After weeks of photos like this or no sightings at all,

The snow leopards have reappeared.

They weren't gone, just working on their "How to Hide" lessons. They may appear to be looking at the camera here, but they're really looking at a dog being walked just beyond the bounds of the zoo. I think the word balloon says, "Good with ketchup!".

I haven't seen many South Park episodes, but the one on Scientology was amazing. It was short on the gross humor that South Park is known for, but it was a lovely take-down of Scientology all the same. Midway through the story, they had an animated version of Scientology's secret doctrines or whatever they're called. The following banner was flashing throughout:

THIS IS WHAT SCIENTOLOGISTS ACTUALLY BELIEVE.

Also features the cartoon head of Scientology saying,

"What's better than telling people a ridiculous story and having them believe you?"

and answering,

"Getting paid for it."

Also features various celebs and others begging Tom Cruise to come out of the closet. (He's in a real closet at the time).

The show closes with Stan yelling "I'm not scared of you. Sue me!"

In the credits for the episode, every single credit was either to John Smith or Jane Smith. Will the Scientologists be dumb enough to sue the South Park crew? I don't wish the South Park guys any legal difficulties, but it would probably be hilarious.
