I just received an interesting phone call. I have an interview next week to do some closeup magic for a TV commercial. I was asked if I had ever performed for TV before and if I was available for the interview. I have to show up for the interview in my magic attire and perform a few tricks. I will let everyone know how it goes and hopefully I can give everyone more info about the commercial.

Well,

How did it go?

I did not go to the interview. The day before I slipped and fell on the ice at 'a large chain drug store'. Another story to tell. I cut my hand, head, strained my neck and received a mild concussion. Least to say, I was very dissapointed I could not go. It was for the McDonalds 25 cents chicken mcnugget ads.

Sorry to hear about your accident.

That is horrible. I hope you feel better.

That's just bad luck right there

Yeah...I'm sure he sued the pants off the Drug Store and now he's sitting pretty on a gold mind of settlement...so now he doesn't need to ever perform again! Am I right?

Tongue planted firmly in cheek!

Actually, he could. Statute of limitations is 2 years. It caused undue pain and suffering, and diminished enjoyment of life, since he couldn't do the commercial. Both requirements for compensatory damages are covered, which the courts don't cap. Looks like I learned something in that class after all!

To make light of the situation that would be one heck of a funny commercial..... a magician who is all beat up and doesn't know where he is talking about how good and magical the prices are on McDonalds chicken nuggets

Yeah that is too bad that you couildnt make it
