Last Saturday I was doing mentalism for one of the top 100 corporations on the east coast. I did a gig for them last year, they wanted me again. The corporation's vice-president is the one contacted me. The contract was for me to do 45 minutes for $5,500 (I agree it is low, but they had me previously.)
A drunk man in the audience kept being a heckler towards me. I was getting very frustrated. It caused me to mess up on a few of my lines. I did approach him to ask him to be quiet during my performance. He kept being a pest. I approached him again holding my breath. He grabbed me around the collar. I said "You better let me go." He would not. I shoved him off of me. He tripped and fell on the floor. The vice-president said to me "Pack up and get your stuff out the hall. We are not paying you anything." I told him it was the drunk guys fault. The vice-president said "That is the CEO of our corporation." I grabbed him grumbling you better pay for this or I am pressing charges. A few others employees pushed me against a wall. I was throwing punches only because I felt threatened. Three security guards arrived in the room and held me down restraining me. The police arrived and arrested me. I had to get a bail bondsman to let me out of jail. What do you think I should do? I was thinking about apologizing to the vice-president and CEO. Maybe if I forget about the money, they will not press any charges towards me. At least I know I am never going to do anymore mentalism gigs for them anymore. I never felt this angry in all my life. Darn with those people. |

Is this for real, or April Fools?

Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the Meketrex Supplicants they chose a new form for him... that of a Giant Sloar! many Shubs and Zulls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Sloar that day I can tell you."

Yea it was two years ago, Kannon.
April Fools to the ones who thought the story was real. It never happened. So many of figured it out because you know I can control my temper. The reason I posted it late is because I had a summons to appear as a juror yesterday morning. Next, I had personal things to catch up with. Next year I will post it early like the previous times. In a way I did get some of the ones who thought I was going to post it early. You came looking for the thread in the morning, but thought I forgot about. Thanks guys. |

I was also looking forward for another April fool gag from Mike and thought that he forgot this year. But he came through again! LOL
