Can you become more cosmic?
Full discloser, I am a magician, a conjurer a prestidigitator and so on. I make magical things happen but always explain to my audiences that my performances are illusions, not reality. Funny thing is though, most of us live with illusions. Illusions about who we are, illusions of who we could become.
Depression and Anxiety
But that’s okay. Because it helps you hang on and unlike some of us, avoid not fall into the quicksand of depression and anxiety.
Gum Chewing
For some reason I get tense when people chew gum. Especially while talking and crunching it in their mouth at the same time. It probably comes from directing a myriad of actors, some of whom I’d have to have get rid of their Trident when acting.
Missed the Séance
Sadly, I missed the recent virtual and live Harry Houdini séance on the day of his death on October 31st from his gravesite in Queens, Houdini said that when he died he would come back if he could. I bring up Harry because he apparently was delusional, with many inflated ideas of who he was. But an avid reader of Houdini biographies starting at age 8, I learned how he was able to pick himself up despite setbacks of which there were many. He ultimately beat them all one at a time.
Harry Has Yet to Come Back from Beyond the Grave
These seances happen every year and I attend them when I can. They occur either here in Manhattan, where he lived when he was alive, or as mentioned in the borough of Queens where he is buried. I need to be more mindful when trying to conjure up Erik Weisz (his real name). I guess it is time to start chewing gum.
