On the Esoteric Tip By Alejandro Escabar

There was a magician who set up an elaborate alter to pray for rain. His town was besieged by a drought and people had come to him begging for help.

He took out his wand and raised it to the sky and said, "Oh great beings of the sky, give us of your sacred nectar." The skies opened and out poured gobs of honey and milk. "Oh great spirit," he cried, "Why am I such a fool?"

The skies cleared and a voice shouted from above, "Let them eat cake."

The magician cast his wand down and began blending the honey and milk and made caramels and gave them to the kids in the town who got so high from the sugar that they began dancing around wildly an screaming in ecstasy.

Suddenly the skies opened rain began pouring down on all the villagers. The people became wildly happy and proclaimed the magician to be the greatest magician of all time. The magician, however, felt extremely insecure in not being a very exact magician at all and spent the rest of his life playing Vegas, where he could at least be a fraud and no one would notice.

 Alejandro Escabar is an enigma.  And we like it that way.
