It was amazing! We made a list of all the things we wanted to see and did it all. Were stayed five days and crammed it full. I recommend the city bus tours. Great way to see the area in a reasonable amount of time. Worth the money. We went to a yankee's game, saw a broadway show (Wicked...

Teaching, public speaking, training in various industries, professional magician, kids programs, teen programs, are some off the top of my head. In terms of university direction, Theatre major would impact your magic like nothing else. It would be by far the most impactful courses you could...

My wife and I just recently got back from a visit there. And although not magic related, I strongly recommend you see the 911 memorial museum. Extremely touching and profound. Also a must see.

Do not miss Steve Cohen's show. It was amazing. The entire experience from the hotel, the room, the show - everything. Highly, highly recommended. I don't know how old you are or if you are coming with family, but everyone will enjoy this guaranteed. You must get tickets in advance tho as he...

I have heard that they are rumored to be Masonic in nature (the all seeing eye), but apparently it was only a rumor as the only mason to have input on the bill (B. Franklin) didn't add to that particular image. Some people have real conspiracy theories on this, and rumors fly like crazy about...

Thanks for sharing. I love reading stuff like this.

Heh, just noticed that the image on the sides has clubs spades diamonds and hearts in the splotches.

lol, sorry don't feel bad at all!! You enjoyed the experience a lot! Seriously. I was just surprised to hear that. (My package is still in the mail)

Lol I was totally the first to email. (page 79) I told Casey where to find the address in the picture. And Dan White was in the MS chat when I emailed. Perhaps it just got to their inbox later. heh, fair enough. ;) Far too much cost to get to Canada!

Sounds like it was a great opportunity for you. As for repeating the effect, sometimes, it is totally fine (as perhaps with EB). However, anytime you don't want to repeat something, simply be firm and confident in your reply (whatever line you chose. I sometimes say "everyone knows a magician...

This would in fact be one of the most angle proof. I also highly recommend Wild levitation. You need a jacket, but as a result your angles are quite decent and you go quite high

I started by buying the sponge balls from Penguin Magic, and they give you a simple routine, that is a great place to start. I haven't seen Sponge (Noblezada), but is seems like a great resource to take it further and develop your own routine.

Ha, that's a great reaction. I love it when people start rubbing the ink on the card to see if it comes off or changes. I would say this is a good reaction. imo

I don't know if I would agree. When you see a magician do something, do you not wonder "How on earth is that done?" When you see something like the preview for Smoke, doesn't your mind spin through its database of ideas on how this could be possible? I would submit that this is the same with...

If anyone ever guesses the method, I find myself no longer doing that trick. I hear a lot about magnets when I levitate stuff. But I think most people inherently need to have a solution or something to attribute the effect to. In my stage show, I play off this a bit. I do an effect (by...

A great value for your dollar, get On the Spot by Gregory Wilson. Fantastic, practical routines. There is even a watch steal, if you have never learned one. No cards, all impromptu.

Sometimes it's nice to have a bit of faith in someone, and give them the benefit of the doubt. Life happens, and sometimes it's more important than the internet, business, or even magic (*insert gasp). How about, instead of dishing out all the judgmental statements, just wait until the issues...

JB = win. However... Bro, you need some balance! That's not sustainable!

That was fantastic! Great presentation. I liked that he brought it down, it kept it very captivating. Loved the music choice. Sharron's reaction to Howie was hilarious. The poor guy has a genuine phobia tho.
