If you pick up a copy of the book Richard's Almanac it should be in there... I can't say for sure since I learned it from a single issue of the Almanac. Thank you!!

This is my performance and personal presentation of an offbeat effect by Frank Simon, as published in Richard's Almanac Issue 23-24 (The July-August 1982 issue). Comments are appreciated! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoKKqPmAZvU Michael Kras

I love Loki... it's my favourite effect from the ebook. The method almost makes you feel guilty and you wonder how it's not transparent... but it isn't, far from it. This is solid.

I never use slang in performance. My character is sort of the "odd man out", someone who can look like a complete idiot and a complete genius simultaneously. If ever I use slang, it's for comedic effect.

Thank you Mr. Raiker! Much appreciated. And Shane, I see what you mean... I didn't notice the flash before. Thank you for pointing it out.

I honestly do not. Perhaps a PM would explain this better? I don't use any false transfers or shuttle passes.

Funny, I didn't use a shuttle pass! But thank you for your comments!

In this video, I perform a great effect with Coin Bags off Craig Petty's DVD, Attack Of The Bag. This is my handling of it. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olsyDN05ass&feature=channel_page Michael Kras

PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS!!! Pointers are some of the most underused utilities in card magic... teaching it to laypeople ruins everything.

"There is a tie that binds us to our homes"

The "warm, heartfelt" conversation made me fall out of my chair laughing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Nth2Y5vo5U&feature=related I have nothing else to say. Just watch the thing.

Most of the people on these forums, who act like magic philosophers, have absolutey no right to. You meet these people, see them perform and think "I took advice from THIS?". There are a few examples off the top of my head as I type.

Here's my performance of a great effect by Caleb Wiles, which I believe was in turn inspired by a Harry Lorayne routine. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9guodIpYBDo&feature=email Michael

After he arrived, I didn't do any magic for him or Deanna. All I did was an impromptu "Sam" routine.

LOL yes! I was there, at the Starbucks and Pizza Pizza too... only thing is, I didn't do any magic for the dude Reuben's talking about. I realized this afterwards... there's always some sort of running "joke" that Reuben and I must "MAGIC BATTLE NOW", so whenever we're in the same place doing...

Whoa, does Mr. Kosby ever look different!!!! Excellent interview, loved it!

Thank you guys! Sorry about being a bit defensive before, I've been in a bad mood for most of the day... but I just went for a walk to clear my head and feel much better. I do agree the Top Shot needs work... if I couldn't do it for the video as well as it should look than I should have...

Wise words Mr. Raiker... but I personally feel that I'd rather spend my time dedicating my practice to other sorts of moves, moves with a certain practicality I look for... Top Shot, as gorgeous as the move can be, is not something I can see myself using regularly... therefore, I doubt I'll...

So what if my Topshot isn't as fast as other's? Well alright, I see your point. I'll just deal them off next time or something.
