Not only is he alive, he's making big money off the Mossad as a psychic spy and investors hire him to psychically detect new oil fields. He owns an island, and a museum. Located in the Jaffa port in Tel Aviv, this museum is a renovated Ottoman-era soap factory featuring a vast collection of his memorabilia. It holds the Guinness World Record for the world's largest steel spoon (53 feet long) and houses items that once belonged to Michael Jackson.
He once tried to psychically block Brexit.
He was no Kreskin, who was amazing.
Let's all concentrate and psychically bend his big spoon!
Well that's quite a ride.
Man, it's a shame having morals pays so little...
From where is this?
I don’t recall the episode, but that’s David Mitchell looking awkward with a woman inadvertently challenging him not to be a wanker with a superiority complex, so I imagine it’s Peep Show.
I just wanted the series name. Thanks I will have a look. I see that is a comedy, and I tend to watch British comedy a lot, starting with Allo Allo, keeping up the appearances and the IT crowd. Lately the comedy Central from Poland has the one foot in the grave.
It’s very good if you don’t mind the subgenre of pathologically narcissistic main characters, like Seinfeld or Always Sunny. It’s also a clever send-up of the Friends era of shows about “hip” young urbanites.
I do loved Seinfeld, but not much Always sunny in Philadelphia. Interesting thanks again. Btw I loved only fools and horses, some good lines in there.
"Charlatan tries desperately to cling to relevance" is a more apt headline.
Has anybody blown James Randi's ashes into his eyes yet?
Any time Uri Geller is near a spoon, sprinkle some of James Randi's ashes around it. Like kryptonite.
Imagine if he actually believes it. He could just be delusional.
I honestly didn’t think he was still alive.
You expect me to believe the aliens on P7X-377 care at all about the World Cup?
Not to be that guy, but calling that planet system by the P word is seen as derogatory in this day and age. Please refer to it by the name □□□□-□'□□. You may not be able to pronounce it correctly if you only have two orifices in your face that can emit sounds, but the locals will appreciate the effort.
well, the enemy of my enemy, right?
Hold on, 'alien crystal skull' is my porn name.
Dan Akroyd's, too.
