@David – you mentioned two of my favorites . . . 693 and Copper Silver Thought. You’ve been Scarneck-i-tized . . . every time I read his stuff I just feel the smoothness and serenity and paradoxically the depth and complexity.

I’m going to have to print the book out and bind it so i can read it in my hands, i find it easier to learn that way personally.
The psychological presentations are nice, not exactly my style as yet, but there are definitely some things i can incorporate.
693 sounds interesting, now i need to get the cards to set that one up.
Copper Silver Thought is very nice, something i’ll definitely try out, to make use of my Copper Silver gimmick.

You’ll definitely find something . . . check out 693. I love that effect. Brad totally nailed me with that.

@Mike – Amen to that brother. Brad’s thoughts on magic and mentalism never cease to take me to a place of wonder and astonishment. He is a smart and clever and very connected (in the brain) guy. I’m glad that you enjoyed the book.

There are several great performance pieces (“Purposive Reverie”, “Toddler Pack”) and some very cool principles that can be developed into a great performance piece (“Monk”). Also, just some very nice insights into mentalism.
