In order to make my tab at the Sacred Sales Shack
an even $50, I
purchased Pamphlet #1. It had been years since I had
read this (I was
working as a security guard at the time) and I thought
that since I have had
years upon years of being exposed to the greater Mysteries,
I would be
better able to understand the verbiage contained in
said pamphlet.
I Was Wrong.
If anything, my lack of ignorance made the pamphlet
even MORE
incomprehensible! It was then that I came to the horrible
realization that
perhaps this is the type of communication we have been
sending the X-ists.
If so, we are doomed.
I remarked out loud, to myself: "Damn! This
is more confusing that VCR
instructions!"
Perhaps the X-ists timers have been stuck on the
blinking 12:00 all this
time! Perhaps they have only read as far as the Antaren
and Epsilonian
translations and haven't gotten around to the Earth
Translation. Or worse
yet, what if they collectively said: "Screw't"
and proceeded to wander off
to have lunch at the nearest Xist equivalent of Steak
& Shake, leaving us in
our over-written, verbose, Purgatory?
For the love of Dobbs, lets make it easy for these
guys, from now on, all
official Church communication must be in pictogram form,
or failing that,
Cuneiform.

I've said this a number of times already and I'll say
it again:
We didn't generate enough Hatred for the Xists to locate
us. This,
I believe, is what's happened on each of the previous
X-Days.
Granted, there's plenty of hatred in this world, and
granted,
being awakened and then dragged out of your warm sleeping
bag
at 6:30 am on X-Day sure isn't going to generate much
brotherly love,
but there still wasn't enough Hatred for the Xists to
home in on.
And no one can say that I didn't try to do my part.
Posting
all those vague accusations and sweeping generalizations
about SUVs
and sushi, while naming no one in particular. But noooo...
Everyone was
so psyched up about going to Brushwood! Everyone wanted
to go CAMPING
and rub ELBOWS with the Hierarchy, and maybe win some
dinky prize!
No one could be BOTHERED with working up a GOOD LATHER!
And NOW lookit
what you got for your trouble; ANOTHER YEAR on this
FESTERING POISONOUS
DIRT CLOD! Another YEAR 'til the Xist ships make the
loop around
the Milky Way and within sensor range of us again!
Well I hope you're all HAPPY.
