Tamara asked whether she should go to a local magic school, and I told her that if she penetrated the French Drop & Heb Production with a Magic Bead, she’d be able to deduce all the principles of magic from that, provided she did so in front of an audience at least once per day, as well as before the mirror. The whole principle rests on the fact that you have to learn ALL the basics of magic — misdirection, pause, timing, passes — everything, in order to do what I do on-camera here:

Save yourself time, money & grief. Don’t enroll in an expensive, time-consuming Magic School, unless you plan to use it as a social networking gig as well.

Get a Magic Bead and Master the French Drop! You can order the beads from me individually — they vary in price, quality and rarity and run anywhere from $5 a bead to $5,000 a bead for a 4,500 year old antiquity with some pedigree papers.

You can also order my DVDs on the French Drop.

You may NOT order the Advanced French Drop until you post a video with your French Drop acceptably performed at least three times in a row before an audience — the deal is, they have to be equally astonished the third time they’ve seen the exact same trick two times beforehand.

You will note that I did NOT reveal the secret, even when showing the television audience the “unsafe” angle! Go thou, and do likewise! This blog, by the way, is an example of the real value of electronic blogs — we did the video just hours ago, it got posted and I wrote the blog just a while after that, and you have the opportunity, if you know to look here, to vew — note that I did NOT say “read”, but “view” — the blog. It has color, sound, movement, immediacy and immersion. You can’t get that on a sheet of paper, at least not yet.
