Ok, I see what you are saying, so here is Presentation #2.


Ring is placed into hand, lighter is removed and ring is melted into nothingness. "Ta-da!" Spectators look at you like you are crazy, and demand there ring back. "I can't get it back," the magician says sheepishly, "But I have a spare I give out for occasions like these. I think this one actually looks a bit like yours"

Magician reveals ring on shoelace. "I keep it in the safest place. Right by my soul... of my foot." Ring is untied, and silently given to the spectator, who discovers the ring is there exact finger ring.


TA-DA #2

Is that better?

No. It's no better at all.

In fact, in some ways, it's boring.

Interlace is actually so strong that does it even NEED patter Michael?

Again, I repeat, you're digging your own holes as to WHY you need to slow down and wait.

Chill, brother.

Michael.. if you felt that your presentations were that strong.. you wouldnt accept criticism as easily as you do and replace one cr*p presentation with a second, sometimes even, worse one.

Im not saying I have the greatest presentational skills but.. I am certainly not pompous.. something which has haunted you since the day you arrived here.

As Seige pointed out.. there is no need to work on complex scripts or rubbish ones, the effect is so strong you could do it silently..

I bet my bottom dollar that on the off chance you have performed this for a real live person, that they have saw you blatantly 'do the move' because we all know that youR FT is not the best.

mate, bang on all you want, but those youtube videos spoke volumes.. you cant just be camera shy.. with anything.. you are either good or you need to work on it. And that doesnt mean your bad, it means your not good enough.. which is not the end of the world.

And this isnt having a go, this is responding to the pomposity of your reply

I love how every topic Michael posts ends with a discussion of him being too pompous.

Ill spend my summer classic palming a coin.

I just love the way how every post that Michael Kras writes, somehow ends up in the Innuendo Bingo Thread in some shape or form!

David,

I have visions of you burning your kitchen down when compiling that cooking book.

I'm interested about that Ripleys belive it or not, any idea of when it will be recorded and aired?

Can anybody please help me? I'm having terrible problems controlling my streetmagic- I can't walk down a street without turning into a pub.

Well I use the alcohol more as a brine, marinade, sauce or something like that. Nothing that will really flame up. I already have 20 recipies and no burns.. 8)

I am not sure as of now, but will keep you updated as it progresses. I will be performing a few of my original escapes, a couple that are very dangerous..
