Jerry Seinfeld on Scientology
Well, Don't take it from me that Scientology is good, take it from a very funny comedian... Jerry Seinfeld. This is an interview that I got from parade.com that I you should see.
"On Studying Scientology"
“I last really studied, oh, it’s almost 30 years ago. But what I did do, I really liked, in terms of it’s very...it was interesting. Believe it or not...it’s extremely intellectual and clinical in its approach to problem-solving, which really appealed to me. I actually got to it from my auto mechanics teacher in high school, who was into it, and he was telling me about it. In my early years of stand-up, it was very helpful. I took a couple of courses. One of them was in communication, and I learned some things about communication that really got my act going.”
“It was just things about understanding the communications cycle... Even the volume at which I’m speaking now is the right volume for where you’re sitting. I’m almost performing, in a way.”
“You would just understand that there’s this kind of voice, and then there’s this kind of voice, and then there’s this kind of voice. I wasn’t a natural performer at all, so I learned. I was always a pretty good writer in the beginning, but I really had to learn how to perform. Just a little thing like that, understanding that really helped me on stage to understand how you have to invade the space of the audience a little bit. I learned that early on. It was a very helpful thing to learn. You have to invade them just a little bit. Not too much, because then it’s obnoxious. But you can’t be short of them either, or you won’t control them."
"They have a lot of very good technology. That’s what really appealed to me about it. It’s not faith-based. It’s all technology. And I’m obsessed with technology."
I thought that you guys out there would find this interesting.
Let me know what you think.

Oil prices soar!
WOW!
121.73 for a gosh dang barrel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is a gang a money for crude oil don't you think!?!?!?
In my town in Florida I am paying 3.50 for a gallon of gas but my father in Los Angeles, CA is paying around 3.89 and there are some place in California that cost over 4.00!!!
So folks, I guess getting that hybrid is starting to look good. I mean I am actually considering selling my Supercharged Range Rover now...
I was reading the below article and thought that I should share it.
"Oil futures surged to a new record over $120 a barrel Monday, raising concerns about higher prices for gasoline and goods and services throughout the economy. Retail gas prices fell more than a cent over the weekend, but oil's advance increased the likelihood that pump prices would resume their climb.
Supply threats that emerged overseas and a weaker dollar sent light, sweet crude for June delivery to a new trading record of $120.36 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange before futures retreated slightly to settle up $3.65 at a record $119.97.
Oil's sharp rise this year has driven gas prices to unprecedented levels, prompting consumers to reconsider summer vacation plans and limit daily excursions; they're also spending less at malls and shopping centers because they're paying more not just for fuel, but for all kinds of goods and services. Americans are also being pinched by tight credit conditions, a sluggish jobs market and a downturn in the housing market"
So... What I would like are some comments from all yall... I want to know what my readers believe we should do. I am honestly interested in what you think we should do or can do about it...

Florida Detox
Hello!
I know that I have mentioned before that there is a great medical detox facility in New Port Richey Florida called Novus Medical Detox and this is one of the best facilities that I know of.
So I am a counselor there - what of it... That means that I know firsthand why it would comprise such a good facility. Here are my reasons:
1. The difference between our facility is the level of care that goes into what we do, I mean that in a normal rehab or Detox you are considered all the same and all patients take the same meds at the same time and if you need something else stiff shit - Well, that is NOT how we operate, if a patient is nervous or anxious we will always do whatever we can to help him - That I promise you.
2. We use drugs in getting the patients off the drugs but the unique part is that we use quite a lot of holistic methods and ways to help the patients while they are here and we have major success with this. Many patients want to purchase the same natural products that we have available to them when they leave to ensure that when they are back at home they feel as good and as relaxed as they did at Novus.
3. The atmosphere is very relaxed and serene, there are no wake up times and you really get to conduct your day the way that you want to. I do sometimes tease people that I will wake them up at 7am with a bugle but i have yet to actually follow through. :)
4. As I am a counselor there I would have to say that we have good counsellor's :)... But in all honesty I am completely being honest when i say that. Look, I grew up in Los Angeles and have not been living with my parents since I was about 9 years of age. I did this on my own and it was in no way because my parents were nasty or in any way mean - I wanted to get street smarts so that I could relate to anyone that I talked to and understand where they were coming from. In being around the bums of LA I actually learned quite a lot, Since then I went to school and actually was able to work for some of the elite in Los Angeles so I have the taste of the full spectrum, No matter where you are coming from.
Having said that, My entire goal when I am working with someone at Novus would be to get them to look at the situations in their life that they have gotten into with the drugs or Alcohol and see what we could do to handle these. It is great and I will tell you honestly that when someone makes a life changing move and is very happy about and sheds a tear, THEN and only Then are my most true and genuinely happy moments on earths coil as that is what I live for and breathe for. And that is truly why I work at Novus.
