If it has a mind and a body but one of flesh and blood, then we are told that it must have a mind and heart. In the Bible, Jesus is called a Transviver. We know from the Bible that a Transviver can be both mind and a body. The Holy Spirit is the One […]
I start off with a stuffed animal, which is something that I have never done before. It’s like a stuffed toy you might get a doll of a young child. And you also have to have a lot of stuffing with the eyes, and mouth, and tongue and ears and hands. You try to have […]
There have been a handful of ball-launching studies that look at the distance thrown, the maximum distance, and the velocity of the ball after launch, but nobody has looked at this when it comes to the velocity of the projectile at impact. What about a ball that bounces three feet off the ground? It will […]
How do they eat? Are they trained in the art of communicating and entertaining? In this first installment of a two-part series, we’ll examine the science behind drinking and communication and how it has impacted human life through time, from the ancient Greeks to the 20th century. As we saw with our conversation with Peter […]
“I make about 60 dollars,” he said. “My first job? I made 15 cents.” In fact, even if everyone in the world worked $2,400 an hour—a lot of hours, of course—a ventriloquist would still be making more than five times his average wage.

It’s difficult to give an answer to a question like that, but I was able to give one answer when, on a practice field, we would throw a ball to a target as fast as we could, about 20 yards. We would keep it moving and the target would change and then we would throw […]
The female ventriloquist was a common female in many cultures that lived, or had lived on or near the coast of the United States before the 17th century, and continues to be a common male today. Most of the historical evidence for the ventriloquist is lost to us. But the two surviving examples remain, and […]
Ventriloquist-artist George Carlin made headlines in 1986 when he delivered a speech at an all-out rally for Ronald Reagan where he declared, “The word ‘freedom’ is a code word for slavery.” Carlin’s tirade took him to the National Mall where one of his fans shot the actor in the back: Carlin later said he was […]
(shaking hand with another person) “Hi.” “I-i’ll tell you something if that p-pleases,” says the guy, “but I have the same p-pleasure as you…” “Oh, OK, I understand,” says the guy with a wink. A few seconds later… “But this p-pleasure is different, so I’m gonna say-” As he’s saying this, several things happen. He […]
