I am learning Queens on the Tricks DVD from Dan and Dave. The move when vanishing the 3rd queen, like a snap change sort of move... Is that taught in more detail anywhere on the DVD? Or is that the only part of the DVD they teach it? I am not sure what the move is called, sorry.

I am shocked that yesterday I was called by an agency asking if I would like to be a part of "Britain's Got Talent", they left me a message on my answer phone as I was at work, so I am going to call them back today. Unfortunately I have not got any time to take part in this one, as I am in my...

You guys are probably getting sick of me creating these threads about Blaine and Houdini. But, I am so confused about what to talk about, I am certain there is something more interesting about the two people than their life stories. I just need some thread between them both. I am presenting...
