A hypnotic event...

The entire Guthrie Gang went to the family-appropriate version of a hypnotist show tonight (Rodney and I went to the 18+ show last night, and had a lot of fun in the audience.). To prepare the kids for what they might see, I had them watch the video of me being hypnotized at the 1999 Yuma County Fair.

Will thought he might want to be hypnotized, but then we found out participants had to be 13 years or older. So, I offered to go and the boys were quite enthusiastic about that. Rodney was less so. But here are the highlights Rodney and Will caught on their iPhones:

And before the whole "weak-minded" thing starts to be a joke, a Stanford study actually found that highly-intelligent, open-minded people who can make decisions easily and prioritize well are often the easiest ones to hypnotize. ;)
