Blaine admites to doing tricks but he loves to mess with people. He does want to blur the line. I have never heard him claim to actually have "the gift".

Forgive me if I am jumping to conclusions about your performing experience. Performers without "much stage experience often find it difficult to accurately measure the length of their performance. Be sure to run through your act with a stop watch several times to be sure you are keeping it unde...

I have taken 2 years of Meisner Acting classes. I have taken improvisation classes, acting of camera classes etc etc. I am a big fan of the Meisner acting technique as it gets rid of a though process and makes everything in the moment. Improv tries to do that but has been less successful at it for m...

The IRS tax code book keeps me up at night. It makes my money disappear better than I do.

Elliot, you know you only mention your wife's food as the best is because your from Rockland and you know it will get back to her if you you don't say that.

the amount of silver used would need to have a face value of $10

There are reports of new dollar coins coming out this week. Want to see what they are like. Does anyone know if it is the old dollar size or similiar to their last dollar coin?

Brian Marks

I am pretty sure there are only 5 magicians or at least it appears that way. hmmm

Derren Brown claims more use on NLP and hypnotism than the actual method uses. Learn mentalism from Banachek and others. 13 steps should be read first.

Brian Marks

good choice.

Gary Kurtz messed it up.
Marc Salem messed it up.
The guy with the spectator majorly messed it up.

Brian Marks

It was obvious RIchard was joking when I read it. I thought the same thing.

I being a former Parent Assembly member think its in a hospital so everyone can get their pacemake adjusted while at a Friday night meeting.

Brian Marks

Ill be placing an order shortly. I work trade shows as a salesman so it should make an interesting read.

Brian Marks

Jamy Ian Swiss has a booklet on his website with thread tricks.

Brian Marks

yeah stay away from technical crews and stuff. Might you try mentalism? packs small plays big and you don't necessarily need the technical support of a crew to pull off.

Does the author pick up women with the tricks? Probably not.

I saw an article through AOL today. They show a shell coin of a US half dollar and a Canadian $2 coin with no obvious gimmick.

I am fan of 30 Rock. I am a bigger fan of Tina Fey. Sort of knew her, hung out with her once or twice with a group, at a bar, after a show someone did type of deal. Sort of like magicians at a convention.

Richard need not apologize. Derek said he posts drunk.

There isn't any midweek magic shows. The best thing in to hang out at Fantasmo. They have flyers for any shows that might be going on that I don't know about. I do suggest checking out Time Out New York. Magic shows could appear in one of several listings in it like the comedy section. Monday Night ...

I've known Wes for years and I don't see anything here that is arrogant or condesending from his stand point. Some people are just overreacting. As for the security measures, if you don't like not being able to print it out, you may indeed have a point. But if Wes is releasing material, I think its ...

Brian Marks

you could fill the audience with magicians who will stare silently at part where applause is usually required. :) at the end of the ceremony you make your wife disappear. or you can a well known magician to make an appearence and ask him how to do it. :sleep: you could do produce white doves. A leas...

Your right! It takes 2! One to buy the video and copy it and the other to watch it and perform it exactly as seen on the video.

I think Ricky Jay is above the label "magician" If he was still under that term, he would be the Amazing Ricky or something.

I have been rescheduled for Oct 21st.
