Hello all ..
have been lurking and enjoying this site for a year. i rediscovered this wonderful hobby at 52 years of age after being a very shy aspiring magician back in the seventies. my misdirection redirected badly and my patter fell flat. ;D my family loved my shows for the comedic pratfalls and i, after much effort, put it aside assuming I was too introverted. Fast forward, and after years of performing on stage in a different medium I needed a hobby. why I didn't think of magic .. well that's mE brain for yA. long story short .. my mid life crisis is magic and I've dusted off my fingers, got my sleight of hand back up to speed and am having a wonderful time using my neighbors child, whom my girlfriend is nanny for, as my test subject. he now LOVES magic. my first magic store back in calgary in the seventies was 'Micky Hades intl.; at his house in the basement and my first effects were his finger chopper and some old tenYo before I knew what tenYo was. Hence the tenYo section has been quite fun to explore. Love coins and card sleights as well. alright .. long winded but with enthusiasm .. I've enjoyed and learned so much from all of you here so thanks for beinG! be good to yourselves! |

Welcome ohGr, (there's a sentence you don't here often).
I like an informative intro. Your computer is throwing in the odd capitalization though. Your performing character does not have to match your natural inclinations so don't worry about being introverted stopping you. It is just a workaround. -Mary Mowder |

Cheers Mary!
I wish my computer was responsible for the abstract capitalizations; but alas I have only myself to blame! Duly noted and thank you for your advice regarding my childhood fears. Music was the key to unlocking that block. -Kevin Ogilvie |
