Herb Zerden!
herb zerden...
when kathie and i split in june of '74 we decamped to her parents place in philly coming back later for the stuff in our apartment and we took a city bus over to I95 and started hitchhiking
and who should pull over to pick us up but herb zerden...
so we get in and asks what we're doing and i said (the nazarene instructs to speak the simple truth) "well, we're splitting". herb looks at us and says "...i don't know if i should do this..."
but he did
and this i thought to be really cool...
scientologists are mostly really decent people. some will just be pure scienonazis but most will put aside policy for the moment and just be human when they recognize it to be appropriate
i was quite surprised to learn herb's life took the trajectory it took...
