;. People have not seen or heard from her in years. Nobody is sure where she is.</p>
<p>That also goes for cult leader David Miscavige&#8217;s wife. Shelly Miscavige. For someone who is the wife of the leader of the &#8221;fastest spreading religion&#8221; in the world. *SNICKER*, Where the hell is she? There are hardly ANY pictures of her anywhere and she never attends any of the big  Scientology &#8220;Ideal Org&#8221; openings or any of the big IAS (International Association of Scientologists) events.</p>
<p>At the very least you would think that cult members would question where she is after all these years of her being MIA. But nope, they just keep their blinders on and keep their eye on the prize. But sadly, there isn&#8217;t any prize, only empty bank accounts, ruined lives and sorrow.</p>
<p>If Broeker was to come forward with all that he knew, it would be the icing on the cake. He holds the key to many questions that need to be answered. Another big question&#8230; how did David Miscavige actually weasel his way into becoming the cult leader in the first place? Miscavige blackmailing Broeker is a huge possibility. But that was years ago and now Broeker has a lot more leverage. I hope Broeker has some decency left in his heart and comes forward and sings like a canary. It&#8217;s time.</p>
<p>Now back to the SP Times&#8230;.<br />
<!--more--></p>
<p>Former member, Don Jason, who was the former No. 2 Officer in Clearwater, and the focus of part three. He tells his story of how he was finally able to leave the cult. Although he didn&#8217;t just up and leave, he had to ESCAPE by jumping off a ship.</p>
<p>Don was locked in a cabin aboard Scientology&#8217;s asbestos laden cruise ship the Freewinds. FYI&#8230; The Scientology Freewinds is also guilty of polluting the island of Bonaire and have been caught red handed dumping pollutants as <a href="http://glosslip.com/2009/07/31/scientologys-freewinds-cruise-ship-continues-to-pollute-bonaire/" target="_blank">we reported previously.</a></p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Freewinds.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Don claims there were cameras monitoring his every move. And when he was informed that he had to go on Scientology&#8217;s RPF, (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rehabilitation_Project_Force" target="_blank">Rehabilitation Project Force</a>) he said he had had enough.</p>
<p>Don was without his passport. (<a href="http://www.cifs.org.au/possible.php" target="_blank">Scientology takes all Sea Org members passports</a> ) He luckily had his driver&#8217;s license and a few blank checks that he kept hidden from the guards on the ship on arrival.</p>
<p>Don had planned his escape over many months, and finally pulled a &#8220;MacGyver&#8221; and constructed what looked like a rolling pin, so he can make his way down the ship&#8217;s cable like a zip line off the side of the ship.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/jason.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>His getaway off the ship was successful, but it was only the start of a fierce chase by the cult. The cult was trying to retrieve Don back, so he can hopefully stay in and also to sign an affidavit, in which the cult would of course put their spin on it, keep it on file and then use it to cover their butts if he ever spoke out.</p>
<p>Luckily, Don did finally get free from the cult and is speaking out today. And of course the cult was right on cue and pulled out that embellished affidavit that Don signed after they found out he spoke to the <em>SP Times</em>. It was rife with Scientology spin and lies. The cult did the same to other former members who were interviewed by the <em>SP Times.</em></p>
<p>I don&#8217;t understand why Scientology thinks that showing these affidavits that people signed under duress have any validity what so ever. People do desperate things in desperate situations, and Scientology ends up looking less and less credible with each affidavit they pull out.</p>
<p>That is not the only sleazy tactic that they have pulled. The cult also dug into member&#8217;s private files which holds intimate details on them which were acquired through auditing sessions and &#8220;sec checks&#8221;. They dig for anything that they can use to spin, and then printed it in their Freedom Magazine. *shakes head*</p>
<p>For a &#8220;church&#8221; to boast such trumped up numbers like millions of members and thousands of orgs,  and parade their celebutards around&#8230; they certainlyact like a bunch of two year olds when they hear any criticism about them. Some of these former members were just telling their stories. They were not bringing them to court. But yet Scientology went totally ballistic on them.</p>
<p>But it didn&#8217;t stop there&#8230;.<br />
The cult has gone as far as taking out Google ads against the SP Times. They are trying to sway people into reading their Freedom Magazine &#8220;slam book&#8221; against former members and the SP Times by providing a link to their magazine in their ads. The cult&#8217;s Freedom Magazine makes the National Inquirer look like the Associated Press. I hope people do go ahead and read it, because it is SO worth the laugh.</p>
<p>To top it off, the cult took out MANY visual ads which appeared on the SP Times website. You may have seen some of their ads appear here on Glosslip from time to time. But those particular ads are randomly generated by Google and appear when there is matching subject content. Glosslip has no control over the ads. But the ads that appeared on the SP Times website were purchased by the cult I believe. Correct me if I am wrong.</p>
<p>How ironic is this?<br />
Scientology spending member&#8217;s dollars to pay for what they have called a &#8221;suppressive newspaper&#8221; to run their silly promos in defense of ex members telling their stories of abuse. Oh! It&#8217;s just too delicious for words!</p>
<p>So keep on doing what your doing Scientology&#8230;.<br />
In the words of Billy Crystal&#8230;.YOU LOOK MARVELOUS! *insert sarcasm*</p>
<p>Another really delicious aspect of this coverage, and all the other things that have gone down about Scientology lately, is that pesky little problem with their tax exemption status. You see under tax exemption status 501(c)(3), an organization CAN NOT be involved in ANY illegal activities. Oh snap!</p>
<p>Allegedly, Scientology obtained their tax exemption status by <a href="http://www.factnet.org/headlines/give-away.htm" target="_blank">intimidating IRS agents</a> with threats of leaking personal information. This information was obtained by PI&#8217;s hired by Scientology. The IRS agents finally caved in and granted them their tax exemption status back in 1993. Or was it Scientology LAWYERS who hired the PI&#8217;s to dig up stuff on the IRS agents? The cult lawyers better start planning their exit! Wonder what it will feel like for the hunters to be the hunted?</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s see now, according to ex members, the cult obtains personal information through hired PI&#8217;s, harass and stalk ex members and their families, hold people against their will, they confiscate Sea Org member passports and hold on to them, they rifle through Sea Orger&#8217;s mail, pay Sea Org members below minimum wage, have implemented family disconnection policies, have caused mental and physical abuse, they are operating hundreds of front groups, and have acquired properties and vast amounts of real estate under phony names &#8230;.shall I go on? Do I <em>need</em> to go on?</p>
<p>Hey Governments of the world! Get your head&#8217;s out of your asses and DO SOMETHING!</p>

<p>Many thanks again to the brave former members who have told their stories and are shedding light on the cult, and also many thanks again to Joe Childs and Tom Tobin for helping to do the same.</p>
<p>And again as always&#8230; &#8220;9000 internetz&#8221; and &#8220;caek&#8221; to  the members of Anonymous and their wonderful <a href="http://www.whyweprotest.net/en/" target="_blank">Why We Protest </a>website which is always a wealth of information and fun to visit.</p>

<p>To members still in&#8230;.<br />
Be part of the solution&#8230;. not part of the problem.<br />
After all &#8230;.isn&#8217;t that why you joined Scientology in the first place? To help people?</p>
<p>Take back your life and your freedom.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/insci.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>This past Friday evening, <em><a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/scientology/" target="_blank">ABC&#8217;s Nightline</a></em> aired part two of their <em>Inside Scientology</em>series with anchor Martin Bashir. If you missed it, the videos are posted on ABC&#8217;s website. It is a MUST see.<br />
 Part One is  <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerIndex?id=8896299" target="_blank">here,</a>  and Part Two is <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerIndex?id=8905042" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>Friday&#8217;s show was a continuation from Thursday night&#8217;s interview with ex-Scientology top executives Marty Rathbun, and Amy Scobee, as well as ex member Bruce Hines. They were all former members of Scientology&#8217;s Sea Organization.</p>
<p>Bashir also continued his interview with Scientology spokesman Tommy Davis who ended ripping off his microphone, and storming off the set. We will get to that juicy part later.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/bashir.jpg" alt="" /><br />
ABC Anchor Martin Bashir</p>
<p>Friday evening&#8217;s coverage focused on the celebrities in Scientology. Tom Cruise was the main focus.  Tommy Davis claimed that Scientology does not given special treatment to celebrities, but I beg to differ. Cruise considers cult leader David Miscavige one of his closest friends and Miscavige not only attended Cruise&#8217;s wedding, but he also tagged along on Tom and Katie&#8217;s honeymoon. Doesn&#8217;t everyone bring their &#8220;church&#8221; leader on their honeymoon with them?</p>
<p>Cruise is not only BFF&#8217;s with David Miscavige, but he was also a huge advocate for Scientology. I say &#8220;was&#8221; because Cruise has really simmered down since his couch jumping days. His leaked Scientology video, his insults against Brooke Shields for taking medication for her postpartum depression, and his famous &#8220;glib&#8221; interview with Matt Lauer has put a serious damper on his career and his popularity. </p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sal9.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Matt You Are So Glib!</p>
<p>If you ask just about anyone on the street these days of their opinion of Tom Cruise, most will say he is a kook.</p>
<p>Cruise is trying to re-boost his career, by not speaking publicly about Scientology and trying to show the world how &#8220;normal&#8221; his life is with his family. But are people buying it? I doubt it. Cruise is DEEP into Scientology. He co-founded the NY Rescue Workers and Firefighters Detoxification Program after 911. Again, this program is EXACTLY the same as Scientology&#8217;s Purification Rundown and their Narconon program. </p>
<p>Cruise also lobbied in Washington with a quest to have every school in the US teaching Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard&#8217;s &#8220;tech.&#8221; Applied Scholastics is the front name used in the schools, but it is without a doubt Scientology. Applied Scholastics has already infiltrated some of the schools in the US. I am not talking about Scientology schools like <em>Delphi Academy</em> and Will Smith&#8217;s <em>New Village Academy</em>, but rather regular public schools in our towns that are teaching children Scientology tech.</p>
<p>In Baton Rouge, Louisiana, they started teaching Scientology tech in Prescott Middle School in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Applied Scholastics representatives assured them that the program was secular.  A couple of quotes from <a href="http://www.studytech.org/2007/05/st_pete_timesscientology_makes.php" target="_blank">that story</a> posted on the Scientology V. Education website:</p>
<blockquote><p>The Baton Rouge school district agreed to pay $20, 000 a year to Applied Scholastics for a licensing fee and to hire a teacher from the nonprofit to help teach the course. Costs were offset by seed money that Travolta contributed and by donations from local businesses. Parents were enlisted to volunteer as tutors.</p>
<p>Dave Touretsky, a research professor at Carnegie Mellon University, that&#8217;s only because the academic experts don&#8217;t know the intricacies of Scientology.Study tech is &#8220;covert religious instruction&#8221; and therefore unconstitutional to teach in public schools, said Touretsky, who has studied Scientology and written extensively about Hubbard&#8217;s study skills curriculum.</p>
<p>Scientologists will use the program at Prescott to sell the program to other struggling communities, Touretsky said, and to promote the image of Scientology.</p></blockquote>
<p>Rest assured, the teachers and the people in that town have NO idea what they are teaching these kids, nor understand how dangerous the tech can be for their children. Former Scientology member Monica Pignotti can tell you just exactly how dangerous the study tech is. <a href="http://www.garloff.de/kurt/sekten/mind1.html" target="_blank">Click here </a>to read up on it yourself. I am not sure if Prescott Middle School has continued teaching this tech or not. I hope town officials and teachers have done their homework by now.</p>
<p>So a word of caution people, if your child&#8217;s school is approached with Applied Scholastics or any anti-drug pamphlets that contain the initials &#8220;CCHR&#8221; written anywhere on the pamphlet, please stay clear! The CCHR is another Scientology front group. Also stay away from the names Way To Happiness, or The Drug Free Marshals, just to name a few.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sal7.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Scientology Can Use Some Body Language Courses!</p>
<p>These names are are ALL Scientology front groups. Sorry to sway away from  ABC&#8217;s interview, but any chance I have to make people aware that Scientology is trying to infiltrate our children&#8217;s schools, I feel compelled to make mention of it.</p>
<p>So back to the interview&#8230;</p>
<p>Former Scientology Sea Org member, Amy Scobee who was one of Scientology&#8217;s top execs and also one of the people who spoke out in the <em>St. Petersburg Times</em> articles, spoke with Bashir about the Purification Rundown.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sal5.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Amy Scobee, Blonde On Bottom Right Hand Corner</p>
<p>She tells Bashir a horrifying story about when she was MADE to go on the Purification Rundown as part of a punishment within the Sea Org. Amy explains how daily she was ingesting 5,000 milligrams of niacin, exercising (usually a treadmill), and sitting in a sauna for five hours, for EIGHT MONTHS. She said she had<strong>&#8220;grey stuff &#8221; </strong>coming out of her pores. I would imagine she was also ingesting oil, as this is another part of the Purification Rundown. As horrible as it was for Amy to be on this whacko science regimen, (which does not have any scientific data to back up its claims of actually detoxing the body at all) it was one of the things that woke Amy up and forced her decision to leave Scientology. And we are sure glad she is out. Bravo Amy!</p>
<p>Of course Scientology denies Amy&#8217;s story and says that the Purification Rundown is used for &#8220;religious reasons&#8221; by members. Hmmm.<br />
Scientology is pretty crafty. They use different names for the Purification Rundown, like the NY Firefighters Detox Program, Narconon, and Criminon, and offer this program to the public and ask towns for funding using the town&#8217;s tax payer&#8217;s dollars. Exactly what they do with Applied Scholastics,  and The Drug Free Marshals etc&#8230;</p>
<p>They say that the program is secular and has NOTHING to do with Scientology. But yet when Scientology is pushed up against the wall, (as they were with Amy&#8217;s claims) they claim that the Purification Rundown is for &#8220;religious reasons.&#8221;</p>
<p>So how can they possibly claim that their front group programs are secular and have nothing to do with Scientology, when they are IDENTICAL to the same programs they are calling &#8221;religious&#8221;?<br />
Confusing? That is their intention.</p>
<p>Back to Rathbun&#8230;<br />
Marty Rathbun continued his interview with Bashir and said that he himself has &#8220;audited&#8221; both Tom Cruise and John Travolta. Boy&#8230; I would love to know what is in their files! Of course everything contained within a Scientology member&#8217;s file is supposed to be confidential. That is&#8230;confidential until you cross Scientology. After the <em>St. Petersburg Times</em> articles came out with ex member&#8217;s stories, Scientology published personal information on Amy Scobee, Tom DeVocht, Mike Rinder and Marty Rathbun in a 80 page issue of their <em>Freedom Magazine</em>.</p>
<p>Scientology even gave the &#8220;defectors&#8221; nicknames like the <em>King Pin</em>, <em>The Adulteress</em>, and so on. It was not only the MOST childish thing that I have ever read by an organization, it was rife with lies about the ex-members and Scientology&#8217;s spin. Proving once again that Scientology&#8217;s Fair Game policy is alive and well.</p>
<p>Although it was not brought up in the interview, Rathbun is known as an independent Scientologist. And there are also <em>Freezoners</em>. Freezoners are members who have left the organized &#8220;church,&#8221; but still want to practice Scientology. There are groups of Freezoners here and there world wide. Scientology now considers these people who have previously dedicated years of their lives and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on trying to climb up the Scientology&#8217;s Bridge their evil enemies. They are considered as SP&#8217;s, or suppressive persons.</p>
<p>Freezoners left the church as they felt that L. Ron Hubbard&#8217;s Tech was being &#8220;squirreled&#8221; by cult leader David Miscavige. To &#8221;squirrel the tech&#8221; means to change the writings of L. Ron Hubbard in any way. Miscavige has changed the tech many times. He has changed it, repackaged it, and told the members that the old books were now incorrect, and that they had to buy the &#8220;newer&#8221; version. This was done to keep more money coming into Scientology. Sadly, members actually fell for it.</p>
<p>Changing any of L. Ron Hubbard&#8217;s tech is considered a <strong>big </strong> no-no in Scientology and many current members consider David Miscavige to be a suppressive person. Why they continue to stay in the &#8220;church&#8221; is a mystery. But slowly, that seems to be changing.</p>
<p>People who are Freezoners, also did not agree with the way the &#8220;church&#8221; was being run and could no longer stand all the abuses and illegal activities that were going on, so they decided to leave the &#8220;church&#8221; and set up business elsewhere,  and yes it is in fact a business. People who want to practice Scientology outside the cult still have to pay for auditing and courses to whomever is offering them. What they charge is nowhere near the hundreds of thousands of dollars that organized Scientology charges. Which is where Rathbun comes in. He was one of Scientology&#8217;s top auditors before he left, and he continues to audit people today.</p>
<p>If today&#8217;s organized Scientology continues to crumble, Rathbun can end up with more &#8220;disciples&#8221; to audit. Perhaps he is hopeful for Travolta and Cruise to leave the cult and audit with him once again. Not likely though, especially not for Cruise. Cruise considers Rathbun an enemy of the cult and and a huge SP. Cruise does not appreciate what Rathbun is saying about David Miscavige and the abuses of the cult.</p>
<p>Tom Cruise&#8217;s lawyer sent a statement to ABC Nightline and stated that even though Cruise is aware of the things being said about David Miscavige, Cruise does not believe it.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sal10.jpg" alt="" /><br />
BFF&#8217;s For Ever!</p>
<p>Really Tom? Miscavige is ruining your career in case you didn&#8217;t notice. How many people is it going to take for you to wake up and understand that David Miscavige is an abusive tyrant who only wanted you for PR purposes to promote the cult and oh yeah&#8230;take your money?</p>
<p>And as Bashir pointed out to Davis in the interview&#8230;these stories of abuse from ex-members were from randomized people. And of course Davis quipped back to Bashir with &#8220;<em>Well that&#8217;s how it is made to look</em>.&#8221;  Sure it is Tommy.</p>
<p>Rathbun was in Scientology for 27 years, and his brain is totally immersed in the tech. He still believes that con man L. Ron Hubbard is the best thing since sliced bread and that his writings are still WORD.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sal8.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Giddy Up L. Ron!</p>
<p>Rathbun never completely left Scientology, and he probably never will. But we are awful glad he came forward to speak out, as well as the others. Many more are likely to follow.</p>
<p>After 27 years, and being one of Miscavige&#8217;s top lieutenants, <br />
Rathbun is still programmed to live, eat and breathe Scientology. Rathbun also thinks David Miscavige should be made &#8220;to pay the piper&#8221; for all the people he has abused. Of course Rathbun himself admitted to being an abuser, but he never mentioned that he should pay the piper as well. Hmmm.</p>
<p>Freezoners who continue to practice Scientology, still mean they are being brainwashed, no matter how you cut it.  It&#8217;s the way the courses, the auditing and the drills were set up by Hubbard, at least there isn&#8217;t a Sea Org and David Miscavige is out of the picture. But hey, people can believe in what they want, as long as it doesn&#8217;t hurt and abuse others and as long as it doesn&#8217;t end up being another <br />
abusive cult off-shoot.</p>
<p>So getting back to Scientology spokesman Mr.Tommy Davis.<br />
As I mentioned in the last article on this series, Tommy Davis&#8217; body language was VERY telling. Again, I noticed he sat with tightly clenched hands, laughed nervously, and at one point was sitting with his arms and legs totally crossed. He looked like he was wrapped so tight, that you couldn&#8217;t pull a pin out if his butt with a tractor.<br />
Bashir proceeds to ask Tommy about the e-meter and HIS own personal beliefs. Tommy was not very convincing when it came to the e-meter. The conversation went as follows:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Bashir:</strong> Has the e-meter ever been subjected to randomized clinical trials to assess it&#8217;s efficacy?</p>
<p><strong>Davis:</strong> I have no idea. I don&#8217;t know why it would be. <em>It works in Scientology and that&#8217;s what people use it</em>. I don&#8217;t know why it would be subjected to random clinical trials.</p>
<p><strong>Bashir:</strong> Because it&#8217;s a&#8230; mechanism for therapeutic care you just said&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Davis</strong>: In a religion.</p>
<p><strong>Bashir</strong>: But has it ever been tested objectively is what I&#8217;m asking?</p>
<p><strong>Davis:</strong> I mean it gets used every day by Scientology counselors.</p>
<p><strong>Bashir</strong>: I&#8217;m not asking that. I&#8217;m asking&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Davis:</strong> To my knowledge, no. &#8230; And as far as evidence of the e-meter and its efficacy, the evidence of that is in those Scientologists who have used it to great benefit. And as far as the Church of Scientology is concerned, it&#8217;s the only evidence that matters, is the people and the results.</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;In a religion?&#8221; Then why is the e-meter used for Scientology &#8220;Stress Tests&#8221; on the general public?</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/audit.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Typical Stress Test Set Up On Sidewalk</p>
<p>I wish Bashir asked Davis that question and I also wish there was an e-meter present at Bashir&#8217;s interview. Of course Tommy would never agree to be put &#8220;on the cans.&#8221;I also doubt that Scientology would ever agree to have an e-meter present at ANY interview.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s hard to believe that the e-meter has never been tested objectively or questioned. It obviously instills fear in so many of its members because of it being an actual lie detector. It also enslaves members. And although I am sure Scientologists sign all sorts of waivers, using an e-meter on cult members seems not only highly questionable, but illegal. Attention Government!</p>
<p>The e-meter is supposedly considered a &#8221;religious artifact&#8221; by Scientology. FYI, they tell their members to buy TWO e-meters. (one for back up of course)  E-meters cost THOUSANDS of dollars. Boy, talk about a scam.</p>
<p>Keep in mind, as I mentioned before, these e-meters are present on all of the Scientology &#8220;Stress Test&#8221; tables that you may see set up outside one of their &#8220;orgs.&#8221; Sadly, you can see them at flea markets, street fairs, or just set up on a sidewalk in a town. They even set up outside Walmart! You won&#8217;t see the word Scientology anywhere on their tables though. I thought I read by law, that each e-meter used by the public is supposed to carry a label on the back of it in which it states that it is used for &#8220;entertainment purposes only&#8221;. That&#8217;s funny, I thought Davis claimed it was used for &#8220;religious&#8221; purposes? Confused? Again&#8230;. Scientology&#8217;s intention.</p>
<p>Scientology claims that they can cure what ails you with auditing, and this has been recorded by some who have taken the Stress Test. Deception personified. Anything to get &#8220;fresh meat&#8221; into their doors.</p>
<p>After people take a stress test, they try to get the person to buy a Dianetics book and maybe visit their local Scientology &#8220;org&#8221; to take a &#8220;personality test.&#8221; They will also ask for your personal information at that point. After the test, they will look over your results and tell you that you are not a very happy person, and you have problems, no matter how happy you are and that they can help you. They will also ask you to watch a film, and then perhaps some time you may want to take some of their &#8221;communication courses&#8221; that will help you, and then eventuall get you on to auditing. That&#8217;s where the brainwashing begins and that&#8217;s when they will never leave you alone once they have your personal information. Tell me how this is this still legal again?</p>
<p>So back to the juicy part of the ABC&#8217;s interview&#8230;<br />
Why did Bashir say to Tommy Davis to get him so hot under the collar? So hot, that he got up and walked out.  He asked him about his beliefs. Most people when they are asked about their beliefs or about their religion, will gladly tell you all about it. Especially someone who is supposed to be a representative for a church.</p>
<p>But let me first explain.. If you are a Scientologist, you are not allowed to discuss your &#8220;religious beliefs&#8221; or where you are on Scientology&#8217;s Bridge To Total Freedom with non Scientologists. You can discuss your phony &#8220;wins&#8221;. But that&#8217;s about it. Scientologists are not allowed to discuss any problems they are having, doubts or say anything that can be considered negative against Scientology. If a member did discuss these things, and someone were to report it, than that person would be considered PTS. (potential trouble source). This can mean MORE hours of auditing or a &#8220;sect check&#8221; if you are in the Sea Org, which is interrogation. It can also lead to family disconnection of not corrected.</p>
<p>As stated before, Scientology&#8217;s e-meter works like a lie detector as confirmed by ex member Bruce Hines when he was talking with Bashir. Of course many ex members who have left that didn&#8217;t continue with Scientology as a Freezoner will also tell you that the e-meter is nothing more than a lie detector. If you lie while you are &#8220;on the cans&#8221; it will certainly show. It has nothing to do with &#8220;engrams&#8221; or removing body thetans from your body as Scientologists are convinced to believe. It&#8217;s a damn lie detector. </p>
<p>Pretty snakey of Hubbard. Scientology brainwashes members and puts them on an e-meter to find out all their intimate secrets and then puts all that information into a file and then blackmails ex members by leaking their personal information if they decide to leave and speak out against the cult. What a lovely &#8220;church&#8221; indeed.</p>
<p>FYI, Hubbard wasn&#8217;t the one who invented the e-meter it was actually Volney Mathison.  And another FYI&#8230;.most of Hubbard&#8217;s <em> <span style="text-decoration: line-through">babblings</span></em> are gleaned from various other religions and smooshed all together. Buddhism being one. Hubbard stole everything from everywhere.</p>
<p>So getting back to Tommy and Bashir.<br />
Bashir wanted to know if Tommy believed in the story of XENU. (pronounced zeenoo) For those of you who do not know who Xenu is, the story of Xenu can be found anywhere on the internet. The story on the internet is actually the EXACT story written by founder L. Ron Hubbard. It is also level three or OTIII, on Scientology&#8217;s Bridge to Total Freedom. Which we at Glosslip call the Bridge to Nowhere and Financial Ruin.</p>
<p>There are two ways to climb up the Bridge, but we are not going to get into all that. But one way in order to start climbing up the eight levels Scientology&#8217;s Bridge, a member must be deemed &#8220;clear&#8221; before he can be an &#8220;OT&#8221; and start up the Bridge. This costs hundreds of thousands of dollars and many hours of auditing, drills and courses in order to get up to that level. This can take many years.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sal6.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Scientology also tells it&#8217;s members that if they were to read OTIII without going the proper path, (called &#8220;free wheeling&#8221; in scio-speak) that they can catch a pneumonia and possibly die. I kid you not. They also tell their members that some members have become very ill while doing OTIII.  And before all you Scientologists out there try to defend OTIII, and say that most religions have crazy stories attached to them, which I totally agree&#8230;.. Two things.</p>
<p>Number one&#8230;. Scientology is not a religion, it is a business, and number two&#8230; I think all the stories attached to religions are ALL eye rollers.</p>
<p>When Bashir asked Tommy if he believed in the story of Xenu and volcanoes and such, Tommy said:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Martin, I am not going to discuss, the disgusting perversions of Scientology beliefs that can be found now commonly on the internet, and be put in the position of talking about things for ah, ah, ah, that, ah, talking about things that are so, fundamentally offensive, to Scientologists to discuss.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Disgusting perversions of Scientology?<br />
Why not see for yourself? <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenu" target="_blank">OTIII is on Wikipedia</a> and many other places on the internet for free.</p>
<p>To help you understand the story of Xenu&#8230; A YouTuber posted a video which tells the story of Xenu via <em>South Park</em>. (which Scientology had squashed and taken off the air of course) <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0AFVVToZsY&amp;feature=PlayList&amp;p=4378F6D7C4404CB9&amp;playnext=1&amp;playnext_from=PL&amp;index=63" target="_blank">Click here</a> to watch it.</p>
<p>Now although the show South Park is of course a comedy, the OTIII they recited was not a joke nor a spoof. It was told exactly the way it was written by Hubbard. This particular YouTube video, brilliantly included the actual 1967 lecture by L. Ron Hubbard himself who is reciting the story of Xenu and OTIII. It&#8217;s Hubbard&#8217;s own voice. This video was an excellent way to prove that the story of Xenu and OTIII is in fact told correctly. Any ex member who has done OTIII will also tell you that what is on the internet is EXACTLY the same as the OTIII level they went through and paid for. ASK THEM YOURSELF.</p>
<p>Now why do you think Scientology doesn&#8217;t want it&#8217;s members to know or hear about Xenu? Remember their claims of getting ill?<br />
Now what if a member happened to hear OTIII and realized that they didn&#8217;t get ill from hearing it or reading it and found out what Scientology told them was a lie? How would Scientology look then? Check it out for yourself. Look it up and read it, or watch the video I suggested. See if you get ill! *snicker*</p>
<p>OTIII is such an outlandish piece of sci fi idiocy, that Scientology also fears that if their members were to hear it, they would stop paying to go up the Bridge. What member would pay ALL that money to go up the Bridge if they knew OTIII was about space aliens that were dumped in a volcano? Not too many.</p>
<p>Now you are probably thinking, then why doesn&#8217;t Miscavige just change OTIII or tone the story down a bit? Well if he did that, he would have to change the entire Bridge.  Reason being&#8230;. in OTIII, you learn that your body is infested with body thetans which came out of the volcanos. As you are go farther up the Bridge to the upper levels, members find out that they have even MORE body thetans attached to them that they have to get rid of via auditing on the e-meter. (of course this is more money for Scientology) So getting rid of OTIII, would not be an option. Besides the fact that OTIII is what Scientology is all about with the exception of their communication courses.</p>
<p>So after Bashir tries to calm Davis down (and I am paraphrasing a bit) by saying he is just trying to understand his beliefs and that he thinks he has been acting appropriately during the interview and didn&#8217;t try to mock Davis in any way&#8230;. he then asks Davis again about Xenu.<br />
Davis replied angrily:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I&#8217;m gonna stop you. If you&#8217;re gonna ask me that question again, and you&#8217;re going to repeat things about volcanoes and this kind of thing, and so on and so forth, I will stand up and walk out Martin. Because, because what you&#8217;re doing by doing that, is you are intentionally asking me things which you know I find offensive. And you&#8217;re insisting me on asking of them, so I&#8217;m asking you one more time&#8230;&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Too bad Bashir didn&#8217;t ask Davis why there is a volcano pictured on the front cover of all Scientology Dianetics books and why it is used as Dianetic&#8217;s logo. These books with the volcanoes can be seen in every single Scientology display window across the USA and worldwide.</p>
<p>Of course Bashir (my new hero) asks Davis again about Xenu, and that is when Davis stands up, rips off his mike, throws it down and walks out of the interview. Hmmm, seems like Davis could have used some of Scientology&#8217;s communication courses.  *snicker*<br />
After all, Hubbard stated that &#8220;communication is the universal solvent&#8221;. Uh&#8230; yeah ok Lafayette.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that Davis was most likely drilled extensively by Miscavige before this interview, as with every other interview he does. But nobody really knows what Miscavige is telling Davis when it comes to the story of Xenu. We don&#8217;t know if he is <em>in </em>on the scam, or where Davis is in his Scientology teachings. Davis is trying to convince people that it is offensive to speak about his religious beliefs, when it actuality, it is only a ploy to continue to keep Scientology&#8217;s scam a secret.</p>
<p>But one thing for sure, no matter how much Davis is drilled before these interviews, he still sports very telling negative body language, he is way too defensive about Scientology beliefs, and he always ends up putting his foot in his mouth.</p>
<p>Bashir was certainly &#8220;at cause&#8221; over Davis. Davis walking out of that interview, not only made Scientology look <strong>very bad, </strong> but I was kind of surprised about the REASON why he walked out. WHY?</p>
<p>Davis was interviewed by <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vviGgURRLkM" target="_blank">John Roberts on CNN</a> a while back, and Roberts also asked Davis about the story of Xenu. Davis said that it didn&#8217;t sound familiar to him and he was laughing and smirking as if to imply the whole thing was ridiculous. </p>
<p>But THEN not very long ago&#8230;.. Davis did another interview with <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLG3teVnszQ" target="_blank">Nathan Bacca for KESQ</a>. Bacca asks Davis MANY questions and also asked Davis about the story of Xenu, and Davis said he WAS familiar with the material, and again said he was offended by Bacca asking him about religious beliefs. *scratches head*<br />
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YwY4mXrS58" target="_blank">This YouTube video</a>, shows a good cross section of Tommy Davis and his ever changing story of OTIII which was reported by an Australian news channel.</p>
<p>So what gives Tommy? Are you NOT keeping track of what you are saying during these interviews? Or are you hoping that people didn&#8217;t see your prior interviews? </p>
<p>No worries Tommy&#8230;<br />
because we are keeping track of  everything you say for you. It&#8217;s all over the internet. on forums and all over YouTube. </p>
<p>Between Tommy Davis&#8217;s footbullets, Scientology&#8217;s court cases, and a group called Anonymous who protest the cult MONTHLY and globally, Scientology has seen better days. And Tommy&#8230;. every time you stick you foot in your mouth, people everywhere are watching, recording, talking and writing about it. You have to be getting pretty tired of the taste of foot.</p>
<p>Bashir ended the interview with a recap and at the very end he asked viewers if they thought that Scientology should keep their tax exemption status and to go to the ABC website and leave their opinions. At that point I felt like I was at a football game, as I stood straight up from the couch and cheered &#8221; YES!!&#8221;<br />
It was the perfect &#8220;bazingo&#8221; at the end of the series.</p>
<p>Glosslip would like to thank ABC and Martin Bashir once again for their wonderful coverage on Scientology. We hope this is only the beginning of shedding more light on this abusive cult, and hope it wakes up our Government and law officials enough to finally step in and say enough is enough.</p>
<p>To all members who are still in Scientology. If you are having doubts, please know that you are not alone. If you have come to the realization that something has gone terribly wrong with your &#8220;church&#8221;&#8230; again, you are not alone. Many members are leaving and orgs are struggling to stay open. Don&#8217;t be part of the problem, be part of the solution.</p>
<p>If you need help leaving Scientology, or you just need someone to talk to&#8230;<br />
call 1-866-XSEAORG. This is a toll free call.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sal3.jpg" alt="" /><br />
You Can Do It! Be Free!</p>
<p>Speaking of leaving Scientology&#8230;</p>
<p>Glosslip would like to congratulate Paul Haggis who has just left Scientology! Paul was a member for over THIRTY FIVE YEARS. He is a screen writer, a director, has won Oscars, and is a civil and human rights activist. Paul wrote a letter to Tommy Davis. In that letter, he complained about San Diego Org&#8217;s public support of Proposition 8, about Davis denying the existence of family disconnection when he was interviewed, and how he was also against Scientology using ex member&#8217;s private information to attack critics. To read his actual letter he sent to Tommy Davis, you can find a copy of it on WWP. <a href="http://forums.whyweprotest.net/291-scientology-discussion/paul-haggis-quote-55159/#post1041211" target="_blank">Click here.</a><br />
Welcome out Paul!</p>
<p>And as always&#8230;<br />
Many thanks to Anonymous for their continued tenacity in fighting this cult. Their quest is to stop the abuses of Scientology and totally dismantle the Sea Org and to have fun along the way. <br />
I totally support their fight.<br />
I would also like to thank Anonymous for their <a href="http://www.whyweprotest.net/en/" target="_blank">Why We Protest website</a>, their <a href="http://wiki.whyweprotest.net/Main_Page" target="_blank">Why We Protest Wiki</a>, (which is a WEALTH of information) and for a whole lot of lulz!<br />
Yummy cake to you all!</p>

<p>It&#8217;s hump day and what&#8217;s been going on in the world of celebrity gossip lately?<br />
Same old crap and some new crap.</p>
<p>Lindsey Lohan went to court and partied the night before and the night after her court hearing. Yawn!<br />
But wait&#8230; she said she&#8217;s afraid her Dad may kidnap her now. Uh.. again yawn. Wake me up when she does something new.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s also up?<br />
Not <em>Balloon Boy!  </em>That news is SO rampant, that I am already tired of it. But it looks like reality has caught up with the Heenes. Honestly, I caught these loons on <em>Wife Swap</em> a while back and the father was a hot headed, delusional wacko, who thinks the sun rises and sets by him. I thought this man was questionable way back then, but you can&#8217;t always tell, with the way &#8220;reality&#8221; shows edit their shows. But now we know for sure. Yep! My gut instinct was totally spot on.</p>
<p>Now I think his wife is either abused and doesn&#8217;t know enough to get away and agrees with everything her idiot husband does regardless, or she actually agrees with everything her hubby does and also thinks you should raise your children by dragging them to twister romps and pulling them out of school and allowing them to trash talk to whomever they want. Either scenario is SAD. <br />
Oh! Have you seen their <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8Ns87YkdRI" target="_blank">video</a> on YouTube? I can&#8217;t understand what the hell they are singing about, but it looks pretty darn questionable. Future Beastie Boys ya think?</p>
<p>I wonder if wifey-poo will throw hubby under the bus, when it comes down to their day in court? Get out the popcorn! And as far as reality fame goes? Heenes&#8230; you got it now! Yah happy?</p>
<p>And more people who get under my skin&#8230;<br />
Elisabeth Hasselbeck is back on <em>The View</em>. (oh joy) <br />
I guess little <em>Ms. Perfect</em> sent out some not so perfect baby pictures of her baby AND a guest appearance of her nipple to her friends and family by mistake. HA HA HA! This story brought me so much joy.</p>
<p>On to other idiots&#8230;<br />
Rod Blagojevich (again NOT a celebrity), WILL appear on <em>Celebrity Apprentice</em>, yet another reason not to watch Trump&#8217;s show ever again.</p>
<p>And even more idiots&#8230;<br />
Stephanie Pratt was busted for DUI. I wonder what bible thumper sista -in-law Heidi Montag will have to say about this? Maybe Heidi can get Stephen Baldwin to baptize Stephanie for her. &#8216;Cause we all know just how beneficial it was for Heidi. Praise Jesus!</p>
<p>And on to the King  and Queen of idiots&#8230;<br />
Jon Gosselin is still hated by the majority of America. Well wait a minute&#8230;I stand corrected. Octomom, Nadya Suleman told <a href="http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2009/10/exclusive-video-interview-octo-mom%E2%80%99s-secret-crush-i-think-jon-gosselin-hot" target="_blank">Radar Online</a> she thought Jon Gosselin was hot and has a crush on him. Ummm&#8230; hot?Perhaps Nadya needs her eyes checked and should pick up a paper every once in a while. Oh that&#8217;s right, she has 14 children, who has time?</p>
<p>But sorry Octomon, Jon was too busy getting his sexy on in a fancy cab with gal pal Hailey Glassman.<br />
Hey Jon, you sure you want to pass this up? Could be a new show fer yah!<br />
How about &#8220;John +Nadya +14+ 8 = The Earth Spinning Off It&#8217;s Axis&#8221;?</p>
<p>Well not if TLC has anything to say about it! They are already suing Jon for breech of contract, of course.<br />
And he also has been ordered to pay back $180,00.00 back to his account with Kate. Kate ALSO has been ordered to pay some money back too. Seems like Karma has been rearing it&#8217;s ugly head with those two.</p>
<p>And speaking of Octomom, the Doc that implanted the SIX embryos (one split into two) into Octomom has been booted from the practice where he was employed for not following the rules. But of course he is still allowed to practice. Who knows what he will do now that he is on his own. I smell another reality show?<br />
I can hear the promo now&#8230;<br />
<em>&#8220;Meet Dr. Eggo! He&#8217;s serving them sunny side up, so you too can have your very own reality show and start exploiting your very own litter of children in no time! Hey! Let Go Of My Eggo!&#8221;<br />
</em><br />
Seriously, have you seen the latest clip of Octomon and her brood with all those kids crying? It makes me want to pull my hair out.</p>
<p>Speaking of child exploitation, Kate Gosselin tells Vanity Fair she &#8221;feels like a prisoner&#8221; of her own fame and that the kids are starting to act out. STARTING to act out? Wow, if seeing Maddy in previous shows was only the start of her bitchdom, I woudn&#8217;t want to see her now. That child is not a force to be reckoned with! And please Kate&#8230;  let me get out the violin&#8230;.you were being interviewed by VANITY FAIR and getting paid for it. Prisoner my ass!</p>
<p>On to more phony things&#8230;.<br />
Miss California, Carrie Prejean is being sued for her her boobs! K2 Productions (which directs the California USA pageant ) is asking Carrie for $5,200 back. I guess they paid for her boob job. K2 says it&#8217;s not about the money, and the money will go to charity. I doubt if will want the implants back. *snicker*</p>
<p>Speaking of cash&#8230;.<br />
Nicholas Cage is in a heap of debt. Cage is suing his former manager Samuel Levin for $20 million. Levin allegedly screwed with Cage&#8217;s money and Cage says that his manager is the one responsible for his current debt headache. Word of advice Nick&#8230;. don&#8217;t wait seven years before you check up on hired help that handles all your dough.</p>
<p>And on to big sloppy messes&#8230;<br />
Anna Nicole Smith is back in the news again. Well, the court case of her doctors and Howard Stern that is.<br />
In court, Larry Birkhead told a scathing account of Anna&#8217;s drug use while she was pregnant. </p>
<p>Maurice Brighthaupt, former bodyguard of Anna, claims he saw Howard Stern, and Dr. Eroshevich injecting Anna with needles. He also said he saw Anna injecting herself. Why did this guy wait so long with this information? Supposedly Dr. Eroshevich was the bodyguard&#8217;s friend, as well as Stern. Sorry! No excuse.</p>
<p>Supposedly Anna Nicole was drinking pedialyte out of a baby bottle and laying in her own feces when found. Why was she ever brought to Florida in this condition? Now I know Anna was a complete mess with drugs, but when someone is that addicted to drugs and that incapacitated, she should have received help from the people around her, especially her doctors and those closest to her. Not checking into a Florida hotel. Stern was not present at her death, he was busy seeing a man about boat.</p>
<p>The IRS is also in play with Anna Nicole these days, and have filed a $125,112.86 tax lien on the estate of Vickie Lynn Marshall. So much for resting in Peace. Geez, what a mess.</p>
<p>And some weirdness in the news&#8230;<br />
Marge Simpson is on the cover of Playboy&#8217;s October issue. Sorry, I didn&#8217;t find it at all amusing and I refuse to show a picture of it.<br />
In fact I poo poo Playboy for advertising the Simpsons.</p>
<p>Nancy Cartwright, the voice of Bart Simpson, Scientologist extraordinaire, donated TEN MILLLION DOLLARS to Scientology in May of 2008. Anyone that supports the Simpsons in any way is inadvertently giving money to Scientology down the line. Why would Cartwright give the money to her children, when she would rather hand it over to Scientology? Gotta keep everything KSW! (Keep Scientology Working) Right Nancy? Hope she wakes up some day.</p>
<p>Speaking of naughty pictures.<br />
Levi Johnston (former husband of Bristol Palin) will be posing for <em>Playgirl</em> and has been in the gym bulking up for his upcoming saucy shots. I also caught him on a commercial for <em>Wonderful Pistachio</em> nuts. Yes, the man who will soon be showing his nuts was hawking nuts on TV. The commercial shows him with an immense bodyguard and Levi is eating a few nuts and the tag line says &#8220;Now Levi Johnston does it with protection&#8221;<br />
I kid you not. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggB6SsB4DgM&amp;feature=player_embedded" target="_blank">See the commercial for yourself</a>!<br />
Wow! Talking about pissing Palin off! Yeehaw!</p>
<p>But wait it gets better&#8230;.<br />
Levi was interviewed by <a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2009/10/levi-johnston200910" target="_blank">Vanity Fair</a>. The name of the article is &#8220;Me and Mrs. Palin&#8221;.<br />
<img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lev.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Levi dishes about Palin and her lack of parenting, her bad moods, Todd flipping out and Levi was quoted as saying,</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I thought, Was this woman—who, at home, would literally say things that did not make sense—<em>really</em> running for vice president?&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>You go Levi! I have a new respect for the boy. *snicker*</p>
<p>Then we move on to more puzzling things&#8230;<br />
The court case of John Travolta.<br />
Readers are probably wondering why I haven&#8217;t reported on this case as of yet. The testimonies in the court case were changing on a such a daily basis with so much &#8220;<em>he said/she said</em>&#8221; garbage going on, and with changing stories, that if I wrote about what was happening <em>as</em> it happened, I would have had to edit the story every single day.</p>
<p>I will be covering this story when and if I feel that some sort of conclusion of sorts has been made. I will say that this case has been one big puzzle of unanswered questions on BOTH sides.</p>
<p>And speaking of The Travoltas moving on &#8230;<br />
Both Kelly and John attended the IAS (International Association of Scientologists)<br />
Scientology 25th Anniversary at Scientology&#8217;s St. Hill Org in England.<br />
Sadly, it looks like John will not be leaving this cult any time soon.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/id.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Tom Cruise, Katie and Suri were also in attendance. Poor Katie and Suri.</p>
<p>Scientology wanted people to believe that 4,000 people were in attendance at their event. ROTFL!<br />
That number is just classic Scientology spin in which they are so famous for. They usually have to fly and bus tons of people in, as well as dressing up their Sea Orgers members to fill in the seats so it will look full. Reason for this? So their IAS PR photo will look like they are still successful to their members. It&#8217;s an old smoke and mirrors trick of Scientology, so they can continue to deceive their members. Lovely, isn&#8217;t it?</p>
<p>The IAS is nothing more than members donating money to Scientology. (which the majority goes straight to cult leader David Miscavige) In return for their donation, they get a discount on courses, auditing and such. Which is not a discount at all since they are donating money. Duh!</p>
<p>Cruise and Travoilta have donated millions and millions of dolllars to Scientology. Exactly what Scientology does with all that money as fas as &#8220;helping&#8221; to &#8220;clear the planet&#8221;  is a mystery. The money goes to buy more buildings that stand idle, make Miscavige richer and pay for all their pending court cases, lawyers and Sci goons. Oh! and I almost forgot, they have to pay their Sea Org slave labor members about .25 cents an hour.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.usmagazine.com/celebritynews/news/tomkattravoltas-20092010" target="_blank">US Magazine reported</a> on the 25th Anniversary and quoted Cruise about the Scientology protestors outside the event:</p>
<blockquote><p>Later, during a reception, Cruise was overheard chatting with another American man about the protesters outside the venue. &#8220;They&#8217;re squirrels,&#8221; Cruise said angrily, according to a witness. &#8220;Stuck in an electronic incident. It makes me so angry!&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;Protesters are squirrels stuck in an electronic incident?&#8221;<br />
Oh Tom, you certainly are one brainwashed mofo.<br />
A &#8221;squirrel&#8221; in scio-speak, means someone that messes or changes the tech of dead cult founder L. Ron Hubbard. Aka &#8220;squirreling the tech&#8221;. And &#8220;stuck in an electronic incident&#8221; is more scio babble from Hubbard&#8217;s work.</p>
<p>I wonder if Cruise actually said this though? Personally, I think if anything he would of called the protesters SP&#8217;s (suppressive people) not squirrels. And I think the &#8220;stuck in an electronic incident&#8221; line may have been borrowed from a video of another wacky Scientologist named George, which we reported on recently. Many duplicate <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy_9BAauNVk&amp;feature=PlayList&amp;p=A72624B4147F8BE1&amp;playnext=1&amp;playnext_from=PL&amp;index=12" target="_blank">videos</a> of Scientologist George (who is an OTVIII, the highest that you can get on Scientology&#8217;s Bridge) showed up on YouTube and showed just how brainwashed Scientologists become the longer they stay in. The video is totally unscripted and SAD.</p>
<p>Cruise is supposedly an OTVII on The Bridge To Nowhere.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/mot.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>One more level to go Tom until you reach the tippety top to the Bridge of Total Freedom!<br />
Yippee!<br />
Good luck with that Tom! Wait till you see what OTVIII is all about!<br />
SO worth the millions and millions of dollars that you blew. *snicker*</p>
<p>And now for something completely different and funny&#8230;.<br />
I was watching TV the other night, and there was a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2fg_hnxr-g" target="_blank">brief teaser</a> for Season 6 of the steamy <em>Nip /Tuck</em> show, which started on Oct 14th. I thought I was seeing things, when I saw Mario Lopez completely decked out in black lingerie complete with a garter belt and black stockings. But no, I looked it up and yep it was none other than A. C. Slater (his name on Saved By The Bell) in drag!</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/ml.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Mario played Dr. Mike Hamoui on the series and he was seen in a steamy shower scene in a previous episode. Damn! I am going to have to start watching that show! Kudos for Mario for having the balls of steel for donning the less than flattering get up.</p>
<p>And even though Mario is one huge piece of eye candy&#8230;<br />
sorry, this outfit just doesn&#8217;t cut it for me Mario. *snicker*</p>

What&#8217;s That I Hear? Trouble Knocking Once Again?</p>
<p>It wasn&#8217;t too long ago, that <a href="http://glosslip.com/index.php?s=david+hasselhoff" target="_blank">we reported</a> that David Hasselhoff aka <em>The Hoff</em>  had once again fell off the wagon.</p>
<p>Who can forget Hoff in a drunken stupor laying on the floor eating a hamburger and his daughter Taylor filming the whole thing. In the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QH3JAp7vMuo" target="_blank"> sad video</a>, you can hear his daughter pleading with him and asking him to promise her that he will stop drinking.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/dhoff2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Well I guess her wishes are trashed once again. As Hoff got totally trashed at Simon Cowell&#8217;s b-day bash recently.<br />
He was SO trashed, that Hoff tried to punch his assistant because his assistant called for help. Hoff missed the assistant, and punched a doctor by mistake. He was then locked up in the hotel basement until the ambulance arrived.<br />
Bravo Hoff! Way to go!</p>
<p>So I guess when he means don&#8217;t hassle the Hoff, you best not hassle the Hoff!</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/dhoff1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><a href="http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b148384_uk_doc_learns_you_hassel_hoff_own_risk.html" target="_blank">Eonline</a> reported:</p>
<blockquote><p>America&#8217;s Got Talent judge David Hasselhoff clearly has a talent&#8230;for bad publicity, if nothing else. According to reports, the Baywatch bruiser and popular-in-Germany crooner had too much to drink and slugged the doctor at his London hotel after returning from Simon Cowell&#8217;s birthday bash.</p>
<p>The semi reliable New York Post and the oft-dubious U.K. Sun report that Hasselhoff was actually trying to slug his assistant for calling the doctor. According to a source close to the actor, &#8220;David was furious and lashed out at him—but he mistakenly hit the doctor.&#8221;</p>
<p>The source added that, &#8220;David is very hard to handle when he drinks, often very emotional and aggressive. On this occasion he&#8230;was becoming a real pain to the staff.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hasselhoff reportedly had to be locked in the hotel basement until an ambulance arrived, according to the Sun. He was later taken to London&#8217;s Capio Nightingale Hospital, where he reportedly spent two nights in a private room before being released yesterday.<br />
Stay tuned.</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;Stay tuned&#8221; for what?<br />
There have been SO many reports of Hoff crawling back into that bottle. He was denied boarding a plane at London&#8217;s Heathrow airport a while back because he was so lit. Of course his reps denied he was drunk.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b145259_hasselhoff_bad_drug_reaction_not_bad.html" target="_blank">He was recently hospitalized </a>because he was found dizzy and unstable. His reps again denied he was drinking and said that the rumors were &#8220;complete fabrications&#8221; and that Hoff was taking anti nausea drugs for recovering alcoholics.<br />
Uh&#8230; sorry, I am not buying it.</p>
<p>To continually hear that Hoff is not getting any better is just sad. Hoff has a huge following, especially in Germany and I am sure his fans are rooting for him to kick that bottle to the curb.</p>
<p>There are also many Knight Rider fans out there. Too bad Kitt wasn&#8217;t around to tell Hoff to knock it off. Maybe he would listen to Kitt. Nothing else has worked.</p>
<p>I always thought Hoff was a big goofball, but of course I still wish him the best. He has two beautiful daughters who need him to be a responsible father. Or at least awake at the very least.<br />
But so far, he continues to jump off the wagon.</p>
<p>So back to his recent escapade&#8230;</p>
<p>The <a href="http://thesuperficial.com/2009/10/david_hasselhoff_adds_pants-pi.ph" target="_blank">superficial</a>, another source wrote:</p>
<blockquote><p>The bender began at the weekend when the US actor joined about 400 A-listers at X Factor supremo Simon Cowell&#8217;s posh birthday party. He got smashed and was escorted out of a side door and back to the hotel.<br />
A source close to the star said: &#8220;David is very hard to handle when he drinks, often very emotional and aggressive. On this occasion he became so drunk he wet his hotel bed &#8211; ruining two mattresses &#8211; and was becoming a real pain for staff. His assistant Joe Townley was so concerned he called out a doctor. David was furious and lashed out at him &#8211; but mistakenly hit the doctor.<br />
&#8220;They decided they had no option but to lock him in the basement until an ambulance arrived.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Well Hoff is definitely off my holiday party guest list this year. *snicker*</p>
<p>But seriously, Hoff&#8217;s reps can&#8217;t keep lying for him. It becomes more than obvious that he has not stopped drinking. You can only cry wolf so many times.</p>
<p>Hey Hoff, once again&#8230;.<br />
Please get your sh*t together. Climb back on that wagon, there is plenty of room.<br />
If not for yourself, then at least do it for your two beautiful daughters.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/courtney6.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Wake Up Courtney! Time To Go To Court!</p>
<p>Courtney Love.<br />
Just the name conjures up the feeling of Ewww.</p>
<p>Courtney has her knickers in a bunch (when are they not in a bunch?) over the way <em>Activision</em> used ex hubby Kurt Cobain&#8217;s image in <em>Guitar Hero 5</em>.</p>
<p>The agreement was to supposedly have Cobain sing only two songs in the game, which of couse incuded <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXO3OMGKPpw" target="_blank">&#8220;<em>Smells Like Teen Spirit</em>&#8220;</a>.  But Cobain&#8217;s character in the game is an unlockable character.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/courtney5.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Cobain Ala Activision</p>
<p>For all you non gamers out there, an unlockable character means the gamer can make the image do other things. Like sing other performer&#8217;s songs.</p>
<p>So Love and former Nirvana band mates, David Grohl and Krist Novoselic, were not too tickled when they found out that Cobain is singing songs by Jon Bon Jovi and Bush in the game. (the band Bush that is, not Dubya, although that would be a riot)</p>
<p>Ex Nirvana band members were quoted about their dismay:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;While we were aware of Kurt&#8217;s image being used with two Nirvana songs, we didn&#8217;t know players have the ability to unlock the character,&#8221; they said.<br />
&#8220;This feature allows the character to be used with any kind of song the layer wants. We urge Activision to do the right thing in &#8216;re-locking&#8217; Kurt&#8217;s character so that this won&#8217;t continue in the future.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Courtney called the avatar &#8220;vile&#8221; and &#8220;necrophilic&#8221; and Twittered:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8221; This Guitar Hero shit is breach of contract. I think Kurt would despise this game alone let alone this avatar.. We are going to sue the shit out of Activison&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>When it comes to vile and necrophilic. Ms Love takes the cake.<br />
We all know how vile she can be. And someone would have to be into necrophilia to be attracted to her these days.</p>
<p>As of late, Love has been looking mighty bad. The recent photo below, shows her beyond scrawny and way up there on the &#8220;Ewwww&#8221; scale.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/court.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Love Looking Like Death Warmed Over</p>
<p> <br />
I think it&#8217;s pretty cool that Activision agreed to include Cobain in their game at all. Love and ex band members should be thankful that Activision is keeping his memory and Nirvana&#8217;s music alive.</p>
<p>The ex band members are asking Activision to come up with a patch, so Cobain&#8217;s character stays locked. Fair enough, but a computer geek friend told me it can&#8217;t be done once the game is out. Don&#8217;t know if this is totally correct.</p>
<p>Love has her lawyer, Keith A. Finch on the case and he seems to think she indeed has a case.</p>
<blockquote><p>Finch said,<br />
&#8220;Activision was not given an unbridled right to use Kurt Cobain&#8217;s name and likeness. As for Cobain, his journals suggest that he&#8217;d be less than pleased about a game that shows him belting out &#8220;You Give Love A Bad Name&#8221;.<br />
Writing about Bon Jovi in the late 1980&#8217;s, he issued a one word review: Evil.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Well, I am not a fan of Bon Jovi myself, but I think the word <em>evil</em> to describe them is a bit silly and over the top. I am sure if Cobain was still alive today, I think his opinion would have matured a bit.</p>
<p>Besides, Nirvana was nothing to write home about. Nirvana themselves weren&#8217;t some ultra fabulous band. They were nothing more than a 90&#8217;s garage grunge band that literally &#8220;<em>stepped in it&#8221;</em>. And don&#8217;t even get me started on Love&#8217;s band <em>&#8220;Hole&#8221;.</em></p>
<p>But hey, that&#8217;s my taste. Obviously if Nirvana sold over twenty-five million albums in the US, and over fifty million worldwide, they were very much admired.</p>
<p>But why some people continue to think that Cobain was some sort of iconic rock God is beyond me. He was a junkie who had a very short career, a raspy nothing voice and he had an average band. He met Love in 1990, they got married in 1992, and Cobain shot himself in 1994. (supposed self inflicted gun shot wound)<br />
Many people blame Love for Cobain&#8217;s untimely demise. I guess we will never actually know the truth.</p>
<p>If you are driving around Aberdeen, Washington, you will see a sign which reads, &#8220;<em>Welcome To Aberdeen Come As You Are&#8221;</em>, which was purchased by the Kurt Cobain Memorial Committee back in 2004 as a tribute to Cobain. If you are not famaliar with Nirvana&#8217;s music&#8230; &#8220;<em>Come As You Are</em>&#8221; is of course one of their songs.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s also not forget that Love and Cobain had a daughter, Francis Bean. I am sure her life has been far from enchanted due to her father&#8217;s death and her whacked out mother. </p>
<p>So back to the lawsuit&#8230;<br />
Ms. Love is not a stranger to lawsuits by any means. That is, people suing HER of course.</p>
<p>She was recently sued this past May by <em>American Express</em> for not paying $350,000 in charges. (gee I thought my card was bad)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/story/love-sued-over-debt_1104737" target="_blank">Contactmusic.com </a>wrote:</p>
<blockquote><p>COURTNEY LOVE is facing a legal battle with American Express over the credit card company&#8217;s claims she has racked up more than $350,000 (£233,000) in unpaid charges.<br />
The firm filed suit against Love in the U.S. District Court on Wednesday (27May09), demanding the rocker pay off the staggering debt on her Gold card.</p>
<p>The former Hole frontwoman had her plastic privileges suspended after she &#8220;failed and refused&#8221; to clear the balance, according to the lawsuit.<br />
Love has been continuously struggling with her finances in recent years &#8211; it emerged in April (09) she had hired a team of private investigators to reclaim the millions of dollars she alleged were stolen from her late husband Kurt Cobain&#8217;s estate.<br />
And just last year (08), Love was sued for $1 million (£667,000) by London &amp; Co., an accounting firm which charged the star had failed to pay them profits from the sale of Cobain&#8217;s share of the Nirvana publishing catalogue.<br />
A spokesperson for Love was unavailable for comment as WENN went to press.</p></blockquote>
<p> <br />
Well, isn&#8217;t that interesting? She has two huge companies suing her.<br />
Doesn&#8217;t stop there&#8230;<br />
She also is being sued by her former body guard for $60,000.</p>
<p>TMZ wrote:</p>
<blockquote><p>It costs a lot of money to keep the world safe from <strong>Courtney Love </strong>&#8211; her former bodyguards say she stiffed them out of $60,000 this year.</p>
<p><strong>Screen International Security Services</strong> filed a lawsuit today in L.A. County Superior Court, claiming they provided &#8220;security services, in connection with the protection of Love, her family members, and her property&#8221; between April and August of this year.</p>
<p>SISS says Love never paid a penny for services rendered &#8212; totaling $58,222.50 &#8212; and are suing for the full amount plus interest.</p>
<p>Love&#8217;s attorney just sent us the following statement:</p>
<p>&#8220;<span>This lawsuit should be placed in the Wikipedia page next to chutzpah. It has no merit and is based on a private security company&#8217;s attempt to <span style="color: #29a256">fleece</span> a celebrity</span>.</p>
<p><em>SISS is claiming it is owed money for providing around the clock security for Ms. Cobain and her daughter at the St. Ives home for a period of time she and her daughter were NOT living at that home but were living at the Chateau Marmont. SISS has no written agreement with Ms Cobain to support their claim and on its face it is ludicrous.</em>&#8221;</p>
<p>SISS was paid a substantial sum for the &#8220;service&#8221; it provided while they were living at that home. Despite knowing that Ms. Cobain and her daughter had moved out of the home they continued to provide security to an empty home by having someone sit in a car all day eating a ham sandwich while the Cobains were residing miles away!!!</p></blockquote>
<p>AND her <em>snarkiness</em> doesn&#8217;t end there.<br />
In 2007, Love was also quoted as saying,</p>
<blockquote><p> “I’m going to have a Christie’s auction,” to hock the bulk of Cobain’s belongings with a portion going to charity.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>I don&#8217;t know if this auction ever took place, I couldn&#8217;t find anything else about it.&#8221;</p>
<p>So do you think Love is really upset over this whole Guitar Hero thang? Or is she looking for some quick cash in all the wrong places? (see what I did there?)</p>
<p>Her lawsuit with Activision is starting to &#8220;<em>smell like &#8221;<strong>GLEAN</strong>&#8221; spirit</em> to me&#8221;. *snicker*</p>
<p>Seems to me, that she has been living off Kurt&#8217;s fame and money for years, and doesn&#8217;t plan on stopping.<br />
The lyrics from her song, <em>&#8220;Celebrity</em>&#8221; say it all.<br />
&#8220;<em>Use Once and Destroy</em>&#8220;.</p>
<p>Now don&#8217;t get me wrong. I am all for performers getting credit where credit is due. And if there is a huge copyright issue, then it should be dealt with.</p>
<p>I think Cobain being included in Guitar Hero 5 was a compliment and an honor to both Cobain and the remaining members of Nirvana. And now Cobain will be forever immortalized in the gaming world. If gamers want to be more respectful<em>, </em>I guess they can always choose for Cobain to only sing the two songs by Nirvana. Easy solution. Those who don&#8217;t care, will have him wailing Bon Jovi.</p>
<p>As far as Courtney Love? <strong> <br />
</strong>What about your daughter Francis Bean Courtney? <br />
Doesn&#8217;t she deserve better?<br />
Clean up your act and grow up woman.<br />
And for God&#8217;s sakes, wash your hands and clean those damn fingernails!</p>

Love&#8217;s Fingernails Looks Like She Clawed Her Way Out Of A &#8220;Hole&#8221;</p>

<p>No I am not talking about his bathroom habits or Britney.</p>
<p>It looks like K-Fed is a real dirty bird and may end up as a jail bird if he doesn&#8217;t pay up!</p>
<p>TMZ posted pictures on their website which revealed the total mess and supposed damage that K-Fed left behind when he moved out of his rental property in Tarzana Ca. Gee K-Fed, just because you lived in Tarzana, didn&#8217;t mean you had to live like Tarzan. *snicker*<br />
 <br />
So I guess it is a case of white trash, leaving trash. No surprise there.</p>
<p>Although <em>TMZ</em> may have exaggerated things a bit, the place did look pretty darn unsavory. Most of the pictures they posted were kind of boring though. *Yawn*<br />
But we included the two pictures that made K-Fed look like a total slob.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/fed5.jpg" alt="" /><br />

Laundry Day At The Federlines?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.tmz.com/tag/Kevin+Federline/" target="_blank">Other pictures</a> from TMZ were almost laughable, like a few tiles missing here and there, or paint wear on the cabinets with a few knobs missing.</p>
<p>There was one picture of an outdoor lamp that looks like there was a bird&#8217;s nest behind it. Not sure where they were going with that one. Did they think K-Fed built the nest? Oh that&#8217;s right, he is a dirty bird. *snicker*</p>
<p>Of course the mini fridge was pretty disgusting and there was a myriad of ciggy butts all over the property and a busted lamp and some chips in assorted things here and there.</p>
<p>So I guess collectively it must have looked pretty darn bad to the owners. So bad, that the owners are asking for over $100,000.00 in payback for repairs and back rent. Yup! K-Fed skipped out on SIX MONTHS rent. Whoopsy!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.popeater.com/2009/10/07/federline-accused-of-trashing-rental-home/" target="_blank">Popeater </a>wrote:</p>
<blockquote><p>One-time rapper Kevin Federline, aka &#8220;K-Fed,&#8221; is being asked to pay over $100,000 in unpaid rent and damages for a ransacked home, TMZ reports.</p>
<p>Aren&#8217;t the parents supposed to clean up after the kids? One-time rapper Kevin Federline, aka &#8220;K-Fed,&#8221; is being asked to pay over $100,000 in unpaid rent and damages for a ransacked home, TMZ reports.</p>
<p>K-Fed has been accused of trashing a Tarzana, California home where he lived until this past May. The owners also claim Federline disappeared unexpectedly without paying his last 6 months of rent.</p>
<p>The owners are demanding $110,661 in damages and unpaid accommodation. The list of what has been wrecked is as bizarre as it is exhaustive. Via TMZ:</p>
<p>- Cigarette butts and empty beer bottles filling the gutters,<br />
- A broken beer dispenser on the barbecue island,<br />
- Cracked light covers,<br />
- Mangled light posts,<br />
- Cracked tiles,<br />
- Drawings on the walls,<br />
- Dead plants and trees due to failure to upkeep,<br />
- Unapproved conversion of a room into a studio,<br />
- Malfunctioning dishwasher with broken baskets,<br />
- Smoke detectors that have been dismantled,<br />
- Oil damage on the front driveway,<br />
- Unapproved tinting of master bathroom windows,<br />
- Missing garage door opener,<br />
and the pièce de résistance<br />
- <strong>Permanent spit marks on the exterior paint</strong>! No camels were reported on site.</p>
<p>The letter threatens to take K-Fed to court if he refuses to pay.</p>
<p>Federline, 31, is a dancer, rapper, fashion model and, ahem, actor. He was married to pop princess Britney Spears for two years before their highly-publicized divorce. They were also involved in an ongoing custody battle over sons Sean Preston and Jayden James Federline. There is no word about how clean the boys&#8217; rooms are.</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;Permanent spit marks&#8221; Huh? Maybe from chewing tobacco? Does K-Fed or his buddies partake in a little pinch between the cheek and gums? (that&#8217;s chewing tobacco for all you non-rednecks) if not, does spit actually stain paint? Ewww!</p>
<p>And lately, K-Fed has not exactly been the picture of health either, he is really packing on the pounds as you can clearly see.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/fed7.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>I have read rumors that he was supposed to be on the upcoming <em>VH1 Celebrity Fit Club Season 7</em>, but then he denied those rumors.</p>
<p>But guess what? Celebrity Fit Club has just <a href="http://blog.vh1.com/2009-09-22/exes-kevin-federline-and-shar-jackson-head-fit-club-7-cast/" target="_blank">confirmed it</a>.</p>
<p>Can it be that K-Fed is packing on the pounds on purpose so he can have a paying gig? It certainly looks that way to me. It seems awfully ironic that a person who has always looked very svelte, suddenly packs on the pounds and then is going to be on Celebrity Fit Club. Hmmm&#8230; I smell a rat.</p>
<p>Of course this is all speculation on my part. But I wouldn&#8217;t put it past Sean and Jayden&#8217;s baby daddy to supersize himself for the cash. Yes of course I know that the pictures prove he is portly now, but did he graze on food <em>just</em> so he can get on the show?</p>
<p>And if so&#8230; it further proves that reality TV has little reality.</p>
<p>He will also be appearing with his <em>other </em>ex, Shar Jackson as well as perpetual loser and Whitney Houston&#8217;s ex,Bobby Brown.</p>
<p>Egad, &#8220;Celebrity Fit Club&#8221; will do anything for ratings. Perhaps they can bring back Dustin Diamond (I hate Screech) with K-Fed and they can duke it out in the ring together. Now your talking ratings! I don&#8217;t know who I would root for. It&#8217;s  a toss up, but a double KO would be totally <strong>SWEET</strong>!</p>
<p>But seriously&#8230;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s time to grow up KEVIN. You&#8217;re over thirty, your career *cough* is toast, and your living like a slob. Your parenting skills have become pretty questionable now, (well, I should say have worsen) since you are not paying your bills and you turned a rental property into a total sh*t hole in your wake. Not cool when there are kids involved.</p>
<p>So to K-Fed&#8230; time to nut up or shut up.<br />

<p>Ok, first off&#8230;<br />
Let me get this out of my system.</p>
<p>HA HA HA HA HA HA&#8230;ohhhhh&#8230;. HA HA HA HA HA!<br />
*Wipes Eyes*<br />
Sigh&#8230; Ok I&#8217;m better now.</p>
<p>Now I am not going to hold back, so if you are a Gosselin lover, (are there any left?) then you have been warned! </p>
<p>Kate Gosselin has recently stated that she would work at McDonald&#8217;s if she had to. Bitch PA-LEASE!</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/kategos.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Hurry Kate! Your Turn To Switch On The Fryolator!</p>
<p>How can she have the audacity to say that she would work at McDonald&#8217;s? Now let me get this straight Kate, when you are busy doling out fries and burgers, who will be home taking care of your kids, dumb ass?</p>
<p>I caught<em> TMZ </em>on TV last night and they said it was going on day TWO that the nanny has picked up your kids at their school bus stop for crying out loud. Is anyone buying this crap? Does she think she can hire nannies to care for her kids while she is out slinging hash? Give me a break!</p>
<p>Or is this going to be her next reality show? &#8220;<em>Kate Plus Ate</em>&#8221; *snicker*</p>
<p>Everyone knows darn well that Ms. Gosselin wouldn&#8217;t be caught dead working at a McDonald&#8217;s. I am sure she thinks that working at McDonald&#8217;s would be a total subservient job. Can you imagine working with her? McDonald&#8217;s my ass!</p>
<p>But Oh dear!<br />
What is Kate to do now that Jon no longer wants to do the show any more? It&#8217;s YOUR fault that you pissed away all your money, or you let Jon piss away all of the money. Who ever is to blame, it doesn&#8217;t really matter now, does it? The fact of the matter is, over two hundred THOUSAND dollars is now gone. What about your EIGHT children?</p>
<p>Looks like the Gosselins should have thought this through a LONG ago. But no, they were too busy getting<em> &#8220;famous&#8221;</em>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.usmagazine.com/celebritynews/news/kate-gosselin-id-work-at-mcdonalds-to-support-kids-2009510" target="_blank">US Magazine</a> reported:</p>
<blockquote><p>Could Kate Gosselin soon be asking if you want fries with that?</p>
<p>The mom of eight, 34, called into The View Monday to say she&#8217;d take a job at McDonald&#8217;s to support her kids if it came down to it. (A few hours earlier, she appeared on the Today show.)</p>
<p>Finding alternate work may be necessary now that Jon has halted production on her TLC reality show and left her with just $1,346 (down from $231,000) in a shared bank account, she said.</p>
<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re on temporary holding right now. A lot of this stuff is out of my control,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I can tell you that my kids are upset that it&#8217;s on hold, that the opportunities that they did have. For example, they&#8217;re supposed to be in New York. We were supposed to come up this weekend and see the Statue of Liberty and they don&#8217;t understand why we can&#8217;t do that now. So for myself and the kids, I&#8217;m hoping it goes on for the opportunities as well as, obviously, the financial. I mean, essentially, it&#8217;s my job, and I&#8217;m hoping to continue working.&#8221;</p>
<p>And if it doesn&#8217;t?</p>
<p>&#8220;I do know that no matter what, I know within myself that if I have to work at McDonald&#8217;s, I will do what it takes to provide for my kids, period,&#8221; she said.<br />
Former co-host Lisa Ling, who was guest hosting the show Monday, challenged Kate&#8217;s desire to keep her kids on TV as they grapple with their parents&#8217; split.</p>
<p>&#8220;My parents got a divorce. I can&#8217;t even imagine any of it being on television,&#8221; Ling said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t see what the problem is with stopping the show or taking the kids off the show for a period of time until things can get resolved&#8230;There have got to be other ways to make money than putting your kids on television.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Your kids can&#8217;t go to the Statue of Liberty now Kate? Wahhhhhh. Maybe you should have thought of that before you two blew over $200 grand. </p>
<p>But wait, hold on here&#8230;you got a free tummy tuck, but nobody would pay your way for Lady Liberty? What&#8217;s the matter Kate? Not networking enough? You didn&#8217;t tell the paps or the rags that you wanted to go to NY with your little money makers?</p>
<p>I am sure the <em>National Enquirer</em> would have paid you pretty well for that photo op! </p>
<p>I can see the headlines of the Enquirer now..</p>
<p>&#8220;<em>Kate Gosselin Begs For Spare Change Outside The Statue Of Liberty So She Can Afford To Send Her Kids To The Top!&#8221;</em> *snicker*</p>
<p>Or is it that your popularity is dwindling and people see you and Jon for the total idiots you are?  Perhaps you two are no longer a hot commodity any more? *crosses fingers*</p>
<p>Sorry Kate, I do not have one smidgen of sympathy for you. Or you either Jon. You whored out your kids for cash and fame, and you were too big for your own britches. You acted like a total beeyotch and now you want everyone to feel sorry for you. You made money off your books, appearances and that horrible show, and now it&#8217;s all gone. Tsk Tsk.</p>
<p>I only feel sorry for your kids. You forced them into appearing on TV and did not care about their emotional well being. They have total idiots for parents who put themselves first and made horrendously BAD choices.</p>
<p>Taking those kids off the show is the best thing you can do for them right now. Let them be kids and have a normal life if that is at all possible. And Maddy can stand to use some serious anger management courses already.</p>
<p>But I am sure we have not seen the last of your kids. You will be pushing your kids into TV commercials or acting lessons so you can continue to live off them. Have to keep that dough flowing in! Right?</p>
<p>So Kate&#8230;and this goes for you too Jon, if you are hurting for cash (I find that hard to believe) you both are getting what you deserve.<br />
I guess Maddy can always sue you two when she gets older. *snicker*</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a damn shame that your poor kids got caught up in the middle of your train wreck.</p>

<p>Wow!  Just when I thought I was all done hearing about what a buffoon Bush is, and being tickled silly that this idiot is no longer our President, I hear that he snubbed J.K. Rowling, author of all the Harry Potter books because and get this&#8230; <strong>the books encouraged WITCHRAFT!</strong></p>
<p>OMG!! Are you freakin&#8217; kidding me?<br />
Where was Bush&#8217;s head at? <a href="http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/salem/ASAL_CH.HTM" target="_blank">The Salem Witch Trials of 1692?</a></p>
<p>Gee, too bad stoning and hanging for suspicion of &#8220;witchcraft&#8221; was outlawed, hey Dubya?<br />
I guess there&#8217;s always water boarding&#8230; oh wait, that&#8217;s right your veto on outlawing waterboarding thankfully failed. Sorry you out of luck Dubya!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hey Dubya&#8230;. by the way&#8230;<br />
Just how on earth does one encourage witchcraft from a children&#8217;s book, you dumb ass?<br />
They weren&#8217;t written by Aliester Crowley for crying out loud!</p>
<p>Eonline wrote:</p>
<blockquote><p>Noted Muggle/compassionate conservative George W. Bush was apparently a devout Harry Potter hater.</p>
<p>The former commander in chief wasn&#8217;t about to honor J.K. Rowling, the talent behind the book series, with the Presidential Medal of Freedom&#8230;and for quite the logical reason.</p>
<p>&#8220;People in the White House…actually object[ed] to giving the author J.K. Rowling a presidential medal because the Harry Potter books encouraged witchcraft,&#8221; writes former Bush speechwriter Matt Latimer in his book, Speech-less: Tales of a White House Survivor.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s right. Good ol&#8217; Dubya and his administration dissed the mega-selling British author, refusing to let her join the ranks of James A. Michener, Harper Lee and John Steinbeck. (Guess he figured the Secret Service could handle any Avada Kedavra curse flung his way.)</p>
<p>Bush distributed 81 medals during his time in office, mostly to war-related allies.</p></blockquote>
<p>The medals went to mostly war-realted allies? Gee, why am I not surprised?</p>
<p>Now I am not outraged that this author didn&#8217;t receive a medal.<br />
I am outraged over the REASON why she didn&#8217;t receive a medal.</p>
<p>Long winded rant alert!<br />
Deep breath&#8230;..<br />
If any of you right wingers out there need proof that Bush is an idiotic, over conservative, totally incompetent FOOL that was jointly responsible along with his bunch of deluded administrators for putting this country in a total cluster f*ck, (and I am being kind) then here&#8217;s some further proof of the total idiocy that enveloped the White House!</p>
<p>And in the sheer brilliance of George W. Bush &#8230;<br />
Only one of many of his pearls of wisdom&#8230; and I quote:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, And so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Looks like Tawny Kitaen just can&#8217;t stay out of trouble.</p>
<p>Tawny aka Julie &#8220;Tawny&#8221; Kitaen starred in <em>Bachelor Party</em> with Tom Hanks back in 1984. She was also in a movie that she is probably not too proud of called <em>The Perils of Gwendoline in the Land of the Yik-Yak</em>  aka <em>Gwendoline </em>in 1985 and then a horror flick, <em>Witchboard</em> in 1986.<br />
Gwendoline was about:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8221; a 1985 erotic adventure based on a French comic strip. Stowing away on a China-bound freighter to search for her long-lost father, virginal Gwendoline (Kitaen) ends up in the clutches of randy sailors &#8212; till a daring adventurer (Brent Huff) saves her. Heading upriver to find Gwen&#8217;s dad, they soon crosses paths with the female warriors of the Yik Yak tribe.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Wow! How she was able to get any work after that movie is pretty amazing. </p>
<p>Tawny is <em>most</em> famous for her romp<em> </em>atop the hood of a jag in a video for <em>Whitesnake.</em> For all you youngins&#8217; out there&#8230; Whitesnake was a big hair rock band back in the 1980&#8217;s.</p>
<p>The video she starred in was for their song &#8220;<em>Here I Go Again</em>&#8221; sung by her ex HUSBAND, lead singer. David Coverdale. (ick&#8230; sorry, he always grossed me out)<br />
For a blast from the past, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKTiwCez6Zs&amp;feature=PlayList&amp;p=7FC86FB1E7EC8EBA&amp;index=0" target="_blank">click here</a> to watch a fuzzy version of her <em>frisky</em>video that guys are stil talking about today.</p>
<p>Her marriage to Coverdale only lasted a few years. And six years later in 1997, she married St. Louis Cardinals pitcher, Chuck Finley. They had two children Wynter and Raine.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/ta.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Earlier Picture Of Much Happier Times</p>
<p>But trouble came knocking again when Tawny was arrested for beating Finely with one of her stiletto heels while he was driving and she was on the passenger seat.  MEOW!<br />
Yeah, I know all the guys out there are probably thinking that sounds crazy sexy and hot. But sorry guys, it&#8217;s just crazy. And that little<em> tiff</em> could have killed the both of them.</p>
<p>Needless to say, three days later and not surprisingly, Finely filed for a divorce, which ended their five year marriage. And it&#8217;s also when the custody battle started for their kids.</p>
<p>Tawny continued her spiral down with continuing her addiction to drugs and alcohol. She starred in the sixth edition of <em>Surreal Life</em> and I remember watching that show. She really came off as quite the whack job. It was evident that she was high as a kite on that show. (well to me anyways)</p>
<p>She continued her reality show career on a stint with <em>Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew</em>. I also watched this show.</p>
<p><img src="http://glosslip.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/tap.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Tawny with Dr. Drew</p>
<p>She was totally different on this show compared to her behavior on the Surreal Life. I thought she was doing pretty good, by the end of the show and she also &#8220;graduated&#8221;. (of course we all know to take these shows with a grain of salt and that the reality part of these shows is pretty slim)</p>
<p>On <a href="http://www.vh1.com/shows/celebrity_rehab_with_dr_drew/season_2/episode.jhtml?episodeID=144591" target="_blank">VH1&#8217;s Celebrity Rehab website</a> , it read:</p>
<blockquote><p> Tawny <em>thanked fellow rehabbers for giving her hope, and friendship, something she really hasn&#8217;t had in the past.<br />
</em></p></blockquote>
<p>I wonder what ex husband Finely thought about that statement?</p>
<p>Tawny then went on to an outpatient program in Newport Beach, so that she can be close to her family. Sure glad that she didn&#8217;t pick to go Scientology&#8217;s phony Narconon program and I hope she never does. Why am I mentioning Scientology? Because Scientology pounced on another rehabber from the show, Jeff Conoway when he left the show early.</p>
<p>Thanks to fellow <em>Grease </em>star, John Travolta. Travolta gave Conoway a whole library of Scientology books and the service of a Scientology &#8221;auditor&#8221; who visited Conoway almost every day. Out of the pan and into the fire I say. Shame on Travolta for getting Conoway mixed up in the cult. Just utterly sickening.</p>
<p>Even though Conoway may have been tricked into thinking that Scientology actually helped him kick his addiction, their success rate for helping drug addiction through their Purification Rundown is actually like 6%. Not the trumped up numbers they lie about.</p>
<p>I haven&#8217;t heard anything further on Conoway and Scientology. I hope he dumped them like a lead balloon and finds some REAL help and without the cameras rolling this time.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s hope the Scientology vultures keep their mitts off Tawny, as she would be the perfect candidate with her rocky past, her fragile state of mind and her addictions. Which to Scientology&#8230;Tawny would be &#8220;fresh meat&#8221; and prime for the picking.</p>
<p>So what is going on with Tawny now?<br />
Well that brings us up to her latest escapade of getting pulled over for <em>alleged</em>  *snicker* DUI.</p>

<p>Celebrity Rehab alum Tawny Kitaen was taken into custody Saturday afternoon near John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, Calif., on suspicion of driving under the influence.</p>
<p>The 48-year-old former actress/reality star allegedly &#8220;made contact with officers after operating a vehicle while under the influence,&#8221; according to Sgt. Shontel Sherwood of the Newport Beach Police Department.</p>
<p>Kitaen, who has also appeared on VH1&#8217;s The Surreal Life, was busted in 2006 on drug possession charges, after police found 15 grams of cocaine in her San Juan Capistrano apartment.</p>
<p>The Whitesnake music video babe struck a <a href="http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b53966_Tawny_Kitaen_Atoning_in_Rehab.html" target="_blank">plea deal</a> with prosecutors in which they agreed to drop the felony drug charges after she completed a drug treatment program.</p></blockquote>
<p>Geez Tawny!<br />
Two failed marriages, drug addiction, alcohol problems, busted for felony drug possession and two rehab failures. Yikes! Aren&#8217;t you done yet?</p>
<p>So I wasn&#8217;t too surprised when I saw that the <a href="http://www.latimes.com/classified/realestate/printedition/la-hmw-hotpropkitaen3-2009mar03,0,2431738.story" target="_blank">LA Times reported</a> this past March that she put up <a href="http://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/31-Rockingham-Dr_Newport-Beach_CA_92660_1107303632" target="_blank">her house </a>up for sale in Newport Beach with an asking price is $3.45 million. *shakes head*</p>
<p>Egad Tawny!<br />
Get your sh*t together! You have two kids!<br />
You have obviously ignored several GIANT wake up calls.<br />
Save what&#8217;s left of your life and got off that roller coaster before you become a statistic.</p>
<p>If not for you, then do it for your two kids who deserve to have their Mom be there for them.</p>
