Substitute teacher Jim Piculas does a 30-second magic trick where a toothpick disappears then reappears.
But after performing it in front of a classroom at Rushe Middle School in Land 'O Lakes, Piculas said his job did a disappearing act of its own.
"I get a call the middle of the day from head of supervisor of substitute teachers. He says, 'Jim, we have a huge issue, you can't take any more assignments you need to come in right away,'" he said.
When Piculas went in, he learned his little magic trick cast a spell and went much farther than he'd hoped.
"I said, 'Well Pat, can you explain this to me?' 'You've been accused of wizardry,' [he said]. Wizardry?" he asked.
Maybe he was dressed up like the annoying wizard from the annoying Verizon annoying commercial annoying with annoying those annoying sales annoying droids ?
Chalk one up for credulity, Harry Potter, superstition, and Creationism, not necessarily in that order.
At least they didn’t torture him or try to see if he floated, or burn him at the stake.
That’s what I call an enlightened witch hunt.
Beyond. Spineless. Stupidity.
yup, we’ve come a long way since Salem.
