Just a thought, but you can use a lot of history and scientific examples for patter... Not that you have time to go through every historic/scientific book there is out there, but it helps to think of card magic a bit while reading articles pertaining to such subjects in the future.

Interesting most people seem to think dealing with the seal is harder. It's actually very simple to open the box up from, say, the bottom instead of carefully peeling the seal. The new cellophane is a ***** to open and save, trust me.

Not easy to fool a very well-read guy who's been doing this for 20+ years. Alas, if I owned even a few of the titles you did... I would be an even happier person.

Body language seems to be a useful trait in most social interaction areas, not just magic. For this, I'd recommend "What Every Body is Saying" by Joe Navarro. There's a nice acting book out by Dale Carnegie that Mehar recently suggested, that'd also be worth looking into (How to Win Friends and...

I don't think they're definitive, end-all be-all books, but you can't go wrong with Jennings and Cervon. Vernon did well by them, it's obvious from their material. That being said: Classic Magic of Larry Jennings (Mike Maxwell) - Jennings Jennings '67 (Richard Kaufman) - Jennings...

I second Traveling Cash. And most variants of the effect. In fact, if you like rubberband magic too, Dan Harlan's Band Shark dvd has a streamlined handling of it called Traveling Tips - my favorite version to perform. Of course, if you want, you can always check out Marcus Eddie's "Stairway"...

Delete all failed download attempt files. Then, delete your browser's cookies (ctrl+shift+del) and restart the computer. Then log back into t11 and attempt to download them again. This is a quick fix Bryant told me about a long time ago, still works whenever i have the problem. I know what...

Or, if you don't mind sleeping on a bed which has probably seen more than enough of it's share of blood and semen, the local motel a few miles away is a MUCH cheaper option. Or sleeping in your car.

Is there some sort of 15% discount? If not, Allstate is the way to go. EDIT: Fail car insurance humor.

Dr. Daley's instant double - Dr. Daley, similar double lift by Bro. John Hamman Vernon style double - Dai Vernon Stuart Gordon double - Stuart Gordon/Ken Simmons Soft double - Roger Klause In addition to these four double lifts, there is a bonus: The Knockout double technique by Martin Nash.

Well, here's the low-down: They suck for cardistry. I'm not even going to debate that - they just do. Now, regarding magic: First off, they come in sets of two, as far as KEM. Second, KEM cards are somewhat good for magic, but I've never tried performing with them. Mainly only have one...

Nah, I think the boats were the Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria. I'm on a boat, !@#$%!

Heh, it's all psychological. You just feel special because you're a big enough of an idiot to waste $5 on a pack of cards that sucks more than regular bikes. Trust me, the masters don't have some secret ingredient that repels dirt. They're ****ing cards, use your head...

It's on his blog. Regarding gaffed dice - if you still haven't found what you're looking for after a bit, PM me. Might know a place that can help you out.

Guys, watch what you say about the Wire in public, or you may soon find yourself down this road:

It's a conspiracy! The Wire is the government's way of influencing American-based companies to cover up their secret attacks on their own country! 9/11 and it's BS shall live forevahz! ... Someone had to say it.

CandleJack is evi...

You can still melt it down, right?

Alright, fine. They feel the exact same. Sorry to break it to you, but UV500 air-flow and air-cushion may be different words, but that doesn't mean they're not the same thing. I can call a chair a table, but that doesn't make it a table - it's still a chair. They are slightly thicker, but not...

Actually, based on ideas I've heard and the time that they announced it would nearly be done, I think the idea was similar to that of "The Magic Session". Have a live chat, online lectures, etc., but more advanced, I guess. Then TMS came out, so maybe they're hoping for that hype to die down...
