It’s been a long time since I sat down to write something like this. I put a moratorium on it to check my rampaging ego, but I think this is worth bringing up in light of a few things I’ve seen of late. Let me tell you a little story. Sen no Rikyu The Japanese tea ceremony is an...

Don't buy this DVD. This is a serious effect. People can feel you die, kid. It's not a glorified practical joke. If all you can think about is your own masturbatory desire to "freak people out", then I don't want you within a mile of any pulse stop effects.

Okay, whatever you're smoking, hand it over.

No one's claiming they do. I guess that means the joke's on you.

Different IP. Ask Doug about it and he'll elaborate on it. Bear in mind that I'm assuming they're not the same people... but I haven't ruled out the possibility that they know each other.

I've asked about this, but apparently there's good reason to believe Namie is in fact not BrianationX. For the time being, I'm going to assume that's true. That does not however change the fact that the rhetoric remains equally ignorant, and the arrogance equally jaw-dropping. Regardless...

Criss is a douchebag. No one has denied that. However, you're trying too hard to turn this into a black and white issue bereft of any and all nuance. Your inexplicable grudge against this man is causing you to run your mouth off and paint yourself into a rhetorical corner. And yet... here...

I'm speaking from personal experience not just as a magician, but also as an actor and a movie director. If you want me to believe for even a nanosecond that you are on a level comparable to Teller, I want video proof of you performing to a paying audience. Unfortunately, the anonymity of...

That's because Teller is incredibly expressive and is a very likeable guy that people can relate to. Not everyone can do what he does.

I took a look at Jim's website, making a few notes. For a skeptic, the man certainly does love to give the idea that he's real. He's like Docc Hilford without the self-effacing self-awareness. A would-be Uri Geller. He has a disclaimer stating that he is not a psychic or a medium, but a...

I know I said I was dropping out, but once again it seems I'm needed to explain the obvious. Criss did not have the skeptics to prove he's supernatural. He was trying to prove he doesn't use camera tricks! And as magicians, we all know that there is always an explanation for a seemingly...

Well, they're certainly catty about their opinions. You're talking about adding constructive criticism, not negativity. And in regards to the overblown cut controversy, I didn't like the move either. That might explain why I didn't buy it. However, I'm not so emotionally invested in a...

Isn't that a bit like having your cat throw up on the couch cushion and instead of cleaning it you just turn the cushion upside-down?

Unfortunately, trends in forums like what you see here are exactly why you don't see more professionals visiting.

Could you site a statistic on that? And if the off-topic forum got more traffic than the other forums, wouldn't that just result in an overall decline in quality as everyone is going to switch from asking how tall J. Bayme is to who Shia LeBoufe (or however you spell that) is sleeping with and...
