    David Blaine

    Just curious as to what anyone thinks about David Blaine, the magician, who is now suspended up in a clear box in England going without food for 44 days as his current "stunt." For those of you in the UK especially, how is he being received there? Here is an article which describes a little of what is going on.

    Couldn't give a diddly squat about him.

    I think some people have way too much time on their hands. Amazing what people will protest.

    Pam, despite the number of people who go to see him etc, I still suspect there is total disinterest taken in him and what he is doing by most people, especially those who live outside of the capital. Speaking for myself, I think it is a totally pointless thing to do, but whatever lights your, or should I say his, candle!
    Here is one of the articles about it/him from the BBC website.

    He's not at all entertaining!
    There is no point to his "stunt" the little money he will raise will be spent on himself to get well again as he will sertainly be near death!!!!
    stupid man!!!!

    I LOVE him! I think he is one of the coolest magicians ever! I love watching him in TLC.


    Although, I wouldn't go see someone starving themselves, that is just pointless. But you know men....

    I read an article today that he is now down and in the hospital, training his body to accept food again. I think this was a nutty, silly thing to do. Why would he???

    Precisley Logan! My thoughts too.
    He's had a rough time here and I just wonder why he didn't do it in the USA?
    I just have no interest in him whatsoever.

    One word, MONEY. Or maybe two, publicity, also. I think it was pretty stupid, myself.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I think he's the stupid guy on the planet. How DUMB! What does he gain from killing himself like this? He's not normal. Not a normal person at all. Perhaps he isn't even a person. He's wierd. LOL

    my hope is that his antics don't influence children to pull stunts like that which can be deadly.

    I suppose I just don't understand what his "statement" was supposed to be.
