My Book

Postby MagicBill » Jun 17th, '05, 09:42



Hey all. I am currently writing my first magic book, featuring some of my own routines and sleights. I can't think of a good title though! Here are some of the possibilities I've come up with:

Impossi-bill magic
Must be magic, isn’t skill
All hands on deck – the glory of magic at sea
Unforgettable Magic!
Ace up my sleeve, Queen down my sock
Ho, ho, ho it’s magic
Billy does tricks
Suits you Sir
Magic in the kitchen
Easy to master, difficult to perform, card miracles volume 103
Unforgettable Magic!
DJ magic - music with 2 decks! (one red and one blue)
Reel magic in the cinema
Unforgettable Magic!

:lol:

Any further suggestions would be most welcome!!!

UnBILLeivaBILL?

(Er, I think 'Jack down my sock' may mean something slightly unsavoury in US speak - I could be wrong but perhaps Knave instead of Jack? Just a thought!)

How about, " Terra-BILL to Un-BILL-evil-BILL" 101 Ways to perform the M-posse-BILL by Magic Bill, "Can-o-BILL","Stack-a-BILL","Riffle-a-BILL", "Flourish-a-BILL", Palm-a-BILL", "Cut-a-BILL", count etc etc etc - i could go on. "Scrub the decks" by Pirate Bill Argh Harr ,sorry. I like alot of the ones you have already but suits you might land you in court - i hear paul whitehouse is a bit of a moneygrabber ( dont quote me ). Anyway good luck.

The house that Jack billed (built),
Duck-billed magic trick,
Take note(s),
The Bill,
No way Note,
Well I be bill, ew! (Read that backwards)
Paper money,
Wobill (wobble),
On that note...,
Papier mache,
Bill and/or Ben,
Holding that note

Have fun! ( I love thinking up names for tricks, my latest one is called 'Gridlock')
