2. Just long enough to teach them a lesson, if necessary. |

I've been nodding off. How many times have people discussed the whole scientology thing, I wonder? Am I the only one sick of that whole thing?

I've always been a tad ruffled by the idea of beating a dead horse. The visual makes me a little sad inside.
