Yesterday I watched parts of the "David Blaine - Dive of Death" in between news and the presidential address on the bailout...

It seems that the two events are connected:

Shaking his head, Blaine said the plan was for him to drop just a few feet before being whisked away by a harness attached to a batch of helium-filled balloons.

"But because of the president's speech, my show was delayed 15 minutes and all of the wind picked up," he said.

Fans seemed both delighted and disappointed by Blaine's grandiose attempt.


So not only has Bush caused a war and a hurricane, now it seems he hates magic also!

This economy thing is worse than I thought...

WOW! Who knew he was also such a great prognosticator of Manhattan Island surface winds? :eek:
