    Awesome. And thanks a lot for sucking me in to a long and strange journey through the tenets of Scientology. Here is my favorite quote I found: “There is no such thing as a mental illness. There is no bacteria which produces psychosis…Well, if you knew what he was fighting you wouldn’t feel so sorry for him. He’s back there on the track a few trillion years fighting the Ugbugs. He’s solving a present time problem which hasn’t in actual fact existed for the last many trillenia in most cases, and yet he is taking the actions in present time which solve that problem with the Ugbugs.” Well that clears it up.

    And than I laughed even louder the second time, after I watched Tom Cruise.

    Can someone tell me by the way what help he’s going to give and what ‘it’ is? All the rambling about helping. Maybe he thinks his nice eyes will do the trick of solving all hunger, war and other crap stuff in the world.

    You gave me that five minutes back! I’m so glad I watched Cruise ’cause your clip redeemed it with high-larious laughter.
    No one has ever done this for me before-given me back lost time. Thanks for an amazing gift! You ROCK!

    You are crazy, but you are an imposter. You are not REALLY a SCRAPBOOKER because you did not once mention “caught up.” Any true scrapbooker, fully indoctrinated into the faith would have been all over “caught up.” Nice try, Cruisin’ Cathy.

    OMG – it’s a good thing I went to the bathroom before I watched that clip – about 3 seconds in, I thought . . . “she reminds me of someone . . .” Hilarious – thanks for taking the time to make it. Tom makes me laugh in a scary way. You make me laugh in an up-from-my-toes good kind of laugh. You’ve missed your calling, I think.

    Okay – can’t find your email address and wanted to share this little blog with you — which way do you see the ballerina dancing???

    http://photosmadesimple.blogspot.com/

    If counterclockwise – you’re using the logical part of your brain ; if clockwise – the creative side — I swear she can be going one direction and I glance away and look back and she’s spinning opposite!! Just proof that my brain has totally flipped! A friend and her husband looked at her at the same time and saw her in two different directions. I’m now obsessed with her – and so far — this morning — she’s been clockwise 10 out of 15 times….what do you think?

    Hi Cathy, you are the ray of light in my dark (PMS induced) day. Speaking of PMS,
    I thought you might enjoy this:

    THE HORMONE HOSTAGE

    The hormone hostage knows that there are days in the month when all a man has to do is open his mouth & he takes his life into his own hands! This is a handy guide that should be as common as a driver’s license in the wallet of every husband, boyfriend, co-worker, or significant other!

    Dangerous: What’s for dinner?
    Safer: Can I help you with dinner?
    Safest: Where would you like to go for dinner?
    Ultra safe: Here, have some wine.

    Dangerous: Are you wearing that?
    Safer: Wow, you sure look good in brown!
    Safest: Wow! Look at you!
    Ultra safe: Here, have some wine.

    Dangerous: What are you so worked up about?
    Safer: Could we be overreacting?
    Safest: Here’s my paycheck.
    Ultra safe: Here, have some wine.

    Dangerous: Should you be eating that?
    Safer: You know, there are a lot of apples left.
    Safest: Can I get you a piece of chocolate with that?
    Ultra safe: Here, have some wine.

    Dangerous: What did you do all day?
    Safer: I hope you didn’t over-do it today.
    Safest: I’ve always loved you in that robe!
    Ultra safe: Here, have some more wine.

    13 THINGS PMS STANDS FOR:

    1. Pass My Shotgun
    2. Psychotic Mood Swing
    3. Perpetual Munching Spree
    4. Puffy Mid-Section
    5. People Make Me Sick
    6. Provide Me with Sweets
    7. Pardon My Sobbing
    8. Pimples May Surface
    9. Pass My Sweats
    10. Pissy Mood Syndrome
    11. Poor Men Suck
    12. Pack My Stuff
    13. Potential Murder Suspect

    *huge sigh of relief* okay, so I live under a rock (just a little one) in the UK and didn’t get to see the TC video, just heard a bit about it, so when I just watched this I had no idea of the connection and truly thought you had lost the plot BIG TIME. Then I read the comments, phew! You nutter!

    I just wanted to say I think your video was more effective than Tom’s, and I think I know why – you’re able to layer your outfits better. We know you invented layering – Tom clearly chose poorly with the turtleneck.

I’m up at work and the connection is really slow; like watching a badly dubbed kung fu or godzilla movie. Anyway, the local radio station I listened to (i live in the DFW, Texas area – Mansfield) has your indoctrination video on their website. Here is the link: http://70.87.0.133/index.html
