This was a delightful read. There's something magical about people coming together to make something happen and experience it together...

Maybe it was Soames, or maybe it was Soames spirit who convinced the actor specifically to do this in the first place. we may never know. All in good fun.

This capture was taken in 2010 it seems. Maybe the Atlantic went back and touched up their archives

Teller wrote this?! No wonder I loved it.

For more background, see this Esquire Magazine interview with Teller from 2010

(Scroll down to the paragraph that begins "When Teller was in high school")

Teller, as in Penn and Teller.
