... nothing is trash to you.

... restaurants put a sign on the table saying "Do not bend the silver!"

... you run out of junks and trash to do experiments on.

... there is no string, tape or glue left in the house.

... you almost blew up your house because of some weird experiments.

... you tune in The Gene Autry Show every day just to watch (over and over) Pat Buttram fumble his magic tricks.

... you keep making the same prop over and over again until you perfect your building skills.

You trim your bushes to look like top hats and rabbits...

... when your friends call to see if you are home and say "Has he reappeared yet?"

When people you've never met hand you a dollar asking you to make it into a hundred.

...you perform for free to a millionaire.

When people you've never met hand you a dollar ...

...you bring a deck of playing cards into the bath tub for practice.

... you wake up one morning and discover you've become a character in the TV Show, The Magician.

You time your show, to the second

... people ask you if your assistant knows how the tricks work.

You can build a card castle out of jumbo cards...

...you post as much as James.

Your cups are starting to rust out...

... your better clothes are in the car.
