So would you say the same thing about a babe Ruth base ball card? I mean, after all it is just a piece of paper. The same thing can be said about Action Comics #1 or Detective Comics #1 both of those are basically just really old pieces of paper. Yet they are worth 100 grand or so.

They are very rare brand of cards that have a stock that tends to make them last a lot longer than most cards.

Personally I think most card to wallets are either too big and too silly looking. They bring some unneeded attention to themselves. If I were you, I'd get the real mans working Card to Wallet. I think you can find it on elmwoodmagic.com. It looks and works like a regular old wallet. Also it...

Learn the two handed shift from Erdnase (the book is like 10 bucks off amazon.). You can learn the steals also from there but are in more detail in Card College.

Where did that attitude come from? All I said was that not all card plots are the same. Yeah, if you make a broad generalization about them, then maybe. But that's like all movies are the same and all books are the same because they all involve characters and people and or events. I think...

Arguing on an internet message board isn't really going to change the world. If you want to change the world, you gotta start with yourself first. As far as the public thinks of magic exposure. I am pretty sure they could care less about it, because it doesn't affect them at all. They will...

I doubt that otherwise he wouldn't get hired for gigs. I also doubt kids are really exposing things simply because they want to show that magic is nothing new. Otherwise they wouldn't be doing it themselves. I mean come on. Why would they learn something just to expose it. It doesn't make...

Eh, people who say that usually are trying to justify what they are doing. They'd rather not believe they were doing a dick move and pretty much ruining their own careers. (which is exactly what the Masked magician did. I seriously wonder how many people re-hire the guy after he's already told...

You know, I've always wondered why some guys would say that line in front of their wives. It's like they are purposely trying to ruin their own marriage with a tasteless joke.

Uh No, Out of this World is not a pick a card effect. Ace Assemblies are also not pick a card tricks, Nobody is picking card unless you are doing A Collectors routine. Otherwise, No.

"Can you make my wife disappear?" "That's what a Divorce Attorney is for."

Well if you want you could simply purchase a deck of cards at the local grocery store or something.

I believe the term for these kind of people is just a "Tough Cookie" as Eugene Burger would say. REAL hecklers are far and few between and most people won't encounter them, and when or if they do. It will be like a once in a lifetime deal. Those are people I call The Real Life Version of Biff...

Wait, Thumb Tips were in Night at the Museum? I don't exactly recall anything with a thumb tip. Tho at the time I wasn't really interested in magic. But I don't think I saw anything that looked like Ben Stiller doing a bill switch.

Magic is still a "brotherhood." just that from what I have read (the Magic Cafe mostly.) A lot of the time I see the supposed "mentors" in magic bickering over who took who's routine or who took who's sleights or whatever. Now this doesn't happen all the time. But I have seen a lot of it on The...

He could build his own car and "refine" it over time. Tho that wouldn't do him any good sense he probably doesn't know how to build a car and it would be too costly trying to get the right parts. Why not just go and buy an already made working one and save yourself the trouble. The problem...

I don't think anybody here has the proper tools and equipment to manage it. I suspect most here would just sit it on the shelf or something and then if it fell out.. You'd be screwed.

Ironically there is also another effect called Believe by Aaron Delong I think.

The only one actually hurting magic is the guy who is improperly learning the routine or sleights. Now I myself don't like pirating, but if I was to have my choice of the two. I'd most likely pirate something to check it out. If I liked the DVD or routine, then I'd go out and buy it. The...
