    Inside by Daniel Madison

    The material itself (almost all card magic) is excellent. Lots of great effects and clever methods. The writing itself is pretty bland, and the book is filled with tons of grammar and spelling mistakes, but the material itself is good stuff. You'll definitely get something out of it.

    Favourite Type of Gaff Card

    The only gaff card I regularly carry in my deck is a Twilight Angels card. The only other two gaff cards I sometimes use is a black Rider Back card (in a red Rider Back deck) and a Sleeping Queen card.

    I Need A Tagline... Any Ideas?

    I agree with worldwideme and LyleBorders--respelling words by starting them with X's, or changing S's to Z's (Xtreme, Xplosion, Boyz, Cardz, etc.), is a really outdated cliche'. You're more creative than that I'm sure. Maybe if you tell us some of the ideas you came up with for a tagline...

    Hollywood & Highland Says NO to Super Heros

    I haven't been able to find one place anywhere in my area I can go to busk without getting arrested. The illusion of freedom in this country is one of the most impressive illusions I've ever seen. Take notes, Mr. Copperfield.

    45 Jay Sankey?

    Awesome DVD. Lots of cool sleights.

    Sinful + Healed and Sealed

    If you stop and think about what each effect is communicating, and why each effect has earned a reputation for being as strong as it is, I think you'll see that combining the two in this manner actually weakens the impact of both. Just because you can combine two effects together doesn't mean...

    Stooges

    This wouldn't be considered a stooge--it would be an accomplice. Nice work though. Sounds like it went over great and you created a very memorable moment for your two spectators.

    Yeah, you're wrong. ;)

    Did anyone else catch Jamy Ian Swiss on Craig Ferguson's show last night?

    I fell asleep on the couch last night and when I woke up I was watching Jamy Ian Swiss do magic for Craig Ferguson. I honestly thought I was dreaming it was so weird. I closed my eyes to go back to sleep then realized I was awake and had actually seen what I thought I saw, so I picked up my...

    Sinful + Healed and Sealed

    It's a good idea, and I appreciate your thinking on routining the two together, but in my opinion it doesn't make sense to do Healed & Sealed by restoring a can and then leaving it closed and going into Sinful for a few reasons. 1. After doing Healed & Sealed you want to show people the can...

    Sinful + Healed and Sealed

    Use two different cans. Use one brand new can for Sinful, then drop the can in a trashcan as you return the quarter to the own and put emphasis on that. Then, as an afterthought, reach into the trashcan and pull out the prepared Healed and Sealed can, making it look as if you are just taking out...

    Criss Angel steals effect and markets it...

    Well said, Brad. Great post on the issue. I agree with all seven of your replies.

    Sounds cool, Mike. Sent you a PM. :)

    Impromptu No Prop Stage Illusions

    Your use of grammar and spelling is too easy to dismiss as someone not serious at all about the topic he has proposed. Write as if you are addressing an intelligent audience and perhaps you will have one.

    Wayne Houchin

    It's a David Harkey effect. Can't remember what book it's in but if you do some searching you'll find it. I'm pretty sure it's not in Simply Harkey though. I want to say it's in AH-HA, so you might want to look there first. Just a tip: in the future you may want to try titling your subject line...

    How to create a 'tingling' sensation?

    Must... resist... inappropriate... joke.... Body... not... functioning... Having trouble... breathing.

    Thanks a lot JB!

    I really think this was awesome. Not many companies just give away something for free like this with no purchase necessary. This is one of the best "thank yous" I've ever received from any company. Definitely the coolest thing any magic company has done for loyal customers. Also, I'm really...
