Had a great time with lots of old friends and many new ones.

I'll be writing up the convention next week when I get back from Ohio. Just got back to Seattle tonight, in the AM off to Cincinnati for a gig on Saturday.

World Magic Seminar

Later today I leave for the World Magic Seminar. The way I feel at the moment, I don't even feel like going. The walls are closing in on me as I fight depression. I really feel like smoking some pot, but I want to see my little kids too much to fuck that up. Wednesday morning, while at the convention I have a mediation conference call with Moria and Ed Greenleaf from Family Court Services. The fight is just about to get good and I feel like throwing in the towel. Moira and her "Life Support System For Her Pussy" Lawyer Slitdress McCumful have no desire to embrace the opportunity to mediate. They are preparing for war at the trial in April. . . and so am I. They have no idea what is in store for them. Slitdress, who starred in a bunch of bad porno movies in the 70's is gonna feel like the flick where the horse ripped her poor asshole apart. It was a great scene. . . almost as good as the one we will shoot in April. Wonder what happened to her, I used to like her. I remember jacking off to her films in high school. Guess she got tired of getting fucked in the ass and wanted to start doing some of the fucking. Law School seemed like a wise decision for a spent piece if jet trash. Amazing not only does she get to fuck me, but she gets to fuck Moira at the same time. Must remind her of her old job.

I get back on Thursday and Fly to Cincy on Friday. Perform at the Weinstein Bar Mitzvah on Saturday then to Cleveland on Sunday for the funeral do over, memorial service, back to Cincy on Monday and fly back to Seattle on Tuesday.

I am beginning to loose it. Feel too fragile to compete in an international competition in less than 24 hours. Earlier today I yelled at Buster so loud it sent me back to my own childhood, I slammed the door hard in anger and frustration. Fuck, really need to get a grip.

Whatever. With any luck this blog post will disappear like the others.

Right Between the Eyes • By Graham Nash

My head is hanging heavy with the thoughts of him in mind
'Tis sacrilege for us to take advantage of the blind
So, tell before you come to me from out of yonder skies
A man's a man who looks a man right between the eyes

And the pain that we can bring to him
I don't think he could beat
Please don't ask me how I know
I've just been up that street
And all the people living there
Have been silenced by their own lies
A man's a man who looks a man right between the eyes

And talking' from experience I know how he would feel
Waking up and finding that his one love wasn't real
But the age of truth will soon appear, Aquarius arrives
A man's a man who looks a man right between the eyes

Joke

A father walks into a bookstore with his young son. The boy is holding a quarter. Suddenly, the boy starts choking, going blue in the face The father realizes the boy has swallowed the quarter and starts panicking, shouting for help.

A well dressed, attractive and serious looking woman, in a blue business suit is sitting at a coffee bar reading a newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee. At the sound of the commotion, she looks up, puts her coffee cup down, neatly folds the newspaper and places it on the counter, gets up from her seat and makes her way, unhurried, across the book store.

Reaching the boy, the woman carefully drops his pants; takes hold of the boy's testicles and starts to squeeze and twist, gently at first and then ever so firmly. After a few seconds the boy convulses violently and coughs up the quarter, which the woman deftly catches in her free hand. Releasing the boy's testicles, the woman hands the coin to the father and walks back to her seat in the coffee bar without saying a word.

As soon as he is sure that his son has suffered no ill effects, the father rushes over to the woman and starts thanking her saying, "I've never seen anybody do anything like that before, it was fantastic. Are you a doctor?"

"No," the woman replied. "Divorce attorney".

Fenix Underground

Fenix Underground

It felt good to get back to work at the Fenix. Melancholy on the way downtown. It was a Friday and Saturday night ritual to call my mom and talk during my 20 minute drive to the club. Nutty thing has been happening the last few times I've worked there; I've been getting "over the top" reactions from people, especially the women. They've been screaming and squealing with delight, even the guys are much more vocal in their reactions. Not sure if I'm doing anything differently or if it's cause I'm getting laid these days but whatever the story. . . I'll take it!!

Really enjoyed my sets tonight. Thought a lot about the close up contest at the World Magic Seminar next week. While performing this evening I thought about all the different ways to fill 12-15 minutes with the 6 tricks I know. I came up with 243 and a half variations. My multiple card selection was on the money tonight! Did it with up to 12 cards this evening. One girl, with big tits said, "See if you can find my card on me" Without hesitating, I confidently reached right down the top of her low cut top and produced her card from between her beautiful breasts."

She screamed in a shrill tone like a (well endowed) school girl laughing and spilling her drink on her self. Right On!!!

Another beautiful woman paid me $10 to teach her a self working card trick and a guy bought a bridge sized stripper deck for $20. All in all, I'd have to say it was a good night.

A bit about a Jewish burial

Immediate Burial

The mourning period begins with the funeral. It is tradition for the burial to take place as soon as possible, even on the same day of the death, but no more than two nights after the death. Only under certain circumstances, the burial can be delayed. It is considered disrespectful to keep the body from being buried as soon as possible. Her soul has returned to G-d, but her body is left to linger in the land of the living. That would be considered a matter of great shame.

Jewish people do not have a wake (where the body is displayed), because Judaism beliefs is that the body should be brought to its resting place as soon as possible. It is not customary to bring flowers because the funeral is to be as simple as possible. Only wood coffins are used in Jewish funerals because Judaism belief is that we do not preserve the body because as the body decays, the soul ascends to Heaven.
