A Magician’s Final Act?

Mystery abounded last night at Hollywood’s members only private club, the Magic Castle.  Police were called in when, reportedly, a man’s body was found in a closet with a bag over his head, wearing only his underwear.  They are saying this morning that the deceased was a magician, though no name has been released and while authorities suspect suicide, foul play has not been ruled out.

  1. My heart is broken. It reminds me of a report I read in a 1976 copy of “Construction Magazine.” where workers renovating a building in Victoria, Australia found a skeleton of a man wedged between studs in a house. A forensic investigation revealed that, brace yourself,
    the man was the 1956, Melbourne Olympic, “Hide and Seek” Champion from Kenya.
    I shit you not.

  2. If I didn’t think a little levity was a good thing, I wouldn’t make 99% of the comments that I do. I had to pick at you for that old joke, though. No offense intended, of course. Your comments are the best. Better than mine, anyway. Which isn’t saying much.

  3. Perspective; Ya think I’m shitten ya? Just this year, a fourteen year old snowflake cousin of mine in County Offaly complained to my dear sister Margaret, his mother, that she did not treat him as well as she did his brothers at their Christening. He pouted, You skated Sean and Dermot across the lake to the church, with a big parade. And you only drove me to the church in the Opel.
    That, my sister said, is because Sean and Dermot were born in January, and you, you little prick, were born in August
    That’s my sister.

  4. You’re right Moe Tom. We need a joke thread now and then.

    And another thing…I would love to hear some of your stories from your years in Italy.

    Maybe we need a story-teller thread too. A MoeTom ‘There I was” story of Italy during your Army years could be fun. ‘There I was” soldier stories are always a blast.
