LOL. early scientology book covers are also a hoot and a half. "the problems of work" has a horrible cover almost indescribable in it's eldritch stupidity. LRH never managed to write his bogus excalibur book to drive people out of their minds, but his art comes damn close. if you combine that with his screech-owl drunken-mumbling singing barely improved by "ClearSound" ripping off queen, a band led by a flaming 1.1 (hubbard also claimed to be the reincarnation of cecil rhodes, another 1.1 "pervert"). i do believe that could do it. hubbard's art, and "thank you for listening" over and over again for about six hours would probably drive most people into a permanent and horrid state of insanity in which they might spend the rest of their lives in an asylum. . . LAUGHING THEIR ASSES OFF. i do not advise the "advanced lunacy" course at all. it would be VERY FOOLISH to read OT III for the first time while drinking whiskey and popping pinks and greys and performing the "babalon working" in a black-magic jack-off ritual, while also watching on multiple TVs david miscavige speeches and heber clips, while listening to "thank you for listening" and looking at. . .that. . .umm. . .art. that way lies madness rob thank you for hissing
