    America's Got Talent WHAATTT?!?

    Pretty much this. The show can sometimes have the most talented people on there but usually they'll often say No to them and end up giving the 7 year old girl who sings off key and plays a mediocre piano the yes.

    You're 12 years old. Stop worrying about proper presentation and all that crap, Learn to enjoy your life and just perform effects that aren't dangerous to your health because you haven't been properly trained on how to do prepare them. Right now you may not be seeing any side effects. But due...

    Human Blockhead?

    I highly doubt you've been doing it for as long as you say. From your post and attitude, I know that you pretty much saw a video clip of it and decided to use the "method" you saw the guy use. (which isn't even a method at all.) This is an extremely dangerous stunt and I know that most...

    Going to USA.

    It's not worth it if you are just going to visit the country and don't have one in your city. Just go to Walmart or Target for your 12 pack of cards.

    Bending the real - Jay Sankey

    Like it's been stated the majority of the things on the DVD are just bar gags and pranks. Sankey tends to be really creative, the problem is that he doesn't test ANYTHING he puts out anymore. I'm sure when he used to work professionally he used to test stuff all the time before releasing it...

    Bending the real - Jay Sankey

    Pretty much, this isn't really a "magic" DVD. it's just Sankey trying to make more money buy conning people into buying a DVD with a new title. Most of the stuff on it is just pranks and bar gags (that are already up on youtube and have been for years before this was released.)

    Guy Hollingworth's Triumph

    He never said he was a beginner, just that it was his first book. For all you know he could have been into magic for years and just relied on DVD's and VHS.

    Cookie Cutter by Dan Sperry

    No, but if you get nervous and accidentally swallow the Oreo with the coin in it, then you'll end up slicing up your innards. So doing it with paper is the best bet. Just practice with a different colored paper than the Oreo.

    Carrying multiple decks around

    This whole topic is making me realize why a lot of people look at magicians as losers. Carrying around that many decks of cards and props on you is just redundant and silly. If and when you are going to perform, you should only have maybe one deck, maybe not even one.. Just borrow an old deck...

    Guess Who Got Glasses!

    I suggest you don't try to treat everything you do as "magic". Just wear the glasses that were proscribed to you like a normal person would. A lot of entertainers wear glasses and it really doesn't have any effect on what they do.

    Hecklers.

    Sometimes you gotta stand up for yourself and let a person like that know that you won't take crap from them. Sometimes they will cause them to actually shut up and other times it won't. But in the long run, you need to let those types of people know that you aren't weak and that you are in...

    What's the Deal with Bending the Real?

    I have a few Sankey DVD's and after a bit his humor and the fact that he doesn't really perform for real people anymore kind of takes away from him. I get tired of seeing him "perform" for the camera and not for real people.. Also when he started releasing new stuff all the time it got annoying.

    Practicing can get really really BORING!

    Simple solution: Take a break from it for awhile. Go have a social life where you don't bring a deck of cards with you all the time or any magic related props at all. Just go be a regular person for a few weeks, put all your magic stuff in the closet for awhile. This should give you a clearer...

    Blank Deck Routine

    You mean you made an effect has been around for decades... >_> You need to work on the ability to stop stating the obvious, and also need to work on a better presentation.

    What's in your wallet?

    KK, Money, ATM cards and other non magic related items.

    t11.bulletin - Special Event - Tonight at 11pm EST

    My guess is nothing but a video download that seems like a 1 on 1 and ends up being prank.. Simply due to the date.

    Instant Radio - What's the point?

    Instant Radio is more of a magical moment in a way that you are making a radio station play on literally any random object lying around. It doesn't have some "Special" meaning to it and it doesn't touch people's hearts. It's more of a weird cooky thing that most people will usually go home...

    Peter Eggink's Cased - and why I think it's rubbish

    Whats funny is that there already is a Sealed Card deck effect out there. Sure you don't re-seal the same deck, but both effects have much more meaning and more impact. I Know Shawn Farquar has one and so does Shane Black. Both essentially have way more meaning and impossibility to them.

    Extreme Burn 2.0

    It's explained on the DVD, the problem is that handing out money for examination looks REALLY suspicious and silly. I could se you doing it for friends, but for an actual gig. Just showing the bills on both sides would be the best thing to do, because you don't risk somebody trying to steal your...

    Which emails work for The Magic Cafe?

    The site does sometimes have good reviews and advice. The problem is that you end up with a major eye sore and headache trying to find anything, that it completely negates any of their professional advice at all. Not to mention the other major problems I've seen come from there, how badly...
