Description
Carnac the Magnificent was a hilarious comedic role played by Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. Carnac was a "mystic from the east" who could psychically "divine" unseen answers to unknown questions. The act involved "divining" the answer to a question written on a card sealed inside one of the envelopes, announcing it to the audience, then tearing open the envelope to reveal the question. The question usually revealed a wonderfully silly pun.
I could not help but think of those great skits as I photographed my neighbor Andre and his pet ball python Hannibal. His Canada hockey jersey is a variation on Johnny's elaborate cape. :)
