We have something special for all of you tonight - ladies and children, if you'll step down to the other end of the tent, the master of magic will mystify you with feats of legerdemain.

And now, men, I want to draw your attention to something special. We don't advertise this on the outside, we CAN'T advertise this on the outside - it is an added attraction and there is an additional fee to see it, but after you've seen it I know you'll agree that it's well worth the small charge, because this is something you will remember to the end of your days, and it's not for women and children.

This is the one you've heard your neighbors talking about - behind this curtain you will see Doug Higley, certified to be the oldest man in the world. He is positively alive, and you will see him just as we found him in his native habitat, surrounded by savage and mysterious creatures like the Chupacabra, the Jackalope and the Giant Rat, many of which are on display elsewhere on the midway.

Noted scientists have studied him, and they have all concluded that there is no scientific explanation for his survival, no way to understand his habits - and you men will soon understand what I mean, because when I throw this live chicken into his cage, you will see him leap upon it, bite its head off, and drain every drop of its blood with the same relish as you or I would suck the juice from an orange.

The fee is just 25 cents, and these few meager pennies are the sole means of support for his mother and her 16 normal children back in Mysore, India. Those of you who dare can see him now, and those with nervous dispositions or weak hearts, I'm going to ask that you step back with the women and children - pay the gentlemen standing on either side here and join me behind the curtain, because it's feeding time right now! Follow your neighbors, they know where they're going, they're going inside, for the thrill of a lifetime - [*rattle of chains, growls*] - quiet down, Doug, it's feeding time, I'm coming right now!

Thanks all! (Ross, you hit the nail on the head...yesterday we went to SeaWorld and I was out of control...I put Mustard AND Ketchup on my Hot Dog!)

Anyway...all the kind words and thoughts are very much appreciated.

Doug,

Sorry I missed your B-Day... Another year younger.

And I haven't forgotten about that stand alone Zibit... still in the queue.

Maybe it'll be a birthday present - I hear you have one comming in a while...
