Because I am still traveling, currently in Los Angeles for a series of depositions in the Garcia case, I have not assembled a Thursday Funnies this week.
Tony Ortega is doing his usual masterful job of keeping everyone updated on the HBO Documentary news. There is still plenty to keep everyone entertained.
I will be back home on the weekend to try and get things back to normal.
Steph says
Thanks, Mike. Kick Ass in LA ! We know you will.
Michael Mallen says
Dave does West Side Story:
I feel shitty, oh so shitty
I feel shitty and ready to fight
And I pity any fool who fucks with me tonight
I’m so charming as I’m harming
It’s alarming the harming I feel
And so witty that I’m everybody’s true ideal
See that clueless wog in my rear view mirror
Who can that disgusting clown be
Such a silly face, such a big disgrace
Such a stupid smile, such redundancy!
I feel cunning and reactive
Feel like crapping on everyone’s joy
For I’m feared with the universe as my toy
I feel shitty, oh so shitty
I feel shitty and ready to fight
And I pity any fool who fucks with me tonight
Hallie Jane says
Good one Michael, LOL!
Michael Mallen says
Thanks Hallie Jane.
SILVIA says
No problem, the Garcia case deserves attention. From my viewpoint I don’t consider your blog as “entertainment’, is more like facts of the real scene of the church being exposed and then an exchange of ideas amongst all bloggers.
Many have thank you for this and I do so again too.
Don_M says
Thanks for helping so many Mike.
gayle says
Very proud of you Mike. Safe travels.
Michael Mallen says
Hey Mike, say hello to Mike Ellis for me – he handled my… Oh, never mind. š
zana says
Sending you good and inspired energy for your depositions today. Thank you again for what you are doing for all of us.
Pericles says
Proud that you are making Waves for Truth. What you represent in those depositions will penetrate their 6″ armor plate steel. Thank you for what you do!
KFrancis says
Didnāt Dave say that Power is derived from getting people to listen to you?
If thatās the case then it looks like Mike, Marty, Mark Headly, Paul Haggis, and HBO are the new breed moving into Power.
Power is flowing away from David Miscavige-Is anyone but a small handful really listening to him?
Power is flowing away from Tom Cruise-Sadly, because he allowed himself to become Miscavige road-kill.
Power is flowing away from The Office of āSpecial AffairsāāIs anyone really afraid of them anymore?
KFrancis says
And speaking of OSA, when does the crew that is left begin to turn on one another?
After all, the most important āspecial affairā that they were engaged in was protecting David Miscavige and his church. Well given that both are going to pieces then it should be fair to ask, āWho wasnāt doing their job?ā
OSA crew…… the best thing anyone of you can do now is to grab all the documents and skeletons you can carry out the door and run !!! Which one of you is going to be first to save yourself? Donāt be the stupid one left holding the bag hunkered down in the bunker with Dave.
Cooper Kessel says
Now that is some real sound advice KF. Now that the roof is caving in we should see some serious scrambling for the exits.
Yo Tom and John,
WTF are you guys gonna do???????
Michael Mallen says
“We’re waiting for the standard handling from Dave. In the meantime, we’re all heading to an A-list party to remain relevant.”
Michael Mallen says
Guess what, he never really had any power.
Conan says
You rock Mike!
Aquamarine says
Yeah, MIke, if you’re taking any nite flights, hope you’ve got your video camera prepped for an Attack Of The Undead. Word now is they go abroad when the moon rises, and only the blood of Bitter Defrocked Apostates can satiate them..
Tony DePhillips says
Have fun. š

Check this out y’all. Some inside skinny on some shit blowing up at the FLB and also some tips to forward to all your still-in, under-the-radar friends.
There’s some big ass confusion blowing up in HCO/OSA FLB.
It started when some people were pulled into HCO because they had posted on some blogs, and it was found (allegedly) that someone had actually posted AS these people on the blogs. At least that’s how the story goes.
These people then went running to their friends saying that someone had posted as them online. So then, once it was “known” in the field that someone was posting as other people on the blogs, the doors opened to another way to scam the MAA.
The scam goes like this:
–person makes some comments on some blogs (Mike’s, etc.) using their own name. The scam works even when posting under a fake name.
–person uses IP address scrambler so that there is no hard evidence where the blog comment is coming from.
–if the person posted under their real name, they put stuff in the comment that obviously reinforces that this is the person it’s supposed to be.
–if the person posts under a fake name, the say some stuff in the comment that pretty obviously reveals the real identify.
–OSA reports to HCO that this person is commenting on blogs, and MAA pulls person in.
–person uses the defense “Do you think I would be so stupid as to post on the blogs under my real name?” Or “Do you think if I was posting anonymously I would be so stupid as to disclose my identity in the comment itself”
–person does a very good job convincing the MAA (because let’s be real, the Child-MAAs are mental midgets) that they absolutely did not post on any blogs and are 100% with the program.
–from that point on it is then “known” that someone must be posting online as that person. The MAA believes this because he “knows” this has happened before…and therefore that person now has a FREE PASS to keep posting on line. They can always tell the MAA, “We’ve already covered this, you know it’s not me!”
So basically what’s happening now is that the Church has NO FREAKIN’ CLUE whether these people who are posting on the blogs are really posting or not. Some actually aren’t. And many others are taking advantage of this to establish an ALL-CLEAR for themselves.
So this is the new hat write-up to send to all your UNDER THE RADAR friends. They can take advantage of this confusion that is taking place in HCO/OSA.
When confronted by HCO/OSA they should just say “I DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT, SOMEONE MUST BE MESSING WITH ME BY POSTING AS ME” and the MAAs will screw themselves silly trying to figure out if it’s true or not.
TrevAnon says
LOL and thanks!

Cooper Kessel says
Wait till Coop Kessel finds out all the shit I have been posting in his name. And when OAS finds out that they busted him for stuff he didn’t do …………. then what?
OSA short answer: WTFC (who the fuck cares) he’s an asshole anyway and besides, he’s cheap!
KFrancis says
This is really interesting because it leaves the MAAās/Church in a maddening position with their parishioners.
Lying/Not Lyingā¦ā¦.Must Punish/Canāt Punishā¦…Must Declare/Canāt Declareā¦..Act/ Canāt Actā¦..Know/Donāt Know. Take your pick but anyone of these leaves the church with a frustrating problem and freezes any action.
Michael Mallen says
Young MAA: Mr. Miscavige, what do you want us to do?
COB: You CICSMF, do I have to come down and RPF you? Handle it!!!
McCarran says
But all they have to do is use that e-meter thingy to decipher if the person is telling the truth. (Yea right).
In all seriousness, the MAA’s must be really busy putting everyone on the cans.
Cooper Kessel says
And hopefully they can still count to three without their heads bobbing back and forth!
Rachel Mackay says
Ooh, this is clever. Finally getting some mass on plausible deniability.
McCarran says
Take care and Godspeed.
Rob C says
Appreciate the update Mike, safe travels, and keep an eye out for those airport trolls!
TrevAnon says
I’m afraid an enormous number of e-mails is waiting for you. š
Hallie Jane says
Thanks Mike. In LA, if you need a home cooked meal or a cozy guest room with kitties, let me know. š
cindy says
I agree with Hallie Jane, Mike. While in LA if you want some down time with fun Indies and a home cooked meal, call her or me.

Thought the group here might find this interesting:
I just read on the Infinite complacency blog about Tibnous, a Cartoonist who was killed in the Charlie Hebdo attack. He covered Scientology in France and Jonay Jacobsen has a nice tribute with links to his anti- Scientology cartoons. Infinitecomplacency.blogspot.com
Eclipse-girl says
Good luck

Travel safe Mike

Godspeed, Mike.

I ran across the smear video for Jason Beg he on youtube. Its their usual transparently bad job. “He cries on cue…he’s violent…” (Showing footage from his acting roles) “We helped him…” (reading from his success letters)
We kicked him out!
Just sad.

When I was in – my friends would tell me about the “hate videos” The Church of Scientology put out on the Critics. It was embarrassing. I wrote it up but it did know good.
It did successfully suppress me however, in telling anyone I was in Scientology though…isn’t that interesting? Suppressed by the Church within the Church.
Jose Chung says
The overflow crowds that desire to see Going Clear at Sundance are trying to purchase tickets from those who have tickets. Any idea how much for these tickets are going for and anyone giving up their seat for how much? Hundreds of dollars,over a thousand ?
Idle Morgue says
I miss you Mike – and Regraded Beings Cartoons.
How come you have to go to LA to do a deposition yet Mike Ellis is too fat to fly?
Perhaps we can get a train car to get that ass hat to a deposition. Once we get him in front of some sanity and ask the right questions – David Miscavige is toast!
It is possible that Mike Ellis may be too fat to LIE.
scientology411 says
“too fat to LIE” LOL, that’s priceless!
John Doe says
I think Miscavige should let Mike Ellis go to the deposition. He will do fine — he’s too big to fail.
Michael Mallen says
Fat chance.
cindy says
Yeah. Move over Davie and Tom, there’s another “Big Being” in town!

Keep an eye out for Jenny at LAX…
KFrancis says
Yeah really……..she’ll be the woman walking towards you visibly shaken, both physically and mentally. Her identity can be confirmed by evidence of white foam showing on corners of her mouth.
Cooper Kessel says
LOL …….. Really got image KF. Nice work!! And what are those little piles on the floor behind Mark Yeager?
Old Surfer Dude says
His brains falling out of his ass?
afterglow says
are you sure that’s foam?
LDW says
With all of the fine work being done by so many competent people and the release of Gibneys film, I doubt anything is going to be returning back to normal any time soon, Mike:)
