    Anyone into magic?

    I mean like sleight of hand, tricks, etc, etc. I just got my first magic trick today (the hotrod). What tricks do you do?

    If the saying is true that we are what we eat, aren't we all just cannibals?

    Hey, there is a ton of great books out there. There is one by a street magician, but I forget his name. But the title is something like "street magic up close". It is by far the best close up magic resource out there. Good luck!

      Well, I've got my roomate to tutor me. He's done magic before, mostly coin magic. I think if I can get good with the hotrod, I'll be more likely to keep into it.

        I used to love magic. I mostely did coin and card, but then I just stoped doing it, no one to show it to. I job shadowed a magician once for 7th grade, that was alot of fun. He showed me how to do an amazing card trick. It never fails to confuse people. I'm best with cards. PM me if you want and I'll explain some tricks.

          Well, I want to try to master the hotrod (my presentation is less than believable right now). I think I might be intrerested more in card magic than coin magic (that's my roomate's deal), so I'll shoot you a PM. Of course, if I learn card magic, I'll never be able to be a dealer at Mohegan Sun.

              Hey Timmee,

              I can make my arm go around in a complete circle like David Blaine. I can also make a coin disappear into my forearm. But, that's about it.

              When I went to Vegas, we went to a couple of magic shows that were really awesome! Did you watch that show where they gave away some of the magicians secrets?

              By the way, Shatner is Supreme....just had to get that in there.

                Yeah, I saw some of that show. It was pretty cool. My roomate is trying to help me out with the hotrod, and with some basic coin magic. I also have been getting some help from the guy that runs the local magic shop.
