Nope. This dude was running around in the 19th century conjuring up dragons and witchcraft. Crazy, crazy stuff. Yes...but I am not sure he'd fail today...you've heard of scientology i am sure...some pretty prominent followers...they all have the same fundamental techniques to hook potential disciples. These guys believe that they have lived on other planets before their current lives here on earth...and their members have to pay steep fees to find out from which planet or other details of their prior lives...it's batshit crazy stuff yet they hook folks like cruise and travolta... Yes, I thought of that when making my prior post. And trust me, Cruise and Travolta also are batshit crazy, living double lives.......straight for the camera; gay when off camera. Actually, Travolta's two lives seem to be merging as of late.

That splintering sound you hear is CA breaking in two. Riverside officials approve summit to discuss splitting California Wednesday, July 13, 2011 RIVERSIDE, Calif. (KABC) -- The idea that would turn California into two separate states appears to be gaining some momentum. The Riverside County Board of Supervisors has given unanimous approval to a summit that would explore splitting California into two states. The proposal would have 13, predominately conservative, counties break away and create the state of South California. That would not include Los Angeles County. Supervisor Jeff Stone is pushing the idea, saying California has become too big to govern and Sacramento takes too much of Southern California's money. The Board of Supervisors voted for the summit with the stipulation that no public funds be spent on the secessionist movement. Proponents could turn to private donors for the funds.
