Oooo, It’s Magic

Posted by: shelby In: News


David Blaine tried to wow us two nights ago with his “Dive of Death” that turned out to be nothing more than a dive into boredom. If you didn’t see it, you didn’t miss much other than some sweet card tricks with John Mayer, Serena Williams, Orlando Bloom and Eli Manning. Blaine surely knows how to amaze people (apparently celebrities) close up with a deck of cards and a dollar bill, but the big stunts just end up being a big disappointment.

So, what’s my point? Well, it’s simply this: RADIATE08 will be the opposite of that…a non-disappointment.

You might be thinking, “Hmmm, what’s all this hype about RADIATE in Washington, D.C. on December 28 through January 1?”

To which I respond: “Good question, friend. The hype will lead you to a place that won’t shatter your illusions, that’s for sure.”

You: “Good, because David Blaine’s ‘Dive of Death’ television special certainly shoveled the disappointment into my life…I hope RADIATE won’t be like that.”

Me: “You who have ears, hear this: RADIATE08 will most definitely not shovel any kind of disappointment on you or your family. Instead, it will shower joy, happiness, glad emotions, spiritual growth and maybe some candy on you. Also, perhaps, some delicious tasting potato chips. Go forth and spread the news.”

Trust me, it’ll be awesome.
