    I remember seeing this guy as a kid, and wondered if the work was "rigged". Surely, I could not do it, and knew no one else who could. Do you remermber this kind of act? Amazing!

    I do not recall that,. but very vividly remember Senor Wences, with his talking heads, one grouch in a box, who also said, "Close the door!". Wences painted his thumb and index finger to look like a face, a little girl's, who "talked" coquettishly.

    Ha! Never thought of it as sounding like "sour right", because as Slavic descent, we understood Wences was saying "Tsor-rright", with the "r's" trilled as is sometimes done by the English also.
