Hey Everybody

I loved doing magic tricks since I was about 8 or 9. The time I spent halted for several years, but a few months ago I remembered my avid interest in card tricks. I have read Robert Giobbi's Card College collection - and can perform most of the sleights and tricks quite well.

I reside in Illinois, USA and am a senior in high school. I love playing soccer and volleyball - I play for my school's team.

I wouldn't call myself a beginner with magic, but I still get uneasy performing in front of others. I look forward to participating in this forum and can't wait to hear from those who have had much more experience than I!

Hi and welcome to TM :wink: .

QUESTION:
If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??

Welcome to TalkMagic.

Are you interested in any other areas of magic besides card magic? If so, which ones?

While card magic is easily my favorite, I really like coin and foam ball tricks as well. Basically I love trying all forms of close-up magic.

Hello and welcome.

I think you mean spongeballs, no? It might be a bit hard to find stuff about foamballs.

No worries dude. Was just poking fun at you. No offence meant :P

Of course it's always easy to hide behind my screen and call you a wuss lol. You got no balls? You wanna touch my balls? I better stop before I get banned/kicked off haha.

Lol - no worries. I knew you were kidding; no "offence" taken. (And it's spelled offense for future reference). Foamballs, spongeballs, offence, offense...oh well - it's hard to admit, but i guess we're only human...darn
