Should We Prepare The Guillotine?
In September 2003, David Blaine began performing the infamous “Above the Below” endurance contest. Some people might call Blaine a magician and I think when he rose to prominence in the 1990s, his street illusions distanced himself from the glamourous style of David Copperfield or Seigfried and Roy.

‘SNL’ Skit Did Go Too Far
Mel Brooks, one of the Kings of Comedy, once said: “Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall in an open sewer and die.” The line means that as long as it doesn’t happen to me, it won’t hurt as much.

Support Your Local Library For National Library Week
This is National Library Week. And while it seems this is another program that the Trump Administration will try to defund because it doesn’t turn a profit, you need to still support your local library.

If America Was Ran As A Business, Trump Would’ve Already Been Fired
I was glad to see the “Hands Off” protests happening all over the country yesterday. There were protestors nearby my home in Tahlequah, Okla. as well as in my hometown of Calhoun, Ga.
