Baffling BS by Larry Becker and Lee Earle, mentalism magic
February 8, 2008
“The bumper sticker,” begins the performer as he shows a selection of them - all of which are cut in half, “is a source of 5-Star wisdom often using four-letter words. They’re a short form expression of attitude, philosophy, and humor. You can find them at truck stops, novelty shops, and bargain swaps.”
He shows the halves of two different bumper stickers saying, “If you cut them in half and mismatch them, the results can be interesting.” (The audience will laugh at a couple of the combinations, we designed them for that purpose.)
Placing a business envelope in full view, he continues, “There are halves of two different bumper suckers in here (they can be seen through the address window) that usually combine with others to get an amusing reaction.”
“One of you will choose another half from these,” the performer continues, spreading the stack of severed stickers face up for a nearby participant. “As you can see, there are more than two dozen random possibilities. Which one would you like.” Read more

Attract Women With Magic Tricks
January 26, 2008
Performing magic involves tons of audience interaction. What if you could use that to your advantage and effortless impress and attract women by simply performing magic? The bottom line is this: women love magic. Ask 100 women if they want to see a magic trick and I guarantee at least 95 say yes. The other 5 are probably boring and you wouldn?t want to get to know them anyway. Read more
Why Magicians Shouldn’t do Magic Tricks
January 26, 2008
Should any Magician perform Magic Tricks? This may seem like a stupid question, but bare with me. This is a question of perceived value. If you are, or consider yourself to be, a Magician, are you an amateur, professional or semi-professional? Call yourself an amateur and you risk people assuming that you are not very good. Call yourself a semi-professional and people could assume that you will be cheaper to book than a ‘full’ professional. Call yourself a professional and people will assume that you do this full time and have no other source of income. They will also assume that you are extremely good at magic. Read more
