Hello guys and girls,
On September the 13th I will celebrate my 18th birthday ( hint hint ) and I thought about doing a quick mental miracle for my guests and what's better than predicting what presents I will get? To achieve this I will be using a one ahead method by having someone secretly tell me what he got me and then shamelessly lie about it in front of everyone else. I have come up with some little psychological subtleties that will help convince everyone that I indeed write what I say I write and not something else.
Why am I telling you this you ask? For two reasons:
1] To know if you think this is a good idea and..
2] To take the opportunity of asking this great community of magicians and mentalists for advice on alternative methods that don't involve me divulging one of mentalism's strongest principles to someone else. I'm not asking for methods ( someone explaining to me what I should do ), but for guidance to a book or a DVD or something that can give me a strong alternative to what I said above. I'm also fascinated by predictions in general above all other types of mentalism, so that would be a good opportunity for me to expand my knowledge on the subject.
Thank you in advance !
