No one who’s read Frank Conroy’s “Stop-Time” would be fooled by the trick. It’s an unforgettable scene from the book.

Love that book, Colin! I think we had the same English professor at CSU who had us read that!

Gilbert Findlay, right? He was awesome — opened my eyes to so much good writing.

Oh I laughed alright. . . . pretty good.

My guess is there’s some kind of carburetor hole you have to plug with your fingers when you blow to avoid the prank.

I was assuming the first guy sucked on it, and there was some sort of stopper ball which kept him from inhaling the dust.

I suppose it’s a good thing it wasn’t loaded with deadly poison. The police wouldn’t suspect a thing!
