What do you get when you multiply all the real numbers? (kind of a trick question) My friend in school used to be able to turn her eyelids inside out. How do you do this trick? Is out there some site where they tell you for free how magicians do their magic and they tell you how to do it (maybe cardtricks or something)? He once was arrested and tortured under command of his father for religious reasons. Sorcery and magic were attributed for his 'cures' and he was sentenced to death. The first method was not successful, although a 'hot' alternative seemed to do the trick. Later, in the 1500's, certain European countrymen performed a ritual beside a statue of his honour. Who was this person, how did he die, what is the signifigance of this ritual, and what might an alarm clock have to do with all this?
