Does anybody here believe in reincarnation? Yes! Yes? Welcome back.
Okay.
I used to have a way of picking volunteers so no one would think that I had a plant or a stooge in the group, somebody who worked with me in the show. I don't do that. But what I would do to prove it, I would take a ping pong ball, turn my back to everyone, throw it over my shoulder, whoever would catch it would come up and help me. I'd often find though the person would take the ping pong ball, put it in their pocket. I'd turn around and everyone would say, we didn't see any ping pong ball. So I don't use the ping pong ball anymore. I'm looking in the mirror getting myself all psyched up to come up here, and this woman came up to me and said, what are you doing? And I said, well, I'm just getting ready to go out and do my show. And she said, well, do you normally get nervous before you go out and do a show? I said, no, I've been doing this for years. She said, then what are you doing in the women's washroom? Okay, this is gonna go over my closed left eye, so please everybody don't do what the last audience did. Don't leave. Where are you?
Here.
Padded shoulders or No.
Oh, that is your shoulder, right?
Okay, that's a good thing. The person who brought this up, say hello. Hello. You're a ventriloquist? Say hello. Hi. Hi. I can tell by your voice you have a very feminine nature. I am sensing something. Uh, was this a gift? Yes. It's a watch. Yeah! If I have a really surprised look on my face, it's 'cause my eyebrows are gone. I go to the front desk and they didn't have my room ready, so they put me in the honeymoon suite. Oh yeah, it was great. Spent the first night with a nice couple from Chicago.
That was a great show.
Mind-blowing. Very funny guy. It was heart-pounding.
You know, it's really funny. Had a great time. It was fantastic.
Just nailed it every time. It was actually shockingly good. The person who introduced me did so by explaining to everyone That not only was I an entertainer, but that I had made $1 million in the real estate market last year back home in Vancouver.
Yeah!
So I came up quite proudly and explained that essentially that credit was correct. However, it wasn't Vancouver, it was Seattle. It wasn't the real estate market, it was the stock market. It wasn't me, it was my brother. It wasn't $1 million, it was $100,000. And he didn't make it, he lost it. Open your eyes, you'll see the audience naked. When I say reverse, you will realize that you're naked. Can you tell me why you're hiding?
I don't have any clothes on.
Reverse.
