When the stitches, caused by your METAL Walsh Vanishing Cane, are removed.

You finally quit banging your head as you go in the sub trunk.

When you're standing in line, in another city and someone asks if you're that guy on T.V.

When you have a miniature lay-out of your illusions and your truck interior, so you can see how everything fits.

When you have 200,000 of your own "roll" tickets printed.

When you can pay people to sit on three telephone lines so you never miss a call.

When someone offers to give you a floating lady and you turn them down because you already have 5 other versions.

When you finally move out of your garage and rent an industrial space.

You know, none of these are really funny

When you own 4 copies of the Dante Trunk Book.

When you've ripped-up a thousand Soft soap boxes.

When you've worn out your table and need a new one.

When you have two different versions of your music on a playlist and take the complete sound system to play them.

When two Genii Lifts take-up a corner in your building.

When you can tie your bow tie using only one hand..... either hand.

When you're dry cleaning bill is greater then your electric bill.

When people walk into your office and sarcastically say "Gee... do you think that poster on the wall - with your face on it- is big enough?

When you can truthfully say that all your income comes from performing shows.

That you can sit down with anyone, at the Castle, and contribute to the conversation.

When you could type another million lines here, but you can't because you have to go do a show.

So... which one is the lighter... the lighter or the wallet?

When you bounce all your change before leaving a tip.

When you have a Home Make Over show come into your house and remove all the cards from your ceiling.

When you're buying a plumbing part and the clerk asks what it's used for and you tell him he wouldn't understand.

When you push shoe laces into themselves before buying them.

When you go to the sewing section and play with all the thread.

When security comes over to you and you hand them a card.... like that explains your actions LOL

I'm guilty of this one... When you buy a machine to make something - one time - just so you can say you did it.

When your license plate has anything to do with show business.

When you cut a large round hold in your favorite briefcase.

When you cut a large round holes in the bottom of a shoe.

When you have 30 different sizes of magnets just because some day, you'll need them.

When you register on this forum with a phony name so you can irritate other people.

When you know that an Elmsley Count is not a real title bestowed on royalty.

When someone asks you about some obscure method and you tell them what page it's on and in what book without looking.

When someone says "do it again" and you don't.

When you pretend to do it again but actually do something different they like even better.

When you forget to bring an egg to the theatre and you convince someone to go home and get one.

Better... you don't have a tux shirt so you convince someone in the audience to trade their white shirt for yours and you give them back their shirt wringing wet. (Don't ask)

You buy the ultimate gimmick and immediately take it apart, so you can improve it.

You were so excited buying the ultimate gimmick and found out three days later that the 'super ultimate universal gimmick' had just been launched and you cannot wait to get that also.

Now THIS was a funny page.... but ULTIMATELY won't we come up with a Super Funny page?

So you buy a dozen super ultimate gimmicks and must sell them immediately to get the universal gimmick which ONLY is wider elastic then the ultimate gimmick ... so there you sit with a piece of elastic wondering what miracles can be done... and ultimately you believe that it was money well spent in a universal kind of way.

You know you're a magician when you can name 30 tricks that use elastic... the ultimate gimmick!

We should put a book out. 30 ways to use elastic. it would sell in the double digits, over time... like a hundred years.
