Scientologists maintain being exposed to too much of their trade secrets, oops, religious dogma, all at once can cause pneumonia.

I don't know if Prevnar is effective on that . . . .
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

That said, apparently, at least according to Going Clear, Hana Eltingham developed suicidal thoughts after going through OT3, apparently because the Xenu story contradicted so much of the CoS Dogma she had learned about so far (especially the revelation that going clear meant a lot less than she had thought), and at one point, the only thing stopping her from jumping off the roof of one of Scientology's buildings was the bad PR it would give.

Also, I've started reading Troublemaker. While Leah Remini's personality does not come across as particularly likable, it goes without saying that the story of her relationship with Scientology is easily the most interesting part of the book, admittedly largely due to the "ordinary Scientologist" (as opposed to defecting higher-up who couldn't stand being around Davey-boy) perspective of the narrative is new to me, at least, except for the stories of guys like Jason Beghe and Paul Haggis.

That said, it's kind of disappointing to me that she seems to devote all of two paragraphs (and two photographs of her with Mark-Paul Gosselaar on the photo pages) to her (admittedly brief) stint on Saved By the Bell.

At first, I strongly suspected whoever did this photoshop fucked up the placement of their vertical axis, perhaps misidentifying an outer Incisor for a Canine tooth.

However, looking into it, while I haven't had confirmation, it seems Tom Cruise had some serious dental surgeries to make his smile look better, and one wound up shifting the teeth in his upper jaw so it's kind of out of alignment.

That said, I'm still not sure about the axes of this particular picture.

Last night's episode was interesting. It was more about the practice of splitting up families when people decide to leave the "church."

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
