We really can’t think of any sort of connection between our weekly collection of wacky Scientology mailers and a meaningless American holiday that celebrates binge drinking. But what the heck! We will toast David Miscavige with our first margarita tonight.
So anyway, our tipsters have come through with another collection of church come-ons, and it’s a good day for a chuckle, because we have a feeling that things are really going to heat up on the blog this week. Not only do we have several big investigative stories working, but we hear that some big legal proceedings we’ve been following are going to pop at any moment. This week is like a big fat piñata filled with little tequila bottles just waiting to burst open!
All right, enough with the Battle of Puebla. Let’s get on with the Funnies.
In our first mailer, we’re excited to see that the church’s increased presence in our nation’s capital is already paying off in such an encouraging way! Look who came in for a tour and ended up with some exciting literature!
Next up: Even the Ron Series is now worthy of its own success stories! These books can’t help but turn the tide for the most ethical people on the planet!
You’re never going to achieve spiritual enlightenment without one of these babies to launch you into orbit. And what a bargain!
And talk about a bargain — what’s a little cheddar when it means you’ll be able to affect matter with your mind? Get ready to fly!
On Friday, we published an e-mail which showed how much attendance at Saturday’s Ideal Org opening in Portland will be relying on outsiders showing up. And here’s more about how they’re going to get there!
Thanks again to our great tipsters — keep those mailers and fliers coming!

Brandon Ogborn — Please Save Us a Seat!
Well, this is certainly welcome news here in the Bunker. Recently, Synthia Fagen did us the favor of interviewing Brandon Ogborn about his play, The TomKat Project, which is skewering Scientology and getting rave reviews in Chicago. Now comes word that the production will be included in this year’s Fringe Festival here in New York City this August.
Maybe we ought to arrange an Underground Bunker night at the show?
