What's your first name?

Rob.

 

Yeah, Rob, I can tell. That's not a very good trick! How long have you been at this?

I've been seriously doing this since my birthday in March. I've been working with magic since I was four. I'm 12 now.

 

You look like you're making pretty good money here.

[smiles] Yeah.

 

What do you do with it?

I save some and with some I buy some new tricks. Because it's fun for me and it's fun for them.

 

Right. Invest back in the magic. I see. That's a sound strategy. Can you saw women in half?

No, but I know how to.

 

Do you practice that at home when nobody's looking?

No, I don't have a giant saw or anything.

 

Maybe you'll buy a giant saw soon.

Maybe. Maybe that's the next step.

Health and Human Services Public Hearing

“One of the most heart breaking things for me is the great number of homeless veterans,” said Ralph Cooper, executive director of Veterans Benefits Clearinghouse. “As you can tell, I’m getting older and my gray hair tells the truth. You can’t imagine how painful it is for me to talk with men and women who served in Vietnam, men and women who are young, coming back from Afghanistan and Iraq and they are homeless. How disgraceful is that?”
