(Non) Disappearing Act
I don't understand all the hubbub about how magician and illusionist David Copperfield tricked some teenaged robbers into thinking he didn't have anything worth stealing.
I mean, if the guy's as good as he claims to be, this should have played out much differently:
"Huh?! Where'd he go?!"
"Don't know, man...one second he was right here, and the next...nothing!"
"Yeah...and where'd the baby squirrel come from, dude?"
"This is freakin' me out, man...I'm outta here."
Although, shouldn't mine have actually read:
"I don't want to see you until you really learn to make yourself disappear."

Your teaser read:
Come see me when you really learn to make yourself disappear.
That reminds me of: I've been an amnesiac for as long as I can remember.
