    How long is YOUR practice session?

    I have a deck of cards all day with me. When I get home, I usually do whatever work I need to get done and I start to seriously sit down and practice in front of a mirror at about 5 PM. I usually go until 11 or 11:30. I obviously break to eat and utilize my restroom facilities. I go through...

    Yeah, I want to seem some Bayme-tasticness.

    Lucky First Deck of Cards

    My first deck was this red plastic coated Planet Dexter deck. It came with a book of self-working card tricks. I've had it since I was like 7. I don't use it anymore, but it's on display.

    Essay: Analyzing a Legend's Words: Jamy Ian Swiss

    Yeah. I second that. It's not like this thread has diminished into a bunch of petty insults. There's a lot of good stuff here. Intelligent debate. Don't step all over that...

    Essay: Analyzing a Legend's Words: Jamy Ian Swiss

    Wow. This is a great discussion here. Just though I'd drop a couple of points... Magic is an aesthetic entity. It is meant to be heard and seen. Just like every morning, when one chooses which D.C. comic book character t-shirt he's going to wear to wear to work, which will give everyone...

    Good Routines from J.B. Bobo Coin Magic

    I got J.B. Bobo's New Modern Coin Magic and was wondering (to those who own it) what are some of the best non-gimmicked routines to perform standing, preferably without sleeves. Yes, that's oddly specific, but I guess I'm too lazy to go through myself and narrow it down. Besides, I just...
