 What a time with the Magic of Jimmy Brown at the July meeting.  Thanks

for sharing with us.                                      

This month -   WIDE OPEN MIKE meeting!
  A SECOND CHANCE!
Remember that great trick you were going to do at the meeting last April, and then you couldn't find the gimmick in time for the meeting?  Well, now that you've found it, you have a second chance to do that trick.
 
Remember the meeting on rope magic, and you wanted to show everybody your super duper version of the India rope trick, but you couldn’t go to that meeting because your mother-in-law’s birthday party was on the same night?  Well, now you have a second chance to perform this mystery of India. 
 
Remember your famous vanishing bagel with olive and cream cheese trick?  You know how you keep asking Cliff to schedule an open mike session featuring bagel magic, but he hasn't done it yet. Well, this is your chance to demonstrate some of those fine old bagel routines that many of us may have forgotten.  Who knows, you may give bagel magic a second chance.
 
Remember that trick you tried do at the meeting back in March of 2007?  Remember how it bombed?  Well, now you have a second chance to do that trick, so we can all watch it bomb again.
 
And if you don't come prepared to do something Cliff is going to have you watch him do the 21-card trick. Under normal circumstances, Cliff can be pretty boring, but when he does the 21-card trick . . .
 
SO COME PREPARED!
Everyone needs to participate.

 
Harry Keefe is still recovering from his back injury.
 
Don't forget the Paul Gertner seminar. Sept 27th at
1 PM at the church in Troy.
 You must sign up ahead of time because if we don't have 20 people, he won't come.  Go to the ring's website and all the info will be there, or contact Dave  MacDonald at david@davidmacdonaldmagic.com.
