Greetings,
I first perused this site as a result of surfing for the word "escapology."
When I saw so many familiar names (Norm Bigelow, Ian McColl, Scott Guinn, Peter Marucci, etc.)I just had to join.
I have been a performer and enthusiast for over 30 years. My first love is escapology, with mentalism and bizarrism hot on its heels.
I perform mentalism & bizarrism for close-up and strolling, escapes for busking and promotion stunts, and a Harry Potter style 'wizard' magic show for children.

Howdy Steve, just wanted to welcome you to the Café...Derek Dean

Hi Steve,

Glad you decided to join us and welcome to the Café. You've probably had a chance to look around and can't help but be impressed by the friendly atmosphere at the Café. Please don't hesitate to post or ask a question of your own as it's a friendly place. Have fun!

Hi Steve,
Welcome to the Café. The Café is such a unique place for Magic. It is ever expanding and has nearly 13.500 members throughout the world. It will make a great contribution to your magic perspective. Do not forget to post often. You will find many new friends and many new ideas here. I predict you will like the Café.Please grab a chair and begin to type your next post while you have a cup of strong Turkish coffee on my bill.

The final post:

This is it, folks. I'm out of here.
I'm tired of useless parries with posters who patently refuse to see a difference between legitimate deception (acknowledging the source of one's abilities) and paranormal fraud (claiming to have real powers).

I'm going about my business and leaving others to go about theirs.

Fare thee well.

Steve

Wait Steve. Don't go. I wanted to ask you a question.

I am so shocked that you have gor bored so quick. I wish you could stay and enjoy here...

Maybe I WAS hasty, Tora.
I think I shall start again on a new footing.
Thank you.
Steve

Glad to have you back. Don't let an ill conceived post here or there put you off. It's ONLY a forum and everyone has an opinion whether they've earned the right to have one or not (just like belly buttons).

Regards,
