Friday Video: “Pen & Teller: Ouija”

YES!  TGIF!
Even though I have a lot of writing and work to do on the weekend, I’m still really excited that the weekend is here. There’s a strange electric feeling buzzing through the city. I think it’s carried over from the the NBA championship and Huitzilopochtli_tellerianomixing in with the energetic vibe of the World Cup.  I woke up this morning to catch the early soccer matches, ate some good breakfast and now getting ready right now to leave to go watch Spain Vs. Chile in a few minutes. And this weekend? U.S.A plays on Saturday and Mexico on Sunday…..I’m not a praying man, but Sunday I’m waking up extra early and lighting some incense and having a one-to-one with Huitzilopochtli.

Anyways, as excited as I am, I didn’t forget about today’s Friday Video.

Growing up, I always heard stories about the Ouija board and its dangers. Stories about homes becoming beacons for evil spirits after a night of innocent Ouija board playing or people’s beds levitating after keeping a Ouija board in the house. The stories varied and people from all walks of life had at least one story to tell about the boards. So it was no surprised that I grew up with a preconceived notion that playing with these things was as dangerous as playing Russian roulette.

Pen & Teller’s “Bullshit!” tackles on the Ouija board. This should be a good one for you guys. I don’t know where I stand with the Ouija board. I think any inanimate object can be used as a “spirit board”.  It doesn’t have to be a Ouija.

Fact or fiction, all I know if that I would never try it.
