1/ Eight years ago I had a few spicy / hilarious tweets ... which resulted in spending $20,000 or so on lawyers, and leaving MA. (look, I work HARD for my art, ok?) anyway, while that was all playing out, I got a knock on the door one day

2/ big black SUV parked in front of the house, 6'2" tall guy with very short hair standing on my porch. "Hi, I'm with the Boston Health Alliance blah blah blah and we're doing a survey. Can I ask you a few questions about your household-" me: Get the !@# off my porch, cop.

3/ The coincidence was just WAYYY too strong. Never had a Boston Health Alliance whatever knock on my door in 15 years, and then right as Crap Is Going Down, there's a survey. Which, guaranteed, question 12 would be about firearms or pot use or something. and then...handcuffs

4/ Which brings us to today. In the last 24 hours I've had two randos approach me on FB (btw, please don't try to find me and friend me there; I only use it to talk to locals re
#barnlaw stuff, and will delete the account once barnlaw is over).1 reply 1 retweet 65 likesShow this thread -
5/ First one is a local, claims to be "know of" my neighbors, and just has a few questions about the situation, like "what do you hope to accomplish?" so, neighbors doing a back channel approach through a "neutral" intermediary, trying to learn the goal so I'm honest >>>

6/ I give a more-in-sorrow-than-anger explanation of just how I begged neighbors time-and-again to not do their crimes, but they did, and now the barn is going to get torn down, bc that's what the law requires

I've literally toured the world as a magician/mentalist. Worked in Vegas with people you'd recognize on national TV projects. When you're in my biz long enough you realize there are no coincidences.

oh, very cool! I'm not an insane devotee of the area, but I have watched a few dozen episodes of P&T "Fool Us", saw them live once, enjoyed Ricky Jay back in the day, etc. Always impressed w the field - huge amounts of analytical thinking PLUS showmanship required.
