Last Friday I took my kids out to a TINY reseraunt for a fish fry. While getting ready to leave I made an animal for a youngster who was sitting close to me. The waitress requested I make one for a few other kids who were there which I was more than happy to do. Next a gentleman asked if I would make a teddy bear for his wife and something special for their guest who was celebrating her birthday, which I did.. Alas, he gave me a $10.00 tip, then a few more came rolling in. $15.00 in all, and I just blew a total of 10 or 11 balloons !!!! I LIKE IT. To top it off, the first tipper and his wife own their own business and have asked if they could call on me to blow balloons as some of their parties. ( Need they have asked?, and they don't even know I do magic yet) Also as I was leaving another gentleman approached who teaches SMALL (5 to 7 kids) speach classes in the city school system who would also like to hire me for small parties for 'his kids'. This sport of twisting bubbles is becomming more fun all the time !!!
