I don't own it, so I can't say.

(sigh) Okay, let me put it another way. Maybe 1 in 100 people knows what selling out is. Stop trying to explain to me what you think it means, because I honestly don't give a ****. My point is that magicians are particularly susceptible to thinking that art and business are mutually...

You can stop putting disclaimers on your posts. Anyone who would think you're being racist by saying this is obviously too stupid to get through breakfast without injuring themselves if left unattended. Racism comes from a position of hatred. Does any of this come across as hateful? No...

It's cool.

I'm not asking myself, I'm asking you. What I do probably wouldn't fit you.

I was being facetious. And I did try to address the topic, unlike you just now. But I need Slicke's answer to my question before I can issue further advice. If you want to criticize me further, keep it to PM because I'm really not in the god damn mood to try and juggle replies in the same thread.

Please do not use the word chillax in my presence ever again. Thank you. Now as for the topic, tell me what persona you're trying to project. I think you come across to these people as a non-entity and that means whatever you do has no value outside of a party trick. So what are you trying...

Isn't that the responsibility of the performer? To keep people engaged and paying attention? Yo. Although if I had to answer your question, I do have to say that when I was still busking I liked performing for the young black guys. Black culture seems to encourage high energy and being...

No, the prediction was. Jesus, do the schools teach reading comprehension at all these days? Or did you just want an excuse to play the victim card? And thus are our true colors revealed. You don't strike me as the type who would have listened even if I acted like a total bliss ninny.

I said "the internet." I did not name these boards specifically. Jesus...

Eh, whatever. If nothing it will give more fuel to the people determined to create a psychological profile of me. There are three reasons magicians do the unnecessarily complicated **** that they do. 1. They want validation for the hours of work they put into learning. 2. They want to...

Oh. Saves me the trouble of typing another rant then. And saves my inbox from another torrent of hate mail.

Are these rhetorical questions? Just thought I'd ask before I shoot my mouth off.

As long as it gets them to rub two brain cells together, I'll take that small victory. Honestly, the internet is such a ****ing hugbox these days, I'll take what I can get. Until actual humor can be found, please enjoy this substitute.

Yeah, I get that. I'm just saying that if it were, say, Criss Angel or Brad Christian doing a commercial for a clothing line, a bunch of people would be tripping over themselves to be the first to cry, "Sell out!!" Personally, I don't care how these guys make money. I'm a Misfits fan...

There are two versions of Mark Wilson's to go with. The Complete Course is $20 and is about the size of a standard school book. The Cyclopedia of Magic is the same material, but in a much smaller, more compact book available for $10. I'm not as big a fan of the latter though as the spine and...

Not my point.

No. I implied the same thing already earlier in the thread. Doesn't surprise me that you missed it. Thank you.

Damn it, I can't help myself. I just have to say it. Show of hands. Who here thinks that a lot of people would call this selling out if it were any other internet celebrity magician?
