Bonus Routine with the Casino Kick!

Bonus Routine with the Casino Kick!

AWESOME! Mentalism

Inspector Lewis and Mystery of Paper Formats

I was watching a bizarre magician when I was a kid (well, about 20, but it feels like that now) and, as always, I threw myself into it.  I don't need to 'suspend my disbelief' - I love getting absorbed into a story, plot, book, movie or album, and if I'm paying attention, it's going to get 100% However, that doesn't mean that I can't be snapped out of it, and sometimes by the smallest details.  After explaining how he had found an ancient 'ritual' inked on a old piece of paper in his great grandfathers loft, the mage slowly...
