He looked at me, he said, "zaleeeee..."
I was turned to the TV, eventually forced way (about two steps to the left) to google.com where I found this:
Update!: According to an article in "The Peninsula" (Qatar's Leading English Daily) "Blaine has rashes on his body, and his heart has now adapted to life under water which makes his return to the outside more complicated."
I saw something on TV about David Blaine - the magician - who was trying to beat the record of underwater breatdth holding or... what have you... (google failed to answer my reason for oogily-googiling to begin with-) but, in this "special" (?) on the television, David Blaine was voice-overing his "experiences" practically minute-by-minute... fascinating.
And sometimes, we find a diamond of a show.
So they trapped him in a globe-ish human-sized fish-tank, litterally locked in, and let the stop watches begin... But, I can remember now, him talking about it while watching it... the remarks about time...
It's cool. I mean, here is a man who made me believe he popped-out and then popped-back-in, some girl's pearly teeth or, tooths, should I say- just a minute before. They were fresh out of braces, smile teeth. He pulled out two of them, from the smile - and we saw blood, a close-up even. Not thirty seconds later, he popped them back in. And there was that crazy smile, all smiling, how did it do it?
It almost makes you believe he did do it, so the tooth... sorry, tooths would be able to survive (for some weird delusional time-dimension) just in the nick of it though, or something! anything! Incredible. Oh Look, you're still thrown back in your couch, practically thinking your at one of the best movies of your life (plus your couch is alive) - with thrillish entertainment at an eye-engulfing level which rarely (can i say?) happens... so??
Ah, magic... of course. David Blaine - I like him, and I like what he had to say. Except one of the other things, besides the incredible voice-overs of information during his episode under water, holding his breath - was my friend here telling me, or maybe it was me - yeah, me... telling me that David Blaine wants to be some water-living creature. He doesn't even want to breath our air. For,
"Air," he laughs, "is for the gills, baby," delicately sipping on an ever-lasting supply of water. He made it.
Of course, the real David Blaine never said this; it's just extremely obvious if you can live to tell about it. In my personal opinon,
"David Blaine cracks me up," which is one of my utmost compliments - after I said this, he looks to me...
"zaleeeeee..."
"oh, I'm sorry... I forgot - he's the second," he knows all about my compliments.
"that's right, but look - zal... look at his hands," whispering, pointing....
"...interesting" I... think I said?
OH MY GOD, his hands were seriously a form of fish. I've had an epiphany... oh, finally. And David Blaine is my hero; therefore, I conclude Gooooogle isn't... at all bad. I did find that sweet update above from a website called, http://thedailydump.blogspot.com/2006/05/i-know-how-david-blaine-feels.html, and that was worthy of copy-paste, especially if you continue to read on finding helpful comments like I did:
"I'm confused. If David Blaine's heart had adapted to life underwater, wouldn't he have been able to beat the record? Who is the world record holder? Why hasn't Yahoo found this merman? Now that would be newsworthy. "
Anyway, like I was saying, google had pointed me here- (OH how I hate getting entangled and swamped on the internet...) so you gotta figure finder's fee. Except, I wouldn't expect a straight answer after I asked it, "david blaine was trying to beat whose underwater record?" either, like I was some kind of game-show host-...
Which, I wish I was, so at least guesses could get me closer to what is going on with that man. David Blaine, to epidemic acheivement he soars, wildly gracing on, to the next hole in a hat, Mr. Blaine. .. and so forth.
Yet - If to find out, out of everything... the underwater was just him in a crazy world-shaped tv - with whatever they could do to make it look under-water, handcuffed and suffering then... watch out. Cus I'm a witch, and I can't see witches and magicians - oh wait... yes, yes I can.
Well, whatever - let's just say my faith in his pursuit is what stopped me from thinking of other ways to punish him... and I don't go around on a broom or anything.
who am I kidding? I just want to see more. Cus that's some entertaining shit worth-wild. That's like turning on the tv and rating the commercials higher above the program in-between, the paiiiiiid program. I mean, tv-watching can get rather horrible after some time - yes, so these types of shows are nice. and google is good.
But who the hell holds the record that David Blaine can't beat?
and was he too... magical? dolphinish, like people can be elephant-tity?
Was he enticing? awesome? Is he still around, can I watch him do card tricks?
I can't wait to watch street magic.
=)
