Hey Guys

I just thought of a funny little game. List anything magical that you know, but next to them write down what you think the name of the thing would mean to a layman:

I'll start:

1) Double lift - What Pam Anderson did
2) Arscanio Spread - With toast please
3) Hofzinser Spread Control - Get ready for that rubber glove . . .
4) Tenkai Palm - More awesome than than the five fingered touch of death
5) Downs Palm - (I won't sink that low)
6) Buck naked - (I'll skip this one, too)
7) Greg Wilson - Greg Wilson! (Magician's note: No, not THAT Greg Wilson, the OTHER
Greg Wilson)
8) Slip Cut - Why would anybody want to do that!?

I'm to go home now and use my enormous amount of free time to see what else I can add to the list.

Small red balls - "Medic!"
Classic Pass - "You come here often?"
Palming it - "Is it that lonely being a magician?"
Final load - "...and then he just grabbed his chest and died!"
Kepplinger holdout - "Why are you always so stingy with your kepplingers?"
Vanishing wand - "Uh huh. Is that anything like the sausage trick?"
Multiple shift - "Can't they get anyone else to deliver pizzas?"
