On a final note, just found out that Isaac Hayes is a scientologist. A very unsexy religion for the king of sweet love by the fireplace type music. How can you trust a religion founded by a science fiction author? Its like believing in a religion founded by a car salesman, total redemption in 30 days or your money back! 1 years free rosary insurance, 2 years free hail mary insurance and a free 'jesus wants me for an oven glove' badge!

This reminded me of a conversation we had with my friend's boyfriend at the pub, the Duke of Gloucester. A 2nd floor establishment, you couldn't miss the glaringly bright Scientology building across the road (complete with a Big Brother cafe on the ground level!!), so it came up in conversation. He claimed that it's just a huge tax write-off for the stars, and the only reason they get involved. So I suppose they pump their money in and it comes back to them as some sort of massive tax return. Perhaps the Gentle Waves should consider that option once they make millions. elisabeth xx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
