church of the communication here's a little something I found on my ride yesterday. I'm not sure what pool I want to post it to in flickr but I thought youall might appreciate the irony of this.
It's a super cool cult hangout! Probably just your standard uberwealthy commune filled with brainwashing, drug-making, money-laundering, gun-running, slave-trading bigamists.
iconomy / jon, that's pretty dead-on my first impression of this place. The only fly in the ointment of the cult theory is that they haven't installed a 20 foot high enclosure topped in concertina wire.
in fact, I know its hard to see because of the distance and the tall weeds in the foreground but in the yard? and surrounding the property? nothing. no fence, no landscaping - zip, zilch, nada. dead grass, dirt and a concrete driveway, that's it. and I know for a fact this place has had residents living in it for at least 18 months.
