June 2006

This month I attended the lecture of the amazing and amusing Gregory Wilson.  Greg and I had a good visit and I was reminded of why I like his magic so much.  He is a great thinker and loves to have fun with his audience.  It won’t be long I’m sure until we all see Greg’s magic on TV!  See the picture of Greg and I to the right.

The big news this month is the closing of Magical Gadgets in Frisco.  My business partner and I have no regrets.  We gave it a good college try.  Closing the shop will be a huge weight off of my shoulders.  For more than three years I have been juggling the duties of the shop and my own business Diamond Jim Productions. I am eager to finish writing 2 books I have been working on, hitting the road to lecture again and creating more magic products.  And now I’ll have more time to do that which I love most… performing!!!

The good news for those who frequented Magical Gadgets is that the shop will not disappear.  A new owner has bought the name and website and will open up a similar shop in Van Alstyne, Texas.
