Henry VIII 1, Roman Catholic Church and Scientology 0, Pietasters 20.

Henry, or at least Liz, must be smi­ling with satis­fac­tion from the grave over the con­ti­nued rec­rui­ting suc­cess of the Angli­can Church, even their bas­tard branch. In this case, Epis­co­pa­lians get them­sel­ves a hot Latino cha­ris­ma­tic priest with a large tele­vi­sion fan base in Miami. Bet­ter to have a fiancée than a 10 year old boy­friend. The Catho­lic Church should be relie­ved. Epis­co­pa­lians are not really doing a favor though. Face it, any sect would be proud to take him in, if not steal him outright, and the name, Cutié. How spe­cial is that?

More on Scien­to­logy, only because the pre­vious post inc­lu­ded a tid­bit on Scien­to­logy, from The Regis­ter via Mashable’s Wiki­pe­dia to Church of Scien­to­logy: You’re Ban­ned! , says one cult to another.

In an unpre­ce­den­ted effort to crack down on self-serving edits, the Wiki­pe­dia supreme court has ban­ned con­tri­bu­tions from all IP addres­ses owned or ope­ra­ted by the Church of Scien­to­logy and its associates.

Tuc­ker Carlson’s The Daily Caller to launch soon. Inte­res­ting disas­ter in the making. I kind of hoped he would have called it the daily poop, crap, or some deri­va­tive. I wish him bet­ter luck with this than he’s had with all his past endea­vors. I know fai­ling is s good thing for the life growth scale, but how many times can you fail without finally giving it up? I find it hard to believe Carl­son could ever allow real jour­na­lism on his site, des­pite him cons­tantly saying how much he sup­ports it. His penchant for get­ting the last word in is surely going to make this no more than a slightly less crazy, more hea­vily sub­si­di­zed, Red State.

I’m going to see The Pie­tas­ters later tonight. They’re pla­ying within wal­king dis­tance from here. They won’t go on until 10, and as my age belies my energy these days a nap will be in order.

How Fric­king cool is that? Espe­cially the “wal­king dis­tance no need to park” part?

Ans­wer: Pretty Fric­king cool.

I’ll pro­bably be out all night. ;)
