Double Feature! "The Nigerian Spam Scam Scam" & George Hrab

When actor Dean Cameron got the email we've all seen -- "Please help me, I am the beneficiary of $30 million!" -- he didn't delete it like the rest of us would. Instead, he responded in kind, taking the spammers for a ride that lasted well over a year. He turned this misadventure into a hilarious one-man show that has received accolades from the Los Angeles Times to Penn Jillette.

Also, musician, skeptic, and podcaster George Hrab will entertain the crowd with his outstanding mix of humor, tunes, and critical thinking. This is a must-see presentation.

Saturday, July 11, 7:30 - 10:00 p.m.
The JREF Talent Show
Are you talented? We're skeptical, so you'll have to prove it. We're throwing a good old-fashioned talent show, to see how well skeptics can do whatever it is they do. Sing, juggle, prestidigitate, tell jokes: show us what you've got. To apply, send a brief email outlining your talent to Alison Smith: alison@randi.org (please cc A B Kovacs as well: abkovacs@randi.org). Applications will be accepted until May 1, and finalists notified before June 1.
Only 10 applicants will be chosen, so make sure you practice! The Top 3 winners will receive prizes, and the others will receive the undying devotion of their fellow JREFers, or, more likely, simply be made fun of.

Added bonus: George Hrab is MCing!
