'Houdini on magic' is an excellent read. You will find anecdotes, little stories, bits of theory, advice, tips, and explanations of some wonderful illusions and escapology techniques as well as a bit of history. CL

I have loads of hobbies! I love to read, write short stories, act, watch films (I'm a huge film geek!), cook, and I suppose writing lyrics could be considered a hobby, although it is for my band so I guess it's more for constructive purposes than for hobbyist purposes :) CL

Looks absolutely awesome! CL

Ah, a fellow UK man- two pence. Indeed, you will produce (generally) around about a 'two pence' sized stigmata on your palm. However, that is MORE than enough! You've gotta consider- you're producing stigmata... Less just may be more! I use this all the time and can't recommend it enough! CL

I eat out as much as possible. I'm a huge fan of good food, but as a vegetarian, I generally eat quite well. I run when I can and do some torso work when I have the time. And yes, I do think a public speaking course and a basics in theatre will have a positive impact on your masgic- it...

My repertiore is ever-evolving, but my most frequently performed effects are probably... -DROP- the reverse visual elevator effect. -Chill, from the FreezerBurn booklet. -Sight unseen. A mental effect using my unreleased gimmicked deck, TouchPack. -Charming Chinese Challeng, Troy...

Ahem, if I may... Who cares whether the material fools you OR other magicians? How often do you perform (professionally- for a fee) for magicians? How often are you TRULY going to fool a magician anyway?? Why does that even matter to you? The fact is, Jays material is workable and strong, and...

Looks sweet, sounds amazing, but I'm telling you- It should have been called 'Read right hand!'... No? haha. CL

Sounds ace dude! CL

I'd say if it doesn't use a crimp or salt (you'll understand if you know what I'm talking about) you may just have something. CL

Hey man, no hard feelings over that queens thread thing, I can get a bit heated at times and don't believe in editing my attitude unless it's absolutely necessary or I'm absolutely wrong. But I can be a dork sometimes, I know :) CL

No, but I certainly think his opinion is more improtant than somebody who can't spell 'Turd'. As it happens, my favourite handling of the queens plot is Dave Forrests. He's developed the visuals of the queens to fit around an actual magic effect, where the queens do indeed vanish one by one...

And we are all MUCH more creative and talented than the originator of this effect, not to mention the fact that we have a much greater understanding of magic in general. Bill Goodwin- Pfft. Oh and in case it didn't come across there- SARCASM. Decent job on the effect FYI. It looked a...

Dee has hit the nail on the head- When Jay sent me the game I immediately thought 'Maybe not'. Jay is a friend though so I gave it some consideration and, after some sucess, I realised just how powerful this idea could be [I]Given the right circumstances[I]. I will say one thing on it-If...

Yes, It is fully explained in AoA. CL

Tim's industrial strength gaff, refers to a gaff card which allows for a very clean production of four coins. Thats all I shall say on the subject, due to the nature of the effect. CL

Thanks man, glad you like :) CL

Anybody trying to call my integrity into question should consider the facts. The 'exposure' on 24h is write-up's of our OWN created magic, which we have all rights to publish wherever we please (To clarify- we published it public access as a gexture of kindness, not to promote exposure- antbody...

I'm angry Dee! I'm ANGRY!! Seriously though, this dude is a moron. Oh, by the way... Did you hear FreezerBurn features some of the best ideas in magic? Haha. CL

Freeze the flow of water- working on it. Broken and restored glass- See Greg Wilson's 'Off base' from 'In action' and 'magic menu'. Laser pen burn- Just 'Ouch!'. In spec's hands colour change- I'm guessing it could probably be done with those alpha card things. Light snow on fire-...
