Obama's 'stupid' jab at Vegas - CNN
Who cares about a magician losing money?
Not even me. I'll be fine. My children
will go to college if they want. But,
when people cancel trips to Vegas, I'm
not the one who gets laid off. A few
less people go to the Penn & Teller
Theater, and we still do fine, but the
hotels lay off other people. It's the
people downstream of me who get punished
for the president's joke....

P.T. Selbit creates the magician’s
assistant, January 17 1921 - Financial
Times
One winter evening in London in 1921,

neck and ankles. Then, before a hushed
house, he attended to the grisly
business of sawing the crate in half.
The illusion created not only a
sensation but the enduring presence of
the magician’s lovely assistant –
someone who smiled serenely, no matter
what torture she was subjected to....
