A return to normalcy

Finally! I'm bringing my blog back to life. I probably won't be updating it as often as I was before, but make sure to check back every couple days to see what's new.

Until then...

Blogger Forum

I've just hooked up with Blogger Forum, seems to be a site dedicated to Blogger users. I'll check it out and if I find anything interesting, you might here more about it from me.

A Twilight Zone Moment - I just HAD to share this with you...

I just tried the spell-check feature on Blogger for the first time and guess what?

The words "blog" and "blogger" are not in its dictionary.

I don't mean to rag on Blogger, it's a great service. I just think it makes for a nice paradox...

Truth. Love. Respect.

I decided to try out the new beta.blogger.com site and created a new blog: http://truth-love-respect.blogspot.com As it will become all too clear as I continue to update it, this blog will have a cyclic theme, where the first post is about truth, the second about love, the third about respect and then back to truth again. You get the picture.

The beta version of blogger has some decent upgrades, including a simple way to change the layout of your template, and it gives you some more control overall.

But the big disappointment right now is that you are not yet able to edit the html of the template. Even though there is a tab for it, clicking on "Edit HTML" will give you a message that says: "Raw template editing functionality coming soon." I do hope that this means sooner than later, or I will be moving my new blog over to the old site, where my other three blogs are hosted. But I do encourage you to check it out and give it a shot — I am sure that an increased number of people using the new service will accelerate the "raw template editing functionality."

As you may be wondering why I'm starting a fourth blog when I haven't been updating the other three, do not be alarmed — for I have now mastered the art of multi-tasking. Which should translate into multi-blogging... (And believe it or not, a google search will reveal that I wasn't the first one to dream up the word "multi-blogging".)

The David Miscavige Quote of the Day will be revived as a daily feature and I'll get the other blogs updated every couple days as well.

But for now, this blog will be my mainstay and I'll update the other ones as I see fit.

David Miscavige Quote of the Day

Here it is, the quote of the day, from Mr. Miscavige's speech at the Celebrity Centre gala event:

Scientology is a modern religion, born in the technical age of the 20th century. And if you were to ask any Scientologist, they would tell you it is a practical religion, with practical answers — tools that can be applied to achieve that greater awareness and purpose in the here and now. Or, as we say it, when you have the answers to life's questions — there is virtually no part of existence it cannot be applied to for the betterment of life itself.
