MF2,
I was saying that towards Rob's material...more towards your whole general attitude. Nathan

I've gotten a handful of emails regarding "Thoughts Across" and what the routine looks like. Here is a completely honest description of the routine: The performer sits down at a table and is asked to show his strange abilities. He reaches into his jacket and removes a single business card and a Sharpie marker. Placing the items on the table, he asks the lady sitting directly across from him to simply think of a name of someone close to her. The performer now uncaps the marker, picks up the business card and looks intensely at the woman for a few beats then quickly writes something down and tables the card writing side down in full view. As he re-caps and tables the marker, he asks the woman who she thought of and what this person means to her. The performer looks down at the tabled card, then turns it over and slides it in front of the woman where she finds the name she merely thought of written boldly across the card! Some things to consider: * No pres**w whatsoever. * No NW. * The thoughts are not limited to names. You could literally ask them to say the first word that comes to mind. * Works 100% of the time. * Can be used as a prediction instead of a mind reading demonstration by simply changing the framing and premise. ------------------------------- Had missed this. Swami comes to mind but it says no ![]() Sounds very impressive Rob, and very useful ![]() I have also used something by DMadison to accomplish this effect, but the performance is far to "weak-linked" for me to use it very much ![]() Basically you put a prediction on the table, folded, ask them to name something, write it down on a notepad for spelling verification, hand them the pad, and then let them open the prediction, which matches, down to the letter ![]() |

Thoughts Across does indeed deliver on its promise and the ad copy was 100% honest and accurate.
Is it sneaky? Hell yeh It is also a little bold but fairly easy to execute When you consider all is required are some business cards and a pen you have an 'AAA' miracle on your hands (at least I do now so thanks Rob) Chris |

If it does what he says it does (which I think it does as his Eureka Moment is a work of art), then I would buy this as soon as it came out (if I have the money on me and if it does). Why? It sounds like the most practical mentalist trick ever. "Can you read my mind?" now I could say yes, in the cleanest way possible.
Comparing it with my B4, Thoughts across sounds like it would have quite a bit of premeditated prediction to it, and a completely free choice of word, which is infinitely more broad then B4's 4 selection choice. Ofcourse, the invisible compromise (Kit updated my vocabulary from weak links ![]() ![]() To make a long story short, I am hotly anticipating Thoughts Across. And to Nathan, finally figured out what I was getting mixed up with. I was confusing Thoughts Across with the version Rob mentioned of Strange Feeling that would work 100% of the time. Finally understand it. (the jumble, not the trick ![]() |

"Thoughts Across" has, indeed, been released, but it is not for sale. I have decided to make it a limited private release (that's right, I'm giving it away) after much thinking about it.
Those who already have the routine know that this is strong stuff and I'm sure that they, too, are glad this is not being released to the masses. -rob |

Thoughts across is brilliant! When I saw the video that Rob kindly provided with the manuscript, I had to double take! There was no way it could have been done!!! But it can!
Its a brilliant combination of ideas which is so straight forward and a really Cheshire cat grin moment when its performed!

Triple bummer, just had the perfect chance to use Thoughts Across.
Was sitting in class, and this guy asks me, "Hey Carlos, can you show me a trick?" I'd done one very powerful card trick for him, but I didn't have anything else on me at the time so I had to say maybe next time. Thoughts Across would have been absolutely perfect. ![]() |

That would have been a decent time to use "A Strange Feeling".
