David Blaine Reads Minds AND Books

So, this one time, David Blaine stopped by the book store where I used to work. He came in with a motorcycle helmet and skinny blonde wearing some sort of towel dress. He walked around the store pulling books off shelves at random, He asked for a huge book wrapped in plastic that was some hundreds of dollars. I thought maybe he was having a party and needed some book spines to display--though he's quite magical, I don't think he's the sharpest tool in the shed. Anyway, he ended up with loads of books, and as he left, asked his towel girl if she had the keys to his bike as he couldn't find them. My colleagues and I wondered if he had perchance swallowed them as part of trick and then forgot about it.

Britney Spears Reads While Driving

A lion, a witch, and a frightening wardrobe. For some reason when I think of Britney Spears reading, the book is upside down or she's hiding a coloring book. I like that her new risk is reading at the wheel.
