Oh wow, this seems would be an never ending thing. It will be a club but there is no way you can prevent a secret leaking to the public. Sooner or later someone will spill the beans.

I bet it works better than we are guessing it will.

We haven't seen the letters of admission and denial yet.

This is a lot like rushing a fraternity.

If the Mayans are right, then be sure to cancel your recurring payment in time to use the refund for a big party on December 20. (but no sooner or you will be blackballed)

I finally put together a video from the footage I shot. In it, I satirize how magic is marketed to us hobbyist and professional magicians. THe video is okay, but suffers from a noticeable audio hum on one of my microphones. Oh well. I can probably eliminate the hum, but that means more time on the workstation. I also used the wrong f-stop so the bright areas are a little bit washed out, but I am not sure the end result is worth retaping the whole thing. It's all for fun, so enjoy.

If you have ten minutes to spare, give it a look and let me know what you think of the idea. It is not directly related to RS, but it deals with marketing magic products so it bears some relationship.

Kind of sad that I wanted to order the Blammo Wonder Deck. Sigh.

Bill, I think you did an outstanding job!

When I called, they were sold out. Dammit.

Excellent work, Bill - thank you for sharing that! Smile

Hilarious Bill,
BUT, I want it! Give me my Blammo deck! Oh, I also want that incredibly classy red silk vest. Looks like Fabrice made that. Does it have a topit? Great job,
James

Hi James! Thanks for the nice words. Still having the big time in China I see. And to Bill. Nice work on the Magic Shopping Network.

Ok... Someone make something out of that!
If you ever get to a point where words have no meaning, you're probably talking to a dog.

I want to hire Bill AND Bob!

LMAO!

Gonna scour the internet for a Blammo Wonder Deck now! Hear it's a collector's item!

Bill, Will you sign the box if I buy one and send it to you with return postage?

"And 52 of something else." Priceless.

The blamo wonder deck can be shown on both sides. No angle problems. LMAO
Pick a card, any card at all. Just don't pick a RED spade.

I was one of the lucky purchasers of the Blammo deck & book combo.

Let me tell you, this an INGENIOUS innovation by one of the most creative magical minds in the solar system!

The ambitious card routine is worth the purchase price alone; make a signature disappear from the card 52 times, before knocking their socks off with the ultimate ambitious routine!

The ACAAN surpasses even that of David Berglas. (Some equivoque is required for the choice of card.)

Overall I give this 11/10.

Great job, Bill & Bob!!

Only two more weeks before our first "Real Secret" ships. Time does fly when you're having fun.

I have such a good feeling about this project!

Just found out a new version of the Blammo Miracle Deck is RS' first shipment! It has a different design on the back of the cards.

Nice one Bill and I also award the Ray Chelt Gold Star for mentioning Deadwood, possibly the best TV programme ever and **** and ***** any ********* that say different.

Sorry, if that was an example of how magic is being sold, I suspect there would be a whole lot LESS being sold. I got bored around the 2 minute mark and quit watching. Hey, but some liked it so it's probably just me.
