    Siegfried and Roy perform with tiger in final show

    That is amazing. Truly, truly inspiring. Talk about facing your fears head on. Thank you for linking to the story. Hopefully I'll be able to catch the episode of 20/20 on Friday.

    A plea to the multitudes...

    To be quite honest, I laughed at this statement...just let the responses speak for themselves; talking big like this is just silly. You had me until the last part (bolded for emphasis). Just because someone treats magic poorly does not mean they have to be in it as a hobby. Likewise, just...

    A plea to the multitudes...

    The main problem with this thread is that the OP didn't offer constructive criticism about the state of affairs...just criticism. Try offering up some solutions to the problem. And I don't mean just "everybody needs to learn to respect the art"....okay, sure, that's fine, but how are you going...

    Starting a Magic Society at the University of Western Ontario

    Just so ya know, bumping is against the rules. But feel free to add something of value (there's an edit button). :)

    How Big?

    It's not the size of the ship, it's the motion of the ocean? ;) What? I thought we were using cute little sayings to get our point across? o_O Hehe...and by that, of course, I mean: it doesn't matter what size your hands are, it's how you use them (and other tools at your disposal--like...

    How Big?

    18 x 20 cm I really thought my hands were quite small...they are compared to most adults that I know. With ring sizes of like 7.5 and 9 (ring and middle finger, respectively), they're far smaller than most adult males. I mean, my brother's ring finger is far larger than my middle finger (we...

    Angry

    ...I'm pretty sure Thrall was being sarcastic, making fun of the person Danny quoted. Or did you catch that, and were commenting on the person Thrall quoted? Blah, the internet bothers me with its lack of emotion portrayal. =/ Either way, andthensome is being re-released with an included bit of...

    Hard time for working magicians...

    That's actually more than reasonable for a novice performer, especially for a private gig like that. The "godlike" (I'll assume you mean people on the scale of the T11 artists, just to have an actual reference point) performer would actually charge so much more than that. To use an actual...

    I need some help guys (or girls).

    Agreed. Also kind of ironic...the OP is hesitant about letting his friend use the resources he has access to, as he's afraid he'll abuse them...yet here he is, abusing his access to a magic resource. This resource doesn't explain tricks (unless purchased), but it's still a very valuable magic...

    Jason England Lecture!

    I may or may not be there; we'll see. Definite sounds like it'll be great, though. :)

    Starting a Magic Society at the University of Western Ontario

    Agreed. That's like saying listing belonging to the IBM or CAM or whatever on your "resume" (or website, or promotional package, etc) hurts your credentials. As would listing any magic awards you've won. Have you seen the promotional packages of some of the artists here? I've seen Dan...

    Starting a Magic Society at the University of Western Ontario

    Ahh, that is excellent news. It's nice to see that you're on top of things--that alone sells me on the idea. Just let me know when the meetings will be (and when they'll start), and I'll be there! :)

    Starting a Magic Society at the University of Western Ontario

    Ahh, that's excellent to hear. On a side note, will you be around next year, too? New clubs seem to fizzle away into nothingness when their creators don't follow them up for a few years (or when there isn't another person who is at least equally as motivated to keep the club going to take...

    Starting a Magic Society at the University of Western Ontario

    Are you allowed to form a club this late in the year, or are you going about it without financial assistance (and therefore, technically not a formal club) from the USC (or whoever funds it)? Either way, I'm in. :) Edit: Also, what will go on in the club meetings? Will it essentially be...

    Propaganda - Sold Out

    Weren't you already warned about breaking the rule regarding "l33t speak"? I remember seeing that in another thread... Either way, it's nice to see that they sold out like that--I enjoy seeing companies being able to prosper and sell their creations, especially given the economic situation...

    Is True Astonishments worth it?

    Joke topic, I'm guessing? Either way, here's the scoop: True Astonishments is a collection of effects, spread across 9 DVDs, which comes in a special collectible wooden puzzle box. Each DVD has a corresponding gimmick that comes with it (if I recall correctly--I don't have the set myself)...

    Any books or articles regarding magic starters?

    I agree, this is a great book. I wish I would have read this as my introduction to mentalism instead of 13 Steps (not that 13 Steps is overly complicated, but Fundamentals is by far a better introductory type introduction). I eventually got to it anyway, which is good (it's always nice to hear...
