6. You won’t play card games with your cards.


Worse than that, you have so many decks you don't know where all of them are. Many of them are special editions that the U.S Playing Card Co. put out, along with Ellusionist and Theory11 just to get you to buy it because it's "different". Best of all, quite a few of them are made STRICTLY for the purpose of performing magic tricks with them (ie Svengali, stripper, hummer, etc)! ;-)

You might also be a magician if your sock drawer is not only full of magic tricks, but you have more than one sock drawer and NOT ONE OF THEM HAS A SOCK IN IT!!! Smile

You might also be a magician if, while packing for vacation, you try to see if there are any magic books, DVDs or tricks that will fit in with the rest of your luggage. You may even go so far as to dedicate one whole bag or suitcase to the effort!
Magic! The quicker picker-upper!

You know you're an ESCAPE ARTIST if you see a nude bondage photo, and are looking at the RESTRAINTS.

Steve, ROTFLMAO. You are so right. I went to a srtait jacket site just yesterday. In my opinion it was more of a bondage site. Like you, I was looking at the restraints first.
Magic is like Science,
Both are fun if you do it right!

Your girlfriend daily looks into your eyes and whispers lovingly "can we leave now, please?"
