Vacation Over.

Bliggins—No; I did not have a vacation, but my wife did and it is over.
About This Book
A practical manual reveals that popular stage mind-reading feats depend on muscle reading and involuntary physical cues rather than psychic forces. It gives step-by-step methods for locating hidden objects while blindfolded, selecting and handling a cooperative subject, sensing subtle resistance or leaning to guide movement, and applying the same cues to identify piano keys or letters on a board. The volume stresses practice, audience selection, and avoiding skeptical accomplices, offers performance tips and common failure explanations, and frames the techniques as teachable conjuring methods rather than supernatural phenomena.
