new obsession- scientologists- very scarey

Well it started with looking up Giovanni Ribisi an actor I saw in a movie, then saw his brother-in-law was Beck. How interesting. So reading further found out that the Ribisi's and Beck are all second generation scientologists. Beck had denied his Scientology connections until 2005, probably knowing it may have hurt his career. http://www.lermanet.com/beck/ So reading more found some very scarey facts about scientology.

Time published an in depth article called The Thriving Cult of Greed and Power

One of the things I've learned reading about Scientology is apparantly scientology claims to "cure" homosexuality. One of their success stories is John Travolta, although this recent photo of him kissing a guy http://www.idontlikeyouinthatway.com/pictures/20060831/travolta%20gay/travolta.html They also get members to "audit" their lives and tell everything they've done they record this and use as blackmail to keep members in scientology. Also found articles on how children of scientologists are treated, very sad in the Travolta family because son is autistic which is seen as a sign of weakness and he has not received the help he needs.

I feel so sad for the folks that are taken in by this cult and especially the children who have no say in their involvment.

winged monkey

My mom originally collected the entire set of madam alexander Wizard of Oz dolls for me from Mc Donalds. My family has never collected toys or any fastfood objects but she just though they were so cute and I agreed! They are adorable. I have them in my cube and my friend at work told me she was going to collect them now because they are back. I looked at the list of dolls and saw they now have the winged monkey...I wante it bad and today she surprised me with a happy meal complete with winged monkey. Dang those monkeys scared me to death when I was a kid, my little doll is so cute.
