Hey guys hopefully you find this as amusing and concerning as I did. Not to long ago I was at a friends house for a party. I knew a few of the younger people there but most of them were family members of the owners of the house. There was however a guy slightly younger than me who came with one of my friends. Throughout the night I performed effects here and there and at one point I performed SMOKE. The guy who came with my friend only saw the ending and started talking to me about the effect after I finished. He started off by telling me how his friend was a magician like me and all of the "amazing" stuff that he has. At first I was enjoying the conversation. That was until he informed me that his friend performs an effect that has the same ending as mine. He then went on to reveal SMOKE to me like it was nothing. He even went into how to perform it and the complete method. Thankfully nobody cared enough to listen in on him as they were engaged in their own conversations. And even more so that he only saw the ending of the effect which allowed me to act shocked by his friends method. I found a way to end the conversation and walk away. Although i'm sure that if I kept talking to him I could have left that night knowing every effect that his friend does. So to my fellow magicians I have a favor to ask. If you for some crazy reason feel the need to reveal something to a friend or you will explode please make sure that they have some sense and wont go around blabbing to everyone who has a deck of cards. Or better yet just plain keep your mouth shut!
