Thanks Ken for your words of wisdom on MSN this afternoon. That has given me a whole new outlook to the effect. A BIG thank you.

I think there are great merits to starting a show on a near fail followed by a great success.
With bank night, I have been working on an envelope deal or no deal presentation where every participant wins something nominal -some of the lower number blue fighres for those of you familiar withthe deal or no deal format. I think as an opener, giving the spectators some good feelings on effect one can only be a good thing. wow I worded that badly. |

I have never bothered about that "loose / win" stuff spectators may feel... and I will keep on without bothering...
However, as a side note, I like to keep rotating my Bank Nights and Chair Routines (and having created various versions of my own, I can). One of those routines is only three envelopes and the two spectators seated on two different chairs freely pick up two envelopes, leaving for you the third (and last) one. Then you have them open their envelopes and both of them win some prize. Their prizes (could be a lottery ticket for one and $20 for the other) happen to be - respectively - under the chair they FREELY CHOSE to seat at the start of the routine. You now open your envelope which says, "I know that this will be left to me because both spectator will win the prizes I chose for them". This way you can't loose (pun intended) and they are BOTH mystified (as well as the whole audience) and happy.
Then you'll rise right before my eyes, on wings that fill the sky, like a phoenix rising!
