Where Are You?

Day two. The MidSouth Paranormal Convention, Louisville, Kentucky. Spills and chills, and British cowboys (spooky).
Yep, a couple of friends convinced me this was the way to spend the weekend. So we just got in the car and drove (and drove and drove…which with the gas stuff going on has been a challenge). Checked into a generic hotel (okay, there was a small fear about bed bugs, but I think it’s all in my head - let’s hope so) and ready to hear some ghost stories. Well, see how well my self-hypnosis to help me with my fear of ghosties goes.
On a hypnotic note, yesterday magician Aron Houdini performed (amazing, but the whole dislocate the shoulder to escape from a straight jacket is gross, impressive, but gross). As well as being a magician, he’s definitely a stand up comedian. One of the things he kept telling those who volunteered was, “close your eyes, you are hypnotized.”
It was an interesting joke - particularly to a hypnotist, but I wondered about the rest of the crowd (not many hypnotists in the room). Why would that be funny to the rest of the crowd? Did I miss something?
Anyway…
So, there I am (incognito). Where are you on this fine Sunday?

Strangely enough, I was taping a hypnotist this afternoon. Paul Knight, a good friend of mine, was near town doing a stage show and I went over to tape it for him. (He has a new video camera and I wanted to check it out.) His show went well and we got the chance to talk for a while, a pleasure that I usually have to reserve for only every other month.

Very cool! Paul was also one of our 10 Question Hypnotist. I have never seen his show, but hope to change that in the future.
Thanks for answering!
