The Magician Elder Norman and His Lovely Assistant Sister Norman

Elder Lee gets the hooey stick to change directions. 

Our big Staff & Senior Couples' Christmas Party was held today, and because he can speak Cantonese, Craig was asked to be the Master of Ceremonies for the talent show portion of the party. Not one to let an opportunity pass him by, Craig figured he should exhibit a little showmanship in between introducing the acts, so he came up with a few Cub Scout-quality feats to entertain the audience.
He pulled out a hooey stick and demonstrated how he could make the propeller change directions by having people who had birthdays in December say "Hooey!" People seemed amazed.
He had Elder Taylor volunteer for the next magic act, where Craig cut Elder Taylor's tie into pieces, assuring everyone that he would restore the tie back as good as new. He hemmed and hawed and had Elder Lee come up and say "Hooey!" into the microphone, but was unable to get the tie back into one piece, to the surprise of the audience. It was hilarious.
When he asked for Elder Warmoth to allow him to perform magic on Elder Warmoth's watch, many audience members yelled "No!" and were horrified when Craig put the watch in a bag and pounded it with a hammer. Naturally he couldn't get that back together, either.
Everyone enjoyed the displays of talents, such as singing and hula dancing, in addition to fun group games, as well as lots of tasty food, for a memorable Christmas celebration.
