Are you retarded? :confused: I bet you didn't know a few days back it was national Retard day. It was the day that the people who fund the special olympics petitioned to ban the use of the word Retard in media. What a stupid move on the retards part. They are putting the word retard in...

Oh please that internet meme is older then my mother. Another thing is it is just a line of words, they only gain any power when you give it power. It's like Racism, it is only offensive to the one who perceives it as offensive. Catch my drift?

A man dressed in tight fitting leather pants with a studded, leather jacket draped over his shoulders covering a tight fitting wife beater. In his gloved hands is a riding crop which makes a loud snapping sound each time it slaps his palm. Across his chest painted onto the wife beater is the...

The name is actually Chung Ling Soo not to be confused with the other Chinese magician Ching Ling Foo. To answer the question though, if I could find someone to properly teach me I would do strong man sideshow stunts. Things like bending rebar with my neck, and balancing myself on a spear...

The only problem I had with that spread pass is that it looked very mechanical and not very smooth or flowed. The fact that the movement are split into two different times is probably the reason. One tip I am going to suggest is when you practice go through the motions like you normaly and do...

Blah blah blah go cry somewhere else. You made a thread about gimmicks and what not and someone posted BS about non gimmicked magic being better, or should be more awarded and praised then gimmicked magic. Steer saw the huge BMW (Big mexican Woman) Flaw in his argument and has been prodding away...

What is the peek he uses in Evening of Wonder when he has six specs up and he guesses objects?

Effects I would think would end well in a stand up show. Now please keep in mind these are thoughts. The ending of a good acid monte routine, where the metal is boiling and steaming away as your patrons leave. My absolute favorite ender to a stage/stand up show is a round of thanking and a...

Speaking about arts and inspiration, if you weren't aware Teller of Penn and Teller directed "Macbeth" in the Folger's Theater. Well now it is on dvd http://www.amazon.com/Macbeth-DVD-Folger-Shakespeare-Library/dp/1439172250/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1267502461&sr=1-2 I am buying it how...

I missed this, the answer is yes. Believe it or not magic has a business side to it and I find it strange it isn't talked about more often in threads that are about becoming famous and what not. Sure magicians have to be great at what they do on stage or in front of a crowd, but they also NEED...

If you liked that video I completely suggest you purchase the DVD Magic and Mystery tour. It is three well made documentaries of magic in different areas of the world. Egypt, China, and India each one is eye opening and has little nuggets of diamonds among all the gold and knowledge in these...

We are very much so on topic, He asked if anyone had a character or something that is your personality time two. People with the exception of a few have answered with "it's me" Me is not a character and for the last two-three pages a few members have actually been giving actually helpful...

No one said there was Crow. Do you think Joshua Jay describes himself to professional clients as "He is very nice, casual guy." If aaron fisher suggests to be yourself, good be yourself. But if you can't accurately describe what "Yourself" is then how can you successfully be "Yourself"? You...

Actually I do mind since I know among the dirt is little nuggets of gold. However I will drag my happy little ass out of bed and open up my word document titled Getting a Kiss Successfully Which is home to all the posts that I felt had merit and actual use later on down the line. *the man...

Well since this thread has gone off on another tangent let me try bringing it back to my tangent. I apologize Nick if I stole your thread. I got candy if you want it. *Points to his white unmarked van* Okay worldwideme and others here is another way to approach this question. *A man dressed in...

Hmm you probably didn't look close enough I suggest actually reading the posts and not skimming over them like a school text book. There are some good posts that give great advice past the second page. I learned more about people reading this post then actually talking to someone one on one.

That is a terrible excuse Matt. LOL Davey

Gah I am such a lazy fart, I just run through the cards and set it up in front of them. Yeah even an OOTW, I just do a quick sloppy shuffle triumph. Also I am one of those guys who talks between tricks grab the cards I need put them where they need to go then act dismissive and "Shuffle" the...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Zqp0OpzMAI A song to relax to. But now to make it magic related, I have found that I draw inspiration onto how to make my magic performance better through listening to chorus music and orchestrated pieces. Now the music doesn't necessarily inspire me to...

Nah man you got to be Tom the kid, white van escape artist.
