I decided to try working with Morgan Dollars and had to learn to classic palm a larger coin than what I am used to.
In order to feel comfortable, I just classic palmed the Morgan and went through my daily routines as usual. Well! I went to the bathroom and while I was zipping up, I dropped the Morgan into the toilet. I couldn't flush because I was afraid the coin may get lost and also get stuck in the plumbing. And the moral of the story is ...... Use common sense. I love to share my screwups.

Maybe just use the finger palm--more secure!

I can't think of any effect that I'd be performing in the WC. There are times when you should take a break.

I was'nt performing any effects. I was just spending the day, keeping the coin in classic palm position so I feel natural with it.
But you're right. That was not the time.

Welcome to CA, coins anonymous.
My name is Harris and I'm a coin addict. Right before the I DO 's the 6 Morgans dropped as I took Annie's hand. The above incident is not true, but could be if you do not stop in time. The names were not changed to protect the guilty. Step 1. I am powerless over practice and my life is unmanageable. Step 2. Came to believe a power greater than me be it BOBO or the NY COIN DVD's... With tongue in cheek Workers we all have these type if stories. Why do we laugh change the name and the story is told of us. Sounds better in Latin. Harris

If I ever meet you, please don't perform coins across to a spectators hand for me. :0)

So, now I'm increasing my areas of not practicing to include:
1) Driving (Safety first!) 2) Walking on concrete (drops happen) 3) Pooping. |
