Appearances on TV's Masters of Illusion!
If you have been wondering where I've been these long long months, I've been busy working on my career. I've secured TV appearances on Masters of Illusion Monday nights at 8pm on My Network, among many other new and exciting projects!

Strait Jacket Escape:
So I've started to perform my strait jacket escape with a more difficult challenge added in. Now, ontop of being restrained in an actual working humaine restraint jacket I am also allowing two spectators to wrap 50 feet of thick chains around my body and pad lock me in. The result makes the escape even harder than it already is.

Allow me to be the first to say that no gaffs are used. The jacket is real, and I would have no problems even accepting a jacket brought of free choice by a spectator viewing my performance. That is if it were more common for people to own strait jackets. My personal philosaphy is that they should be given as wedding gifts, but thats just me.

So far, my record time for a normal strait jacket escape, no extra restraints: 3 minutes flat.

With the chains it increases the time to about 5 minutes. Considering that it took masters like Houdini litterly hours to get out of his, this is quite a remarkable feet!

Look for more to come as Halloween draws closer!

Experience:

Making and Keeping Friends: Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard, who was a well-sought-after lecturer and newspaper writer in the early 1900's, wrote, "In order to have friends, you must first be one."

The best friends in the world are the people who sincerely care about others and do nice things without expecting anything in return. They listen and understand. They are supportive and positive. Friends are people who can be trusted. People attract friends when they are honest and do nice things for others. Those who are dishonest and don't do nice things for others have difficulty making and keeping friends.

As you go through your day, remember the importance of being a friend to others without expecting anything in return. Other people will notice and want to do nice things for you as well.

Persistence: Mary Kay Ash
Mary Kay Ash once said, "One of the secrets of success is to refuse to let temporary setbacks defeat us."
The most successful people in history, the ones you remember and honor today, are those who didn't let anything stop them. They are the presidents, the inventors, and the pioneers. While Henry Ford was developing automobiles, people told him he was wasting his time. In fact he failed and ran out of money for his projects five times before he was successful. But he kept going and now look at how many cars are on the roads.

Pablo Casals, who was a cellist, was once asked why he continued practicing the cello six hours each day. He said, "because I think I'mmaking progress." He eventually became the greatest cellist who ever lived.

Dr. Suess's first childrens book was rejected by twenty-seven publishers before it was published. The twenty-eighth publisher sold six million copies of And to Think That I SAw It on Mulberry Street. And Dr. Suess went on to publish many more titles through his years.

No matter how discouraged you become, never let a failure or a problem stop you. Keep going. You will only succeed if you refuse to give up. Figure out what you want to do and keep up the effort until you succeed.
