What nail?....they are worn down from all the typing :-)

Thanks Opie

Sir? Out of respect for you kind sir....although off print you will always be Opie my good friend. Working on quite a few things such as: 1. A mailing list just for The Magic Touch - currently it is shared by those who receive the weekly Have you heard? and perhaps not everyone wants to be on both l...

Yes sir, have thought of that. Once there are several issues we will have to look into a website to have the issues for download.

Thank you to those who submitted articles and effects today for TMT, the second issue is shaping up quite nicely!

Until next time, keep a dream in the making

Thank you both again for your words. Good or bad, pro or con, I am very open to all input and I would love to receive all "quips, tips, ideas, etc" that anyone is kind and generous enough to send. And so, the subscriptions continue to come in, I continue to receive comments of gratitude fr...

Greetings, thank you Opie for your words. Yes, this is a publication about magic friends share with magic friends. I am amazed each day by the growing number of requests for subscription that I am receiving since that first issue went out. We're on our way with the second one and all contributions a...

Greetings, thank you Grandpa Chet for your words. The Magic Touch was distributed to the mailing list of those who receive the monday (weekly) updates called "Have you heard?" which covers news of magic happenings, good and welfare, birthdays, broken wands, and other tidbits of information...

Greetings, the IBM Ring 45 meets the 2nd tuesday of every month at the South Miami Elks and SAM 280/Magic City Conjurers meets the third wednesday of the month at the same location. On March 1 there will be a 1 day mini convention held at the Elks club. Events will run from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and in...

Hi Tom, by now you have received an e-mail from Jerry. I saw your post and phoned him letting him know you were trying to reach him rather than posting his information on the forum for privacy issues.

Great reading a post from you....best always

It is with great sadness that I report on the passing away of Larry White. He fought a valiant fight, but he lost that fight to cancer early this morning. Larry was a past editor of the M.U.M., the official publication of the Society of American Magicians; he was co-editor with David Goodsell, PNP o...

Greetings, you can now order the magnets from Rachel Wild...they just went on sale at a very good price. You can see them at http://www.wildcolombini.com.

Greetings, thank you Richard for that input. OOPS, I should have thought about that. Here is a link to the page where you can see a photo of him for those who have asked <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.magician.org/portal/en/node/580">http://www.magician.org/portal/en/node/580</a><!--...

A photo of Sam Schwartz appears on the home page of the IBM Website - The Portal - with a copy of the e-mail I sent out yesterday with regards to his passing. You can see the photo at <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.magician.org">www.magician.org</a><!-- w -->. Not sure how to post a ...

Dear friends, my heart is sad and heavy this afternoon as I send this e-mail to report the passing of my friend Sam Schwartz. A legend in his own time, Sam is a terrible loss to the magic world and to me and my family. Sam was an attorney and had been the attorney for Lou Tannens. He was a very clos...

Greetings, I have a copy of the original poster which was produced for Magicana in Havana and if someone would like me to e-mail it to them, please drop me a line at <!-- e --><a href="mailto:merlina17@aol.com">merlina17@aol.com</a><!-- e --> and I will gladly send it. Warren Kaps, Past National Pre...

Greetings Richard, thank you for your input of support to the S.A.M. I believe if you read Grandpa Chet's original post on this thread, he is not down on the S.A.M., he is down on the current administration and their perceived "damn the torpedoes full speed ahead" attitude which is what is...

Greetings Naphtalia Magicana from New Zealand had, I believe it was last year, an issue with Lisa Mena on the cover and large article on her. The MUM also had a cover and story featurning Jania Taylor. A good source of information for you would be Celeste Evans who is now living here in Florida near...

A sad day indeed, one no parent should ever have to face. Deepest condolences both to the Thompson and to the Munari families.

Respectfully

Greetings, seems there have been quite a few posts since I was last on the forum. I'm just returning from a GREAT convention -- the Midwest Magic Jubilee, the talent was super, the camaraderie was terrific and the weekend was superb! More importantly, nobody missed their tech rehearsal cues and ever...

Greetings Mr. Townsend, to reply to your question, yes, the forum is still down. The biggest part of the questions being raised are because it was closed at the end of the combined I.B.M./S.A.M. Convention and although the S.A.M. National Council was convened in Louisville, they were not consulted w...

Greetings,

thank you Opie for pointing out that the SAM is bigger than any one individual.

Thank you also for pointing out that Manon is a hard worker and that she is trying to get all the files updated and organized.

Keep a dream in the making

Greetings, my guess would be that you went to yahoogroups to try to read the 3 or 4 messages that are seen which will be in the digest tomorrow morning. Getting that message is often times a temporary glitch with Yahoo and is quite common, in fact sometimes it has been down a day or two. I also hope...

Greetings, thank you all for your posts and comments with regards to the closing of SAMtalking. This morning's digest of SAMtalk has a post by Bruce Kalver stating that he is stepping down for a year while he serves as National President. He has appointed Vinny Grosso to serve as moderator in his st...

Greetings -- My dear Glenn....thank you for your post and input. Anyone who knows you and knows your background and the immesurable experience you have with the internet, wireless communications and ship to shore, etc. knows that you speak from the voice of experience. I too feel as you do, even if ...

Greetings and good morning, Jack, you are posing an interesting question... "Or do the powers that be just don't want to hear and consider it dead?" The fact is that none of the officers have responded either here or on the Magic Cafe although both the President Elect and the 1st Vice Pres...

Greetings everyone, Thank you each and everyone for your input and feedback with regards to the closing of SAMtalking. Joe, just to clarify things, SAMtalking was one of the many benefits of membership of the SAM and it was presented that way to the membership and was offered to those who were inqui...
