Hey guys: I did see this on Vinny Marini's web site (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.vinnymarini.com">http://www.vinnymarini.com</a><!-- m -->). There was no further explanation. UPDATE: We finished filming Mickey Silver in Vegas, went real well till the cops showed up...but that's an...

Got mine yesterday, the 16th.

Will do, Mark. If I lived close to the Dock, I sell all my stove and fridge and turn my kitchen into a magic room :)

We usually stay at the 5th Avenue Beach Club.

Mark: my wife and I vacation in Naples every year. We love eating at the Dock. There was a samll magic shop in Fort Myers Beach, but on our last visit, they were closed each time we visited. Several times during our vacations, we've attended Magic on the Beach in Miami. I think they've changed the d...

Got mine yesterday, June 16th. Another great issue.

Glenn: Hang in there buddy. Spent 7 days screaming while waiting to pass one. What helped me were strong drugs liberally prescribed by a compasionate doctor, heating pad and watching magic videos. No pun intended, but I started to learn the pass during my ordeal. I wish you the best.

David: also one of my favorite episodes. You got my vote. Would you consider posting other shows and episodes you've written. The credits roll too fast, and I can never read the names. Congrats and good luck.

Tabman: Great excercises. Here's another link for additional excercises:

Hand Health

The effect is currently marketed through Kevin James, and is listed on his site, www.kjmagic.com

Got mine today in Virginia Beach

Count me in for vol 1 and 2!

No Chris, you arent a bastard for thinking that. Most of us who own these are probably thinking the same thing. Of course, that's my evil side talking. I really wish all my magic friends can see Dave in action. I can't wait for the new dvd, and Hope to catch Dave on his east coast tour.

Scott: I've also emailed you with details. The one day convention starts @930 with lectures concluding @5. The night show is at 730. You may contact me via email : spyboy53@aol.com. My cell phone is in your email.

Hope to see you there.

On May 8th, the Earl Edwards Ring 103 will present "Magic Virginia", a one day convention in Virginia Beach, Va. Presenting daytime lectures and nighttime performances are Aldo Columbini, David Regal and Craig Dickson. We've just gotten news that E. Raymond Carlyle has been added to the ni...

Number Cruncher can be done with one double lift if you use a thumb tip and a piece of flash paper.

Arrived Virginia Beach, Va April 18. thanks

Very interesting word usements!

I got to see Michael Ammar the other day on his SAM lecture tour. His bottle production is great. David Stone also has a nice production.

Richard, The Ross Bertram article was not too long. If anything, I was left wanting more. In my brief time studying magic, this was my first exposure to him. His videos and books are now on my immediate list of things to order. Thanks for the magazine and the article, and please send thanks to David...

How about reinforcing the "Just Say No" theme by getting the spectators (kids I assume) to repeat the phrase from time to time. "Just Say No" would be a perfect time to vanish something. Perhaps while displaying a cigarette, shotglass or white crocheted ball (resembling an illega...

Thanks for the info. I'd be interested to know if anyone has any comments on Slink.

Luis:

In the close-up section of this forum, under coin magic, someone mentions a trick called invisible hand from Paul Cummins "Up in Smoke". Perhaps this is what you are looking for.

As I learn to work with linking rings and rings on rope (or string), I've seen a trick by Ben Harris called Slink. The description leads me to think it could be cool to incorporate into my learning of all things "rings". Here's the problem.....I don't know what Russian Wedding Rings are. I...
