A wizard did it!

...and apparently, it cost him his job.

Quote

LAND 'O LAKES, Fla. -- A substitute teacher in Pasco County has lost his job after being accused of wizardry.

Teacher Jim Piculas does a magic trick where a toothpick disappears and then reappears.

Piculas recently did the 30-second trick in front of a classroom at Rushe Middle School in Land 'O Lakes.

Piculas said he then got a call from the supervisor of teachers, saying he'd been accused of wizardry.

"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.

Piculas said he did not know f any other accusations that would have led to the action.

The teacher said he is concerned that the incident may prevent him from getting future jobs.

Dear God,

Yours truly,

P.S.: By the way, Santa didn't deliver those hot Asian Supermodels I asked for last Christmas. Since you're kinda his boss and all, could you give him a nudge and remind him? Thanks.

Just a tad more difficult.
What can you do to end the hunger?
It's no surprise that many will die with the coming shortage of food
When there is no grain to feed the butchered cows
When there is nothing to feed yourselves...
Then you will see that money can't be eaten.

You know, I think America's reached the point where you can't even entertain somebody without offending somebody. All the guy was doing was showing off a simple magic trick. Sleight of hand, and that was all. And he gets fired?


America, you're too damn happy.
