Ok. The hypnotist's name is Jac Rene. The wife and I went to Friday night's show and had a blast. He mentioned that Sunday night's show is his "Xtreme Naughty" show, and everyone that came to the Friday show gets $5 off admission. Sold.

The Xtreme Naughty Show - He invited 10 volunteers onto the stage (same as he did on Friday). Five guys, five ladies. The initial part of the show is centered around getting them under and eliminating those who aren't quite there. Luckily, there were some people out in the audience who were available to replace those that didn't make the cut. The suggestions were pretty tame at first..but things got rolling when he told the female participants that when he shakes their hand, they are going to have the most intense..umm..sensation that they have ever had, and he told the male participants that they will have the worse case of jock itch that they have ever had. He started with a girl that my wife and I had pegged as our favorite..my oh my.. One of the guys had an itch so severe, that the hypnotist suggested that putting saltines into his pants was the only way to cure the itch. The dude went for it, and started sharing the crackers with the other guys!!

Another highlight of the show was the exotic dancing bit. Some of the guys were REALLY into it, and even went out in the audience to give the ladies lap dances. The girls were good too, but nowhere near as entertaining as the guys were. That is, until the hypnotist asked them to show him their favorite positions.

There was a lot more that happened at the show, too much to summarize, really. It was a freaking blast!!

"Cm'ere Jackie there's something that I want to show you..."










Which reminded of an old joke...














What is the most common word said by pot smokers?














Anyone?














Ear.














Yes, ear...














Take a big hit...














Need to get the next persons attention...














"ere"






I'm sorry... I've been telling that joke since the 70's.
