I would magically make all cement trucks disappear…

November 22, 2006 6:59 am

Well… I pulled into the drive way a bit grumpy after a 5 hour spin today. You see, I’d been buzzed by one too many dump trucks. Really, what’s the deal with dump truck drivers?… and cement truck drivers?…. and garbage truck drivers?… and school bus drivers?… and city bus drivers?

Damnitt.

I’ve come to the conclusion that the day E-Bay begins selling RPG’s and Stinger Missiles, I’m going to snag one up and mount it to my handlebars. Then we’ll see how many of those bastards buzz me. It’s all fun and games untill I fire an RPG right into the glove box of some douch bag driving a behemoth vehicle halfway into my cozy, little, sand, rock and garbage covered bike lane.

Anyways, I had prepared a long and drawn out rant complaining about cement truck drivers and why I want to tar and feather them but I soon forgot all about it…

How did you forget about it?

Well, I was browsing my e-mail inbox and I came across an e-mail from my mom. In it was a link to a magic trick. Now, I normally find magic tricks kind of lame. Why? Well, don’t get me wrong they’re cool to watch, but I generally get annoyed at the fact that I can’t do them. I would love to make things disappear and then magically reappear as I blew on them. I think I would make my classroom disappear. That way I wouldn’t have to attend class. I would also like to stuff assistants into boxes and stick swords through the boxes and then make the box disappear and then magically reappear with my assitstant wearing a new outfit and not having any swords stuck through her. As for my outfit, it would be very similar to something Zorro would have worn. Moustache and all…

Way cool if you ask me.

Ok, back to my story… So there in my inbox was a link to a magic trick. I didn’t click on it… then my mom told me an Asian man throws a playing card that some girl wrote on, into a closed fish tank and then puts his hand through the glass to pull it out… and he didn’t even break the glass. So polite of him!

The only thing that would have made this better is if something was on fire… or maybe the addition of a pit of alligators. Or sting rays… you do know, they’re the alligators of the 21st century.

Click the link and see the magic trick yourself…

Cyril has a fishy card trick

See, we both forgot all about the evil that is cement trucks. Isn’t magic great!

Now click that link and marvel at all the magical wonders.
