    Simple - One Thing Happens

    Excellent reminder Rick. It makes a great filter when selecting new magic to learn and spend the time practicing on.

    My 12-month Journey

    Indeed. It took me six months to read Meads Tangled Web. Same with Maximum Entertainment. But so much more effective. In fact often we blitz through a book or lecture or conference, but we need to consider what are we going to do with all the information after. My work is really big on that too...

    Stage Show

    If you are going to do the show rather than pass it off, I would suggest rather than grabbing new material, instead take tricks you already own and perform and make them bigger.

    My Wife does magic for Ingress

    It's a pretty fun game and the storyline is quite interesting (www.nianticproject.com). It was our 9th anniversary last week and on the way to the restaurant she wanted to check out the game on my phone. She got to hack a portal on the way there and she was hooked. After a nice romantic dinner...

    Mysterium - A New Series by Jason England

    Great stuff. I agree. Why hasn't Jason written a book yet? A few years back Jason wrote a controversial post about your reputation and online personal. I would love for him to tackle that topic again because I think the concept was spot on.

    Can't Blacken cards with a lighter

    Rookie mistake.

    Even just having an unopened deck of cards in each car would have been smart. If I had been somewhere downtown, there are no gift shops or convenience stores. I'm not sure what I would have done.

    Rookie mistake.

    So today I had a walk around gig at a hospital in the city (staff Christmas party). I get there and realise that I forgot my case with EVERYTHING in it at home. I have nothing. No cards no coins nothing. So I swung by the gift store and bought all the decks they had (3), and asked the...
