It almost seems unfair that I get to have my dreams come true twice, but here it is! My second time being featured in Ripley's Believe It Or Not! Hurrah!!!
 P.S. I know we all love to see products in The Latest and Greatest- so you can learn the same feat over here ( http://www.sendwonder.com/collections/all/products/scenic-52 ) via my eBook Scenic 52. Fun! P.P.S Featured in Ripley's not once, but twice?! I still can't believe it!!

But now it should be three times "Magician Jamie Grant was featured in Ripley's Believe it or not TWICE!"
Oh wait, that would be three times, oh my! James
Still with the Chinese circus

Interesting idea, though- I (personally) think humbleness is one of the worst qualities we pick up as adults. I actually believe that. When we're kids, we're so proud of our accomplishments, "Look at me, dad!" and then somewhere along the way we let ourselves be bullied into thinking that it's wrong to share our joy. That it's somehow uncool or unnecessary. Well, not me! I LOVE sharing joy. I love spreading it (hence why I'm a magician) and I love hearing about others' accomplishments just as much. It breaks my heart to think people don't share what's made them happy for fear of reprisal. So let's make this an open call! Has something awesome happened to any of you? If so, share it here! I'd love to hear it and congratulate you! Your pal, jamie

It is interesting.I live in Britain and it is not the thing to go around shouting about success or people will knock you off a perch. I wish I live in Canada like you, it sounds like fun. I will think about a accomplishment I made and post it here but hope my british friends don't see it.

Congrats, Jamie. Personally, I think you should be in Ripleys EVERY TIME you do one of those crazy bottles...but that's just my opinion.
On Bragging Rights: Go for it. If there's something solid behind your pride, you become a beacon and guide. If nothing's there but empty air...you wear out your welcome fast. The last best thing for me was attending a pretty valuable lecture last Friday from Penguin at Ran Pink's Sound Studio. Very nice.
We dance an invisible dance to music they cannot hear.

So, what's the story behind this one? Because the first story was, and still is, brilliant.

Hey Jamie, is this available for the Android.
"The New York Papers," Mark Twain once said,"have long known that no large question is ever really settled until I have been consulted; it is the way they feel about it, and they show it by always sending to me when they get uneasy. "

I think that Raj has never paid enough attention to Jamie's general behaviour and attitude, which is entirely delightful.
He is indeed, the kid in the sweet shop, and a jolly good thing too. I was brought up to self denigrate in the true traditions of English privilege. It's really just another form of vanity. Some people were dragged up, rather, and can be terribly rude on Internet forums. When somebody achieves this sort of thing, which is so utterly in keeping with their philosophy, why would anyone begrudge their joy? Has Raj never been to a launch party? Or a first night party? Or similar? It's okay to celebrate, Raj, even amongst the upper classes. |
