the downtown location is moving away from typical FSD teachings, a bit more every day.

this location is the only one offering "MMA" type training as far as i can tell.

It's tough to unload a fsd franchise with the amount of bad press it has garnered. With no relief in site, changing the name and changing the game may be the only way for fsd to stop hemorrhaging students and the potential licencing of any fsd school. How changes like that will ever equate to accredited instruction is suspect, as usual.

It must burn seafoods arse to see his baby, ugly as it is, dwindle away to nothing. I can hardly wait for the new name! Maybe Bob Wall had some ideas, seeing as he seemed strangely attracted to jp and co..

Here, on the porch, whittling me a fighting stick

ps. Did anyone go and meet "O'hara"! Just curious, and way to cheap to pay to see a movie star.

At this point in started wondering if the water in his bottle really was water and not some strong alcohol (seeing his face every time he took a sip, i wouldn't be surprising if he was completely drunk at the time he made this speech). He kept going until some point, where he started to shout at a student, running at him. faking to punch him, the saying how HE isnt respectful to all of us and how HE is the one who think he's better then everyone. Then he left this student and started harassing a second one, saying that he is no better, and that he deserve to get beaten up to death. He kept shouting at them for a couple of minutes, then he calmed down....

jp has often used liquid strengthener to make pointless threats. Now, that's insecure!
He has a new bit of bull-lore that includes the significance of a barn, and in references to his inherited fighting genes, and he wastes no time pushing the pooh on others. Wait for it, a manger birth is soon to follow! That, or jp is full of bad Thetans!

No, its an indication of abuse of power and position.

Let me clairify; it would appear to be a standard tactic for FSD. At least jp has been using it since 1994.

Abuse of power and position? Sure - that's an apt description.

So, what went wrong between Bob Wall and jp's crew? Did somebody not live up to their end of the deal?

I'm just fishing because the bragging curtly ended on the fsd blog. Maybe I just feel a disturbance in the universe's qi.... No! That was gas! Beans, beans.

Surely, someone was there. ;)

I'm just a figure of speech.

From the fsd blog..." My father's first student was also with us and sharing his experience..."

One free Smilie to the one who guesses the first name of jps first student. Two if you can give the initial of the last name.

I assume they mean from their location in that church basement.
