    Claude the Hypnotist

    It was entertainment night at the senior citizens' center.

    After the community sing song led by Alice at the piano, it was time for the Star of the Show- Claude the Hypnotist!

    Claude explained that he was going to put the whole audience into a trance. "Yes, each and every one of you and all at the same time." said Claude.

    The excited chatter dropped to silence as Claude carefully withdrew from his waistcoat pocke a beautiful antique gold pocket watch and chain.

    "I want you to keep your eyes on this watch" said Claude, holding the watch high for all to see. "It is a very special and valuable watch that has been in my family for six generations" Said Claude.

    He began to swing the watch gently back and forth while quietly chanting "Watch the watch --- Watch the watch ----Watch the watch"

    The audience became mesmerised as the watch swayed back and forth. The lights twinkling as they were reflected from its gleaming surfaces.
    A hundred and fifty pairs of eyes followed the movements of the gently swaying watch.

    And then, suddenly, The chain broke!!! The beautiful watch fell to the stage and burst apart on impact"

    "CRAP!!" exclaimed Claude.


    It took them three days to clean the Senior Citizens' Center.

    And Claude was never invited to entertain again!

    It might have been interesting to see what happened if he'd yelled "fuck!" instead.

    The chiropractors would have seen a sudden income boost, that's for sure.
