The landlord sounds like an idiot. By not wanting to spend the money to fix this problem, he is actually losing money by not being able to rent out the space.

WE FOUND A NEW LOCATION
Hopefully, we will be moving sometime in June to a second floor location (no elevator) in Rockville, MD near the intersection of Rockville Pike and Nicholson Lane. It’s above a Spa store and Theater Vision and use to be the Hockey Stop and a Martial Arts Studio. We will give you more details when we finally get to sign the lease. I believe the address is 5544 Nicholson Lane, Rockville, MD. We must construct a simple hallway to the second exit door before the County Government will allow us to move and they demand a Maryland Certified Architect’s stamp or seal on a simple drawing. He even joked the drawing could be on a paper napkin. Does anyone know of a Maryland Certified Architect who can help Barry’s Magic Shop? This is an added expense we certainly did not expect for our relocation and we cannot go forward until they get this drawing. It has been a very difficult 9 months for us because of the Eminent Domain issue and, God willing, all of this will be over soon if we can get this stamp or seal. This new location is very large and spacious which will allow us to have regular magic shows for families, teach-in seminars, Open Magic Night, Magic Idol (similar to American Idol) and magic classes. Email us or call us (Tues. thru Sat. 11 – 6) if you know an architect. We are so close. Love to all, Susie, Frankie the Wonder Dog and Barry I know the Senior VP of an architectual firm based out of Montgomery County, so I'll be giving them a call in the next few days... ~Jonathan

I just spoke to Joe at Barry's Magic Shop, he says the latest word is that Barry is expected to be released from the hospital today. Joe said that Barry has been talking about trying to do a show he has booked for tonight.

Per Joe, they were saying it was food poisoning, but I still haven't talked to Susie or Barry yet.

Ah, no fun. I had a bad case of that last year. I suppose I should have gone to the hospital, given the fact that I had slept for almost 30 hours straight after puking for 24 hou....I'm gonna stop talking now...
If anyone talks to him, let him know that he has concerned fans... ~Jonathan

How'd the press conference go? I was in class during the time it was supposed to have occurred, so I don't know if it was televised live or later. I havent been able to find anything on any news websites yet, either.

The old shop on Georgia Avenue is now closed. I was there on Saturday, along with George Bradley and Patrick, when Susie turned off the Open sign and locked the doors. It was kind of sad.

I bet. But they are looking forward to their new location and new opportunities there.

Barry is a wonderful person. Met him once and he was kind and generous with his time. Glad to see he got a new location.
