David Blaine and Magic

So, am I the only one?

Who does not just hate David Blaine and all his stupid undertakings but hates anything magical apart from Eurodisney?

It is supposed to be great, to be entertainment, we are all supposed to be in awe when they do their magnificent tricks but it just makes me very very very VERY uneasy.

Like... in the program about David Blaine tonight (Drowning Alive) they showed clips of him asking a person to think of a card and a minute later that person gets a call on their cell phone showing that particular card as the caller.

Very clever indeed.

So why does it leave me angry?

I suppose I feel fooled, embarrassed, left out, stupid, unable to work it out and I can't get ANY pleasure of something I do not 'get'.

It is probably very clever that he and all the other magicians are able to do these tricks but if I never ever see another magic trick again it will be too soon!
