It was entertainment night at the Senior Citizens Centre and the hypnotist's stage name was Flyguy who had been invited to perform his show. Flyguy, explained: "I'm here to put you into a trance.
I intend to hypnotize each and every member of the audience." The excitement was almost electric as Fly withdrew a beautiful antique pocket watch from his coat. "I want you each to keep your eye on this antique watch. It's a very, very, special watch.
It's been in my family for six generations and I have the spread sheet to prove it." He began to swing the watch gently back and forth while quietly chanting, "Watch the watch, watch the watch, watch the watch..." The crowd became mesmerized as the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its polished surface. Hundreds of pairs of eyes followed the swaying watch.
Until, suddenly, the chain broke, it slipped from Fly's grip and fell to the floor, breaking into a hundred pieces...âŚ... Crap!!!! exclaimed Flyguy.
It took three days to clean up the Senior Citizens Centre. Flyguy was never invited back to entertain.
