It was opening night at the theater and the Amazing Claude was topping the bill. People came from miles around to see the famed hypnotist do
his stuff. As Claude took to the stage, he announced, "Unlike most
stage hypnotists who invite two or three people up onto the stage to be put
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 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 of eyes followed
the swaying watch, until suddenly it slipped from the hypnotist's
fingers and fell to the floor, breaking into a hundred pieces.
"Shit!" said the hypnotist.
It took three weeks to clean up the theater.
