Taken me a couple hours just to delve in to the mind palace and find how I FIRST got into magic, as opposed to when I picked it up a second time a year and a half ago. I was watching cartoon, as young kids would do. And I saw an interesting commercial for a series of magic tricks. Also...

Good luck to all romantics involved!

2 could be used as a 'Z'...yeah, I know; useful! 6 as a lower case 'b' upside down 9...also a 'b'

Oh yes! It's definitely good times and good people here. Except when it comes to Gold Monarchs. No quarter there. :p

Ah man! This is going to be put over my head for a while. Skill based contests. I can't win a skill based contest to save my life. But random contests, watch it. My territory! That said. Well played on your part.

Agh! Beat me to it! Like what Gabriel's said: does not cover shipping. But you really get $5 every 1K in points. And it's hard racking them up to begin with. Save those points for something when it pops up or one of the Skype sessions. Just my 2 cents

It's tempting, I'll give it that. I don't do NEARLY as much card work as I did last year--I mean, I still have a box of Green Monarchs when they were first released that I haven't properly broken in yet. As much as I want to open the the gold ones, I have it earmarked for some magic books and...

It would be so tempting to open and NOT hack up one of the cards for a future SNC. The tears of contest participants is almost worth it

Oh no no. Nothing bad is going to happen to them. It's usually the ad cards that get it. It's actually a part of a 'rainbow deck' idea that is going to be a slow construction process. Although, I am not sure whether to open them for just the jokers, trade them for the Summer Edition...

I'm trying to figure out a logical way of using one of those Kiwano/Spiked Melons in an act like this. They are VERY visual and look very neat. And taste good too after the performance is done.

As far as a routine goes, I thought of an 'anti-routine' for 'One-Fly', if that's a thing. Did this while watching A LOT of Tommy Cooper. Basically you explain that once upon a time, there was a coin. Then it disappeared, and then it reappeared! (In the other hand). And then it went missing...

I'm starting out in coin magic as well. Use. A. Mirror. I didn't believe my 'cover' for a Retention Vanish was convincing enough on its own. A month later, I used a mirror and it actually didn't look too bad--aside from coordination issues and whatnot. But compared to card work, coin work...

There is the classic bill-in-lemon, if that helps. As for the 'why', I figure that would be easy: make a routine based on eating breakfast or a snack. Have some handkerchief/napkin magic. Throw in some eating utensil magic and there you go. A magicians breakfast. Ha! Bend a spoon until...

Well! Isn't that a helluva way to start the week! And yes, I am shocked. Been at the kids school volunteering half the day. I saw the results, but not enough time to respond. But yes! Thanks for the kudos. And I will see you all next week, where I won't win because I seem to only win...

Or maybe the cards were just made with ONE gold: Gold Monarchs. But if it's plural gold then you have Golds Monarchs. Which sounds odd because it then it sounds like it wields ownership of the Monarchs by someone named 'Gold'. Does it have to BE actual gold? Or could it be gold-ish to be...

So I just re-sorted all the Tenyo magic tricks I have to review and intend to acquire within the year (excluding anything from the 2017 line later this year and MAYBE the 2016 ‘redemption’ packet trick). The list has regenerated itself from being a small list of Tenyo that I haven’t reviewed...

Woah woah woah! Hold on there, Buck Rodgers. Somebody has to walk away with something. And this weeks contest is a very interesting smorgasbord of potential winners: - Gabriel is looking for his first SNC win - Khaleel is looking for his second win and third set of Gold Monarchs - I want a...

He's actually won't two: 1 from Expose and one from last week. He's going for the hat trick, folks!

Oh, you and your on point memes!

I have a feeling we won't get our answer until tonight. Until then, I demand more speculation! And if you are reading this thinking Casey Rudd posted results; well, made you look.
