Is is verifiable?

I learned that the pastor at the Church of the Six Flags over Jesus apparently apologized to the congregation after his last evening Mass before he departed with all his points to Siberia to "all the people he ever alienated." Strange that he would do that in front the of the people he has not alienated but not reach the people directly whom he really has alienated and who were of course not there. Perhaps he was just afraid of flying. I have set the barr of expectations very low. Can't get disappointed that way.
