Saturday Morning PSA of The Week: Never trust a magician.



Saturday mornings are known for two things: Saturday morning cartoons and Saturday morning public service announcements.

Today's PSAs are all information and no imagination--but yesteryear's? Those were full of drama, plot lines, and cameos from B-grade celebrities, all wedged into one minute or less of absolute fantasticness.

Consider this a trip back in time to when PSAs were sometimes worth watching more than the cartoon.

This week's PSA:  Magicians are playground pushers.





Random thoughts and questions:
1.)  Well, ain't this kid a know-it-all.
2.)  "Ampheta-MINES"?
3.)  The dealer has no time for shenanigans, even from cocky 8-year olds. "You can convulse yourself out of here."
4.)  How does the kid know the difference between a good trip and a bad trip on LSD? Is little Bobby a recovering LSD addict? Is this the underlying message?
