Mr. Kaufman is displaying strong psychic abilities. There is no doubt that his prophecies will come to pass.
Not the one who created the Potter Index.

Thanks, Scott--look forward to your reports!
(FWIW, I just found out that MAGIC Live overlaps for a day with the Creation Official Star Trek Convention at the Rio: https://www.creationent.com/cal/st_lasvegas.html --sounds like Geek heaven in LV...)

Pre-MAGIC Live event : Johnny Thompson, Rick Maue, and Paul Vigil on mentalism. A Penguin Live taping for the future. Some cool effects. I hope we can all be as sharp-minded as Johnny as time goes by.

The trading cards at the opening night party were photos of magicians' iconic effects and props. No faces. The object of the game, as in the past, was to trade cards to have a complete set of nine. Then once you identified the magicians you could seek them out for autographs.
The dealers' room was jumping as always and there were about 10 prize packages worth about $1000 each. And there were ice cream bars.
The main events begin Monday morning at 10 o'clock.

I posted most of my thoughts on Little Egypt Magic at the usual http://littleegyptmagic.com/magic.html
I also recommend Scott's podcasts. I found his interview with Stan Allen at the end of day 4 to be the most interesting.

Yes erdnasephile, it was heaven I arrived earlier to Las Vegas and attended Star Trek Convention on Saturday. Next year overlaps again. I have to evaluate Star Trek/Magic Live or Genii Convention and now that Richard has released the names in Genii Convention is a hard decision.

It's not a hard decision.

Marc Summers, in his talk at MagicLive, mentioned being on Jay Leno alongside Burt Reynolds. Here's some back story.

What was the name of the guy with the zebra act?
This is a different guy with a zebra act, right? https://youtu.be/x-SRA47S0JA?t=1m25s

Glenn Singer, aka El Glen-o Grande.
Your video is not him. This is him, doing more or less what he did at MagicLive.
