This dude jumped out and shouted <a href="http://milessunkest.vox.com/library/post/magic-tricks-revealed-by-the-purple-mentalist.html">magic tricks revealed</a>!<br /><br />Now, I had no idea what he meant by that, as I was thinking about something totally different at the time.<br /><br />The last time I heard somebody say "<a href="http://www.secretmagictricksrevealed.com">magic tricks revealed</a>," and all the incredibly curious mayhem that ensued after that. I certainly didn't want a repeat of that craziness.<br /><br />It goes without saying that I wanted to run far far way,and never look back.<br /><br />I grabbed the next taxi I and told him to drive. Before I knew it, I was safely back at home, and cracked open a cold one in front of my big screen TV.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1508460465741020861-383057245044442935?l=secretmagictricksrevealed.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Miles Sunkestnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1508460465741020861.post-41421909036179630492010-02-21T19:52:00.000-08:002010-02-21T20:01:28.677-08:00One of the most powerful things you can learn is magic tricks. Many people aren't aware of the massive social improvement you can realize once you learn a few simple tricks of illusion and up close trickery.<br /><br />For example, the other day I was at the park near my house. I was sipping on some green tea that I had just purchased from a local coffee house, and it turned out to be pretty good. I don't know if you'd ever had green tea before when you weren't expecting to, but it can be quite a nice surprise. I was going to get the new pumpkin mocha, but they were all out.<br /><br />So there I was, sitting there enjoying my flavored drink from the East, when this guy popped up out of nowhere and said he was going to show me some <a href="http://www.secretmagictricksrevealed.com">magic tricks revealed</a>. Now I wasn't quite sure what he was talking about, as he didn't really explain himself. He mumbling more than anything else.<br /><br />But he proceeded to produce some of the best card tricks that I'd ever seen, so impressive that I took some pictures. Before I knew it, a small crowd had gathered to witness this magician perform his impromptu magic. For some reason, they thought he and I were partners, but I had never learned magic tricks in my life before, so I wasn't quite sure how to handle things.<br /><br />When the show was over, if you can call it a show, people started asking me when he was performing next, and how they could get him at their party or wedding. Then I realized that they thought I was the guys agent, and that I was responsible for setting his schedule. I figured what the heck.<br /><br />Later on, about a week later, I had him booked for several shows, and both of us were making quite good money. And all because of a misunderstanding. He wanted to perform at a party for kids, but he got me instead. I wanted a pumpkin mocha, but got green tea instead. They wanted an agent to book this rising superstar, and got me instead.<br /><br />But all in all, these mistakes added up to some good money for me and my new friend, who said his name was Harry something. Nice guy, Harry.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1508460465741020861-4142190903617963049?l=secretmagictricksrevealed.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Miles Sunkestnoreply@blogger.com0
