Watch Me Entertain Myself!

Sacha Guitry once said, "You can pretend to be serious, but you can't pretend to be witty." Oh yes, I'm the great pretender.

From The Mouth Of Babes

We attended this children’s party in Bulacan. My cousin’s first-born celebrated his first birthday, so it was a major bash. They even hired a magician to entertain the kids. Part of the magician’s act to warm up the audience of unruly, hyperactive kids was to ask them some questions.

Magician: “O mga kids, bakit tayo nandito?”

Kid 1: “Para kumain!”

Magician: (after momentarily being thrown off-guard) “At pagkatapos kumain, ano’ng susunod?!”

Kid 2: “Balot!”

Much later, the magician tried to impress his audience with a series of magic tricks with a deck of cards. Because the tricks required sleight of hand, the magician decided to impress the kids.

Magician: “Kids, para saan ang malilikot na daliri?”

Kid 3: “Sa Walter Mart!”

I tell you, those kids were cute but what are their parents teaching them?
