Happy Whatever Crap You Celebrate

I may not have much access to the Internet where I'm going (I'm going on a much deserved vacation!) so I'd like to wish everybody the following:

Happy Chanukah! Merry Christmas! Joyful Kwanzaa! Good Ramadan! Happy Festivus! Blessed Winter Solstice! And a happy new year!

I think that about covers it.

If you need a magic blog fix this week, check out Magic Interviews, a fantastic blog that gives you insight into the some of magic's greatest personalities! It's well worth your visit!

Blogging Crap

Holy crap! The last week at Pagliacci has, for me, been what magic blogging is all about. I've received tons of comments and e-mails about the last few posts, which has been just incredible. There are a few e-mails and comments I'd like to post about, but I have to get permission from the senders first.

Thanks everybody for reading the blog and participating! Here's just a quick outline of the posts I'm planning for this week:

- Thought Provokers - My collection of quotes to get you thinking. (Wait, hasn't somebody already tried a book of quotes to get people thinking? Nah, who would print a $50 book of quotes?)

- Fundamental Attribution Error - This will be a non-magic post, but one that will hopefully change your perception of yourself, your environment, and everyone around you. Yeah, the concept is that strong.

- Reviews - I'll tell you about some of the new products in the magic market - what to buy and what to stay the hell away from.

- "Douche of the Month" award - Sort of like a "Wine of the Month" or "Fruit of the Month" club, except instead of wine or fruits, you'll be getting douches. (I'm currently accepting nominations for the award - just send me an e-mail with his or her name and a brief reason why he or she's a magic douche.)

- Making you a funnier performer - No, I'm not suggesting removing the paper bag from your head. I have some concrete suggestions that can help in making you a funnier performer.

Crap, if I can get all of these posts up soon, this is going to be a historic week for Pagliacci, so make sure you check back often!

Beautiful Crap

What a glorious, glorious day! IT'S SNOWING!!!

I hope your magic is as magical as this snow!
