Entertainment night at the senior center

(Editors note, writers block has creeped in, therefore here is another anonymous email I received, Although I would like to take credit for the enclosed, it was written by my friend anonymous. Enjoy)

It was entertainment night at the Senior Center. 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 on it's chain while quietly chanting, "Watch the watch, watch the watch, watch the watch. . .."

The crowd became mesmerized as the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its polished surface. Hundreds of pairs eyes followed the swaying watch, until, suddenly, it slipped from the hypnotist's fingers and fell to the floor, breaking into a hundred pieces.

"SH*T!" uttered the Hypnotist instinctively.

It took three days to clean up the Senior Center. Claude was never invited back to entertain.
