TODAY'S TIP FOR AMATEUR MAGICIANS:

There is a right time, and a wrong time, to perform a trick involving the sudden appearance of a brassiere. Here's a good example of a wrong time.  

Fewer than 10 people sat in the audience. Four school committee members sat at the meeting table with the superintendent and the high school student representative. Two other school officials sat at another table.

No one in the meeting room at town hall laughed or made a comment about the trick.

The meeting was shown live on cable TV.
Brilliant!

Funny.

greatest part -- " The meeting was shown live on cable TV "

"Hey look, Mommy's on TV, why did that man take off her underwear?"

It has been an unrealized ambition of mine to convince a groom at a wedding reception to pull a brassiere out from under the bride's dress during the garter retrieval shtick.

I don't seem to be invited to as many weddings as I used to.

snork @ meanie -

...then he could stomp on the cups & shout 'Mazel Tov!'

Forty years ago all you needed for that trick was a bottle of Mateus Rose and a couple of wine glasses.

Given the current kultursmog, had this ended with a plea for safe sex, all probably would have been OK.

[Loudmouth]

Typical humor-challenged school bureaucrats wrapped typically too tight. Bra got their panties in a collective wad.

I don't understand. This always kills when I do it for my Sunday School class.
