Tom Cruise isn't the only one--In my past life I was an agrarian serf

I died at thirty-two of dysentery or "evil spirits" as the proto-Scientologist apothecary called it. I gave her a perfectly healthy Suffolk ewe for that diagnosis, too. :grr:

1. And did you get at least
a good bloodletting?

Next time, try Theodoric of York.

4. The Operating Thetans killed me off at 15.
I was having lots of fun under the Protectorship of the Duke of Northumberland until those damn Thetans murdered me. Such a posh life. I really regret leaving the throne to Lady Jane Grey though. Yikes. That didn't go well for her.

5. Finally I can learn
Did she seem like a nine-day queen or a thirteen-day queen? :shrug:

9. Ed! I didn't know Thetans got ya.
Did they do your Mom, Queen Jane in too, or was your Dad involved in her murder as with the other two of the other 5 wives?

6. I was Mozart
I know this because like Tom Cruise reading Shakespeare and realizing that's who he was in a former life, I remember hearing the Marriage of Figaro when I was in high school and getting a feeling of Deja Vu.

What I can't understand is why images of Bugs Bunny and other Warner Brothers cartoon characters beating each up in time to the music appeared in my head. I guess even Scientology can't explain every mystery.

8. I was Wagner in a past life
But my libretto would have included: "Kill the Wabbit! Kill the Wabbit!"

11. I was a lovely Provencial end table in 1820...
I was a frigidaire ice box who had a short career as a prop on The Honeymooners...
I was a couple of dozen squirrels (hawk, several cars, misstep on the high power lines, bb gun...)...
I was that guy, you know the one, did stuff and wore shirts...

And all that time Katie Holmes was really in love with me. Seriously.
