This morning on the way to the LA Central Library (which I highly recommend), I heard on the radio about Scientology leader David Miscavige naming Tom Cruise the “chosen one” of the religion.* While drinking coffee before the library opened, I had a conversation with a likeable man named Dash, who told me that when he was 3 years old his parents took him to see L. Ron Hubbard personally,** who declared that Dash would one day be the head of his own religion.***
*I don’t know if this is remotely accurate.
** I have no reason to doubt this.
*** This may already be true.
