FIRST: I am continuing to ship your orders on a daily basis. Thank you for your continued support.
A while ago I programed my phone to play a cash register sound every time someone places an order (not an original idea). My friends find it entertaining. One time I was having lunch with Harry Anderson and it was going off every few minutes and he made a wise crack of me being like an investor tracking the market, but later made a very astute observation. He said that this is like therapy for me, giving me positive reinforcement for what I am doing. And he was right. Every time I hear that cash register sound it puts a smile on my face.
The reason I mention that is that last Thursday I came out of the shower and noticed my phone going crazy doing cash register impressions, cha ching, cha ching…
And everyone was ordering my new Gigantic Comedy Prediction. Turns out that Jeff Hobson surprised me with an unbelievable endorsement of the routine in his newsletter. You can read it and subscribe to it: HERE

Quantum Coins And Cards:
This is RPR’s latest release. After their previous Symphony Coins and Polarity Cards were released, many people, including me, immediately realized that you can combine those two tricks to create a great matrix routine. I remember Al Faria putting one out in the 1980s using four coins and two bills.
What Greg Gleason and RPR did is take that idea one step further by adding camouflage to the coins to make this as clean looking a matrix as you can imagine, and it is practically self-working. They also include some other nice handlings; I especially liked the coin through glass top table.
But keep in mind that because of the camouflage the basic matrix routine cannot easily be done too close. It is however ideal for use over video conferencing, formal close-up, TV and on stage where you are projecting the magic.

GIGANTIC COMEDY PREDICTION MORE INFO & BUY: HERE This is an ideal stand-up routine with intrinsic situational comedy. Even if you are not a comedian the situational comedy that is built into the routine will always get you laughs. But not just laughs… The magic is strong and there is even a duel reality ending where the spectator and the audience experience two different effects and both are impactful! Comes complete with a Gigantic Prediction Card (10.5” x 15”) that is transformational, a set of Jumbo Forcing Cards (5” x 7”), and access to a 30-minute video tutorial featuring Meir Yedid, Jim Spinnato, Rick Wilcox, and George Schindler. | CARD SILK SET MORE INFO & BUY: HERE There are many routines published, recorded, and marketed using card silks. A card silk is a silk scarf with a picture of a playing card on it. Of the many published routines, the most engaging are the ones that use two silks. One with a blank card pictured and one with a playing card. This two-silk set allows you to present sucker like routines with you missing and then making good. It is also an excuse to magically change one silk into another. Our silk set which is ideal for Thumb Tip use includes two 9-inch silks: A full-color blank card and a full-color King of Hearts card. |
