Just a flower smelling illusion….?

Posted on April 29th, 2007 by Jim

Mark Twain once said – ‘Don’t part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist,”but you have ceased to live.’ 

Head over to Mighty Optical Illusions and if your head is still not straight try Youtube and check out Optical Illusion or David Blaine (?) in L.A based on a world where nothing seems quite right. Sound familiar? What is magic in your life at the moment? Do tell….

    Great Blaine poof clip – scary eyes! Magic in my life at the moment would have to be the gift of life and extra pizza toppings, my ipod and The Sopranos.

    I know a guy who knows David Blaine, does that make me famous? Or at least interesting? No? I didn’t thinks so.

    Magic in my life right now – nothing :(

    Every Saturday I can make about 50 quid disappear and at the same time almost disable my legs and general co-ordination.
    Does that count?

    HA! I’m the same at the bookies…watch it go. Come on Bar Bar, surely something that rocks your boat at the moment?

  5. dubaidave says:

    BAR BAR – do you really know someone woh knows blaine…do tell more, any tales?? Can you get them on this blog to post something? The guy intrigues me, modern day Houdini.

  6. AngryFromEllesmerePort says:

    What about the UK version – Derren Brown

  7. simplesimon says:

    Hey c’omn bar bar…surely some magic in your life now – even if it’s getting Blaines mate on this blog. That would be magic..

  8. gareth in Bali says:

    Jim, Please post that clip I sent you of David Chesterfield, Blaine – bunch of ArXX mate.

  9. sarah says:

    Derren brown? Not heard of him. Whatever happened to Paul Daniels? Slimey git he was.

  10. AngryFromEllesmerePort says:

    My fifteen minutes of fame – Paul Daniels came round to my house when he was at the height of his popularity – very slimey. My father did National Service with him and held him over a balcony by his ankles in Hong Kong in the 1950’s

    David/Derren/Paul who?

    You’ll like this – not a lot!

    Id thid Gulf news for real? Tabloid or broadsheet?

  13. dubaidave says:

    A so called broadsheet but with the odd surreal local tale to tell of life in the ME. 7 days is the best, more tabloid with western reality.

  14. David Blaine has very good showmanship and his magic tricks are good too.”*:

  15. i like the magic tricks of David Blaine but Chris Angel is much better.~*.

  16. David Blaine is not the best magician but he surely amazes me with his old tricks-”`

  17. I think that this post was a great read, so I posted it on my Facebook page to hopefully give you more readers. Perhaps you could look into something like that to make it easier for your readers to do this. Just my 2 cents.
