| He wrote "Oops" in my art journal thingy. D'awwwWWw! Just like when David Sedaris drew a dead dog in my book. |
His lecture was witty, informative and very entertaining. He did magic, too. Yeah, Readers, inconceievable magic and when he said he was just doing a trick, I looked at him suspiciously. Skeptically, you could say. That was no trick, James "Grampy" Randi. I am convinced that he has lightning speed. Like Santa.... In fact he is just like the Santa from "Yes Virginia, There is a Santa Claus", except that he would tell Virgina to get proof; catch a flying reindeer; go for the prize. Hm.

| D'aww!!!! |
He is so passionate about science, so gracious about what he believes, he calls himself cute and handsome and he worries so much about people. I am immediately adding him to my collection of adorable old genius men to keep forever. The list also includes Victor Borge, BB King, Peter Faulk and Einsteiny. You just never mind with your judgy face.

Is that so weird? Honestly, I am trying to write a serious review, but I can't get past the adorable part.
Go seem him, but remember: I called fake grandpa dibs.

I'm not familiar with James Randi, but thanks to your unbridled enthusiasm I intend to look him up.
I was just stomping around my mother's house complaining that she's just the type of person to NOT have Veggie Booty and what kind of purposeful madness was this, blah, blah, blah. And then suddenly I felt compelled to visit you here; not in search of food but of solace. Lo and behold here it is. This post took me down three defcon levels and made me be kind to three old people today. You, my dear, work miracles.
James Randi rocks by the way.
I bet I could totally fit his cute little wizened head in my mouth.
Victor Borge is amazing.
Why am I so dumb that I don't know who anybody is? W
And just now I choked on my sandwich. My 9am sandwich. Don't judge.
That's frickin AWESOME! I wish I could have heard him give a talk. He's come back into popular light ever since Penn & Teller have been pimping him out on their show. I just love to know there is someone out there like him debunking pseudoscience and horseshit :-)
Grats Chelle!
Now I am jealous. The only autograph I've ever gotten was from the guy who was inside R2D2. Did you know there was a person in there? That is some kinky stuff.
