I logged in this AM thrilled to see the Café still alive, but active! Nice to see in the wake of Facebook drama...
In Sept 2020 Icontrated Covid-19 and was hospitalized. Due to the effects of what they call Long Covid I was forced to retire and re-prioritize my life and career.
"Big Daddy Cool" Johnny Dellarocca died in the hospital.
I've gone from 300 lbs to 235 lbs
Last night I made a return to the stage with a private corp show for Amazon.
I'm re-tooling all of my material and putting somethings in the grave with BDC. AND I guess it's time to get new promo shots made.
We'll see what the future has in store...

Very good to hear about your recovery and return to magic? Do you have a new name yet since the demise of BDC? Lynn

I've recently read your book "theatrical magic", pretty solid material,
did you ever find a method for the scorpion box?

I just saw this. Yes, I have a GREAT method that I added in the 2012 Omnibus edition on Lybrary and Amazon
