See http://www.colonmichiganmagic.com for event schedules including FAB events. Abbott's has a boat load of stuff coming out of storage being revealed Wednesday morning for sale, plus there are several magic estate sales/auctions going on this week as well in Colon. Probably the busiest Magic Week (in my view) in Colon history- don't you dare miss it! I started attending back in the Sixties... this will be a dynamite year. John usually is a spotlight operator for the Abbott evening shows-may have one of the best seats in the house from his lofty platform! Fired UP!

My thanks to Dodd Vickers at the magicnewswire.com to posting our interviews from Colon- and thanks to John Sturk for graciously letting me use all his recording stuff and showing me how to use it (he could have easily done it himself) to interview Wilma Rench, June Horowitz (she is now age 97, the first female President of the IBM)and Sonny Johnson of Indianapolis. I thought the Get-Together was wonderful this year- people really seemed into it and the shows were terrific. I was able to find some great stuff to add to my magic collection too.
