Scientologists have no sense of humor (part 875)

The ever nutty Tom Cruise has stepped into the Isaac Hayes/"South Park" flap. Comedy Central was supposed to rerun the Scientology episode of the show this past Wednesday, but didn't. Cruise reportedly went to Viacom and threatened to withdraw from promoting its upcoming Mission Impossible 3 film if the episode aired. Viacom caved and ordered Matt Stone and Trey Parker not to discuss why the episode was yanked.

But the "South Park" guys issued this statement: "So, Scientology, you may have won THIS battle, but the million-year war for earth has just begun! Temporarily anozinizing our episode will NOT stop us from keeping Thetans forever trapped in your pitiful man-bodies. Curses and drat! You have obstructed us for now, but your feeble bid to save humanity will fail! Hail Xenu!!! - Trey Parker and Matt Stone, servants of the dark lord Xenu."

Oh, man. That is classic.

Micah, 4 stars? Why didn't you give us 5 stars? You killed our average. Come on Micah! We're old friends! You go back . . . upgrade us to 5!

Secondly, did you see what Tom Cruise did to get the Scientology episode pulled from Comedy Central?

I docked you a star because you don't always have a female co-host. Add one permanently and it'll be podcast nirvana.

And only God is perfect.

You're killing ThisShowAgain.com's average! Also, the women won't show up all the time.

Besides do you really want the SAME girl there every week?

Same, rotating...it's all good. So far, every woman you've put on the podcast has been funny AND hot-sounding.

Now, maybe if you paid their subway or cab fare they'd show up. :)
