Happy birthday indeed!

Absolutely second this. Also check out Maximum Entertainment and Strong Magic (books related to the topic).

Some good thoughts so far. I would encourage you to think of exactly the target audience you want to hit. Be specific (more than just age range). Choose effects that fit for that category. As far as specific effects that are good for parlor, take a look at Bill Abbot's stuff. Great stuff, and...

Probably most peopel. People are familiar with both: contact lenses, and colored lenses (including white). It will still have some shock value, but not exactly magic.

All I did was mention it because of potential exposure. It was pretty easy to put two and two together. However, it can be very helpful to know the gimmick before purchasing. On the flip side, if a layperson/exposer is surfing to find the answer, they will find it here. (of course not exactly...

I'm curious as to why there is no response. Why wouldn't you want this?

Probably the slickest looking box for a deck of cards, ever.

From that review, I have a pretty good idea what it is. (lol though it just makes me want it more now!) I mentioned this thread to a mod already.

The DVD method works wonderfully for me. Try putting it into the tarantula (With the cap off) and press and hold the button. Blow on it quite hared a few times, and the end should come off the spool (If it is free). If it doesn't you may have to cut the thread and reload the spool with new...

Ambitious is really good when each time it builds on the last. Phase one: Simple. Card in middle - rises to the top Phase two: Repeat. Often people want to see it again because they feel they must have missed a move. Phase three: Make the process "easier" for them to follow. (Do it...

I'm assuming it is very important to not repeat this trick for people who have seen it before. It will be tough in a school to not perform it again for people who have already seen it. It only takes one to call you out and ruin all the reputation you've built with that effect. Thanks for...

Genesis is great. I have no real experience with cardistry/xcm and it was really good. It gave me lots to work on.

To be honest, High school sucks. Everyone is in a teenage popularity contest. It is so much better once you get to university and you are surrounded with people who are pursuing a higher education. The immaturity filters out. In fact most people after high school think magic is really neat and...

Yes there are tons of symbols on there that are used in the occult (I used to be into that too). But I wonder; how many of those symbols have their roots directly from the occult of if they are even older and were just adopted into the occult. I'm sure there is some of both, but it would be...

Well, finally got my package today. Thanks a ton T11. Great contest. Generous prize. I'm the last of the five, so now everyone has received their package. (My box was a bit banged up, but fortunately the cards were totally fine) Love the box. Very slick.

Finally got my box of Sentinels today. Prior to the podcast I thought maybe there would be a bonus for being first. ;) Thanks for an awesome hunt T11!

Ἑρμῆς ὁ Τρισμέγιστος This is the writing on the Sentinels. Once I translated it to English I found it means "thrice-great Hermes". It's a Egyptian/Greek God, that has historical connections with Hermeticism, writing (Thoth), and magic (Hermes). The reading I've been doing had revealed some...

heh, was trying to rush lol. Ty. jm

I know most of the guys here don't have a full on business, but for those who do, this may help you. If you have an email list or would like to start one for your clients, I found a free mailing service to manage your lists. Easy to use, great for those who are new to using something like...

That's awesome. Looking forward to tomorrows drop.
