The Ripple, The Simple Switch.

Yeah, so what if Hanukkah's over. Be P.C. and put it on your "holiday" bush. It's a dreidel, in case anyone was wondering.

I personally just like having a thick card in the deck for some really simple key-card effects.

What's a good source for learning to backpalm huge amounts of cards?

I'll just say this. Christopher Nolan is now one of my favorite directors (along with David Cronenburg and The Coen Bros.) I was, however, disappointed by The Illusionist. I just didn't do it for me. But, damn, the prestige is good. As good as it is, I still think it's underrated...

Other than The Prestige and The Illusionist, does anyone know of any films on the subject of magic? I don't mean movies that just have Ricky Jay in them, either (although there are some great ones). I mean movies on and about the subject of magic and illusion. And please don't say Penn...

Double stick has worked fine for me. It holds together really well and I just use a bone folder to burnish it.

If anyone cares, in your pack of Wynns, there are 2 extra cards, one with a Wynn back and a barcode on the face, and one with a logo on the back and a blank face. Use some double-stick tape and you can make a thick blank card, useful for tricks with blank cards and thick cards alike...

Get all three AoA books and maybe card college. That should probably get you something in the ballpark of 6 black ghosts...

Absolutely. I'm not asking you to change your opinion. Even if every single artist on this site said I was wrong, I'd still stand by my opinion. Like I said, this is more for me, to prove to myself that I'm not crazy...

That answers my question. Thank you.

Jeez... Thanks, Chris Kenner... Um..."Longman" is kind of my name...heheh...but, whatever...

You're right. I guess I'm really just proving it to myself...

The first trick I taught him was this one easy key-card trick. Every time he would spread the cards to find the selection, he actually would get hysterical, in his excitement that it was actually working. It was kind of half-moan, half-laugh. He did that trick to my entire family over...

A lot of people seemed pretty pissed at me for a thread I started a few days ago. This is it: http://forums.theory11.com/showthread.php?t=3144 I'm just putting this out there: I don't want to start that stuff up again, but here is something that those of you who disagreede with me...

My little cousin just started into magic. I showed him some things over Thanksgiving--cross cut force, a key card trick, and this one coin vanish... I made him swear into the magician's code so that he's take it seriously. He sent me this: Ben, I tried using silly putty to do...

What I want to know is why you're wearing a hoody indoors...

Indeed I am, and indeed it is...

I would totally be into T11 getting some books by the artists. "The Paper Engine" would be nice. "Totally Out of Control" would also be nice... If T11 did this, I would give them my money... Any chances or is it just wishful thinking?

I wouldn't really call this a review, mainly because it's not a review... I just got a Cerca Trova T-shirt for Hanukkah, which is sexy, and all. It is quite soft, but i noticed that it has these frayed edges, lightly torn sleeves, etc. I'm no fashion nut, but I think that these are supposed...
