I am not an easy person to get ahold of and I kinda like it that way. My friends and family know where I am; usually on a plane, in an airport, or on a ship at sea. (Hey, I just past 4 million miles with American Airlines - seriously!) I don’t know if I should get excited or feel pathetic. OK, moving on. I recently got an e-mail from someone who had been trying to track me down for some time. He was asking me for advice and so I replied to the best of my ability. Then something dawned on me as I was typing my response. Boom! ‘I’ve written this letter before and not just once.’ Yep, it’s been a while, but this information has passed from my lips and hands before; many times.

Legendary magic inventor Anders Moden has kindly shared with us a hilarious effect involving goofy teeth. He’s made an awesome PDF for us to learn the effect.
Ethan Thompson has kindly sent us a PDF for a color-changing CD effect. Also included is my routine (using Ethan’s method) for changing Elvis into Sinatra. Have fun!
This is a fun Halloween influenced trick you can pull if you happen to be running OS X Leopard with iChat and a special plugin. I know that kind of eliminates 80% of our readers, but it’s still worth a look:
Francis McAllister shares with us a very clever second-sight routine that can be done with an accomplice over a cell phone.
U.K. Magician Matthew Leatherbarrow shows us his filmmaking roots with a highly visual magic effect that tells the story of a stick man that likes to get around.
The simplest of card tricks involving a cell phone - made extremely magical.
