October News
October is always our Evening of Odd Show and it was hit minus the lack of food. Joe Diamond introduced us to Flora his doll, who could for-tell the random word selected from a book, it was very creepy. Then Bob LaRue found a prediction in a box from 1939 that was in a Rainforrest Camp. Inside was an artifact. All be darned if the old prediction was the same outcome from the show! Susan Zeller recited a Poem from Midsummer’s Night Dreamwith Linking Rings and did a superb job performing the Card Warp with jumbo cards. Lew Wymisner had some death breath from a compeer inside a jar. The breath could light a light bulb and bent fork tines when the fork was placed inside the jar as well. Next Amy Marshack had a prediction that the helper would either pick Pork Skins, Anchovies, or Gefilte fish. Once again, she was spot on. Chris Manos had nails under a Styrofoam cup and luckily did not pierce his hand when instructed to smash his hand onto the cups. Andrew Hatfield had rope locked onto a rope. When the spectators pulled onto the rope the knot came untied but the lock remained securely on the center of the rope. Marty Jewell, the Queen of puns revived a PI-Rat. Gene Gordon, spelled out a person’s name, with cards, did his version of a burned hand on a Out to Lunch business card and did the Magic Slates. Steve Aldrich and Jasmine had a stamp collection vanish from a book and also pulled out apples and silks from a hatbox. Gregg Tobo delivered a prediction to our Emcee of the night, Mark Strivings. With the use of Flash Paper the smoke alarm went off and the card corner vanished and ended up back at Mark’s house. Todd Robbins pounded a nail into his nasal cavity, sucked the end of a balloon into his nose as well and the end wound its way into his throat. His Uvula almost stopped it.
We also had Matthew Garrett sign in and amazed the group with his Linking Ring and Linking anything and Everything skills! He performed his Impossible Ring Routine, GIR rings, Ninja Plus, Double Tiered Fan, Magic Square, and his Story Deck card trick. It was totally amazing.
