This post is coming straight to the internet from San Diego, CA, well, La Jolla, actually. It would be the first time I've been here in about 10 years. It's been a nice opportunity to see some sites and catch up with some college friends.
The sites were kicked off with the Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre International in Hollywood. It may be the first time I sat through a conversion attempt. It certainly was the first one that was so long. It was highlighted by an informational video to Scientology. Much of this video contained funny moments, but one quote stands out. "If you wish to leave the room after seeing this film, walk out and never mention Scientology again, you are free to do so. It would be stupid, but you are free to do it. You can also dive off a bridge, or blow your brains out; that is your choice." They are right, though. With a quotel like this, it would be stupid never to mention Scientology again. But they never said I had to say good things about it.
Otherwise, we saw Point Loma, UCSD, and La Jolla Shores, including at UCSD a tour of the new CSE building. UCSD has some nice modern looking buildings. At some point we'll hit the roads again, and I'll hopefully catch the SPARKLE show on Santa Barbara's West Beach.
