Saturday Short Subjects: A Sorcerer Among Us

A powerful magician wanders the quiet woods at my city’s edge. With his expert skills Cyril the Sorcerer can make a carbon footprint disappear. Just watch! 



Cyril is the alter ego of East Rock “Resourcerer” CJ May. CJ uses magic to call attention to the environmental problems in our midst and, while he has our attention, to talk about changes we can make in our daily lives to mitigate them. Check out some of CJ’s tips here.

Earlier this week we learned that 2012 was the warmest year on record. What better time to harness some potent magic? 

CJ is available for gigs, either as Cyril, or in a suit. He is an extraordinary performer, but you don’t have to take my word for it


Why Saturday Short Subjects? Some readers may recall  being dropped at the movie theater for the Saturday matinee — two action-packed feature films with a series of short subjects (cartoons or short movies, sometimes a serial cliffhanger) sandwiched in between. Often the short subjects were the most memorable, and enjoyable, part of the morning. That explains the name. The reason behind these particular posts is that we are all short on time. My Short Subject posts should not take me as long to write or you as long to read (or try).
