Some staff (such as myself) are worth more to the cult dead than alive.

In the S.O. staff members ARE pets.
They are the owned property of one David Miscaviage.
He alone can have them put down or wear Captains bars. He has done both. My only regret with the S.O. was that I never had the honor of saluting Dm’s dogs. ( I have saluted DM himself). Nowadays it is more of an honor to salute his dogs than himself.
Heil Miscaviage!

I understood why and how this man could feel devastated by the death of his cat.

My surprise was that he would come to an NA meeting and essentially monopolize meeting talking about something that was completely O/T for those kinds of meetings.

But I suppose considering how many O/T posts I make in this blog, perhaps I shouldn’t have been surprised at all.

I never even said how great this edition of the blog was. It really was one of RB’s most hilarious efforts.

LOL LOL LOL So true. They are astral walking spirit headed believers who cannot pay their rent or change a tire on a car.

Too bad Hubbard didn’t learn to practice ‘more silence’ back about 1940.

Hilarious is the only word I can think of in response to this. Thanks, Mary!

Skyler we always had dogs. They become part of the family. They have emotions and personality. They never betray and give you a lot of love and are part of the group. Of course when they die one has a loss. Currently whe have a Japanese Spitz that can really influence everybody’s mood positively every time.

That may be the best one I’ve ever read!

for someone who was apparently a stickler for following the rules he laid down he is a tad late.

I would have enjoyed hearing that story about the man and his cat.

What is the pet situation in the cult? The same as everywhere else? The fact that you were surprised by the guy’s attachment to his cat makes me think you don’t know many people with pets?
