Some Fun Stuff

Went to the local Wal-mart not to long ago and picked up what I thought was a cool thing. A four DVD set of 57 classic television western shows. For Just five bucks. These are the old TV westerns like Bat Masterson, Roy Rogers, The Cisco Kid, The Range Rider and The Lone Ranger.

I know I am dating myself but I used to watch a lot of these old shows when I was a kid - on Saturday mourning - before cartoons took over most of the Saturday Mourning time slot.

It has been very nice to see these old shows again.

Also - as I have been saying I am enjoying doing shows and doing close up at the two family restaurants that I do each week. Adding more magic to the table routine - this week a coins through table where the coins go through the table one at a time.

Last night when performing this magic stunt - I had a Mom and a Dad laughing as they watched their two kids - look for the hole in the table after watching each of the 4 coins pass through the table - one at a time. That is the fun part of the job for me - watching the parents have a good time watching their kids have fun and react to the magic tricks - performed by a magician!

It is not just the magic most of it is about the entertainment and the audience having fun and reacting to the magic.

Fun Stuff.

Hey Michael,

It's amazing - Roy Rogers and the rest got the "bad guys" every week in less than 30 minutes. For each half hour program.

I have not been able to post in your blog lately Michael - the blog tiff that verifies the poster doesn't seem to load in.

I drop by for a visit - today.
