I'll be sure to add both of you. If you get annoying I'll delete you, though. :D By the way, if anybody would like to add me, feel free to do so. AIM: adjones53 MSN: jonesie53@hotmail.com

So look guys, what do you think about having a forum dedicated solely to having essays on magic? I have at least seven essays scattered around here, and I'd like it if there was a place to put them where they wouldn't get buried under all the other topics, and nobody every reading them again...

I'm going to go out on a limb here and tell you not to start with Instant Downloads. Start with the classics: -Card College -Mark Wilson's Complete Course in Magic -Royal Road to Card Magic -Pyrotechnic Pasteboards/ Card Stunts by Gregory Wilson (not classics, but awesome...

Hmm... interesting question. I've always been a card guy. I don't know why, I'm just "drawn" to them. I can do a few very basic sleights with coins, but it just doesn't feel right when I perform with them. But the cards feel natural in my hands, and I'm fairly talented with them, if I do say...

Witness used to be called Deuce Bag... duh. That was just to make the poster above me mad. :) For those of you scooping up his notes to get Witness cheaper... I would think about it first. When you're buying the notes, I'm assuming you get the instructions only. However, with the...

It was a joke... I guess sarcasm really doesn't work over the internet... at all. He's in good health, so... nevermind. That joke was obviously over your head.

I don't like Tenkai at all, but I love the Gambler's Cop and the Classic Palm. I use the Classic Palm more, for stuff like Card to Pocket, ditching cards, etc.

Meh, I'm not too excited about them. It would be cool and all to be able to say you had a deck of cards signed b David Blaine, but they aren't worth much now, and he'll probably live to be like 300 with the health he's in, so they'll never be of any value to us.

I don't have a favorite, but I use the Shapeshifter, Shake Change, and Erdnase Changes the best. The way I see it, though, is that they're all the same in the eyes of the spectator. If you showed twelve different color changes to twelve different laymen, odds are they would all describe it the...

Some of the best misdirection, IMO, of course, is when you say something funny and the audience is busy laughing.

Look up Pyrotechnic Pasteboards by Gregory Wilson on Penguin. You can search for my review of it here, or there. You can find his effect "Flashback" on that DVD.

Gregory Wilson, Chris Kenner, Gazzo, Mac King... they're all hilarious and great. They all tie for first, I think. :D

I'll make a review for the Split Spades later today unless you already found one. But I can tell you right now they're pretty dang cool, and you probably won't regret getting them.

I bet a lot of people already have them. I for one might buy some next time just for my collection, but I'm not too worried about it.

I'm betting its cards. I love cards. Coins suck. Well, I suck at doing magic with coins, anyway. :(

Guardians. The clear window on the Wynn box is because they were used for casinos... casinos do that.

That was last weeks, silly.

Sweet! If only I had some money. lol Oh, and first! Sorry, had to do it.

I don't like the look of it, but that's just because I like my decks to look nice and clean.

Gregory Wilson's "Flashback" is simply awesome... you won't regret getting it. Plus everything else on Pyrotechnic Pasteboards is great, as well.
