Ring NO. 46, OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – Seymour Davis Ring
Meets 7:00 pm, 1st Monday of the month at the New Beginning Fellowship Church, 15601 S. Pennsylvania in OKC
LEE WOODSIDE, Secretary. Email: WoodsideLee@hotmail.com.
The first part of our March meeting was devoted to “Spring Cleaning.” A magic flea market allowed members to get rid of unused items and buy new magical treasures.
David Teeman showed three Time magazines that he had liberated from a decommisioned missile silo. He invited Jacob Brown to select one of the magazines. David riffled through the pages and asked Jacob to say “Stop.” David then asked Jacob to name any word on the page. He picked “Executive.” Handing Jacob a thesaurus, he asked him to look up the word; however, that page turned out to be missing. David motioned to an envelope that had been in sight the whole time. It contained the missing thesaurus page with the word “exective” circled.
Lee Woodside invited Derrick Beeson to turn the stem on Lee’s wristwatch to a random time. The time selected matched Lee’s prediction.
Michael King showed that a small transparent cube was obviously empty. A moment later, a Statue of Liberty appeared.
Jim Canaday performed a card trick in the hand of Cassandra Crowe. At the conclusion of the trick, there was a spider on the back of Cassandra’s wrist.
Bruce Rodesney showed that he could command an apple with a cord through it to stop at any point on the cord. He then showed us the gimmick he had made to acomplish this miracle and demonstrated how to end “clean.”
Cassandra Crowe invited Derrick, Jacob, Shaun and Ashlee to join her “on stage.” She talked about dreams and showed pages from her dream journal. She then asked that each participant to draw something from one of his or her dreams. The plaques were mixed up and handed back to Cassandra, who placed them writing side down on the table. As she picked up each of the first three plaques, she commented on the drawing and then handed it back to the person she thought had drawn in. She was right in each case. She then began to draw her impression from the fourth participant. Her drawing matched the one on the fourth plaque.
The names of the performers were placed into a hat and one name was drawn. Lee Woodside became the proud owner of “Pancho the Pickin’ Duck.”
