It was entertainment night at the Lufkin Texas Senior
Center and over 300 seniors came to see the show.
Claude the hypnotist exclaimed: 'I'm here to put
you into a trance; I intend to hypnotize each and every
member of the audience.' The excitement was almost
electric as Claude withdrew a beautiful antique pocket
watch from his coat. 'I want you each to keep your eye
on this antique watch. It's a very special watch.
It's been in my family for six generations.
He began to swing the watch gently back and forth while
quietly chanting, 'Watch the watch, watch the watch,
and watch the watch...' The crowd became mesmerized as
the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its
polished surface. Hundreds of pairs of eyes followed
the swaying watch, until, suddenly, it slipped from the
hypnotist's fingers and fell to the floor, breaking
into a hundred pieces.
'Shit!' said the Hypnotist.
It took 3 days to clean up the Senior Center.
