catgate Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 Whilst pondering on Watchful's sig. I suddenly realised the reason for origin of scientology. The old lady who went to the bare cupboard, looking for a bone for her dog, was the founders mother! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belatucadrus Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 Elbert Hubbard American philosopher and writer. DeadL Ron Hubbard Hack Sci Fi writer and grade A loony. Presumably still on the "landing station" on the planet Venus.Related by adoption of his father not genetics, something the rest of the Hubbard family probably came to regard as a great mistake, I certainly would.

Watchful Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 I don't know anything about Elbert, I just like the quotation :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catgate Posted May 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 I was thinking along the lines of ...if Old Mother Hubbard was daft enough to go to an empty cupboard, to get the poor doggy a bone, then there is no accounting for what her off spring might dream up.

andsome Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Sounds to me as though the dog could use a proper meal. Bones are OK for gnawing on afterwards. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalph Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 I know a little variation to the traditional poem about Old Mother Hubbard, but I don't think it would go down very well on this Forum . :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
