Another one bites the dust

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Wet dreams of filling that overbite.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

He had a TV show back in the day where they proudly proclaimed:

"If you can prove anything on this show is a trick, we will give you $50,000"

Or something like that.

I was into magic for awhile as a kid and so I watched intently.

William Shatner was a guest-star one episode.

Kreskin laid out 20 large cards (5 x 4 rows?) on a table and then had himself blindfolded.

He told Captain Kirk not to touch any cards, but to choose a card to start...

Then he told him to count the month of his birthday, then the day, etc, in left to right/up and down fashion.

Finally ending upon a certain card, he said "Flip it over."

Twas a pic of William Shatner.

"Flip over all the rest of the cards."

They were all blank.

Shatner was completely stunned.

Well I immediately recognized it as a simple math trick!

Shatner's birthdate/etc were common knowledge.

I laid out 20 cards and did the counting over and over... starting at each card.

Every single time I ended on the same exact card... 4th card over; 3rd card down (whatever).

And I knew that would be the case even as Kreskin was performing the trick.

My parents said "Good going, but those bastards are not going to pay anyone that $50K."

From that moment on I loathed the very core of "The Amazing Kreskin". :scowl:

Also, Captain Kirk went from my hero to a zero and I started hanging in the park at night. :twisted:
