Magic Stories

Retractions and Corrections:
Oops! But Don’t Sue!

The mushrooms to be used in Mushroom Matrix
as published in Inside Magic Vol. 13, should not be eaten in the final
mouth load ? they are poisonous and could result in immediate
hemorrhaging and frothing resulting in a grotesque death.

Inside Magic sends its thoughts and wishes to the family of the 42
magicians that helped us learn about this typographical error. Inside
Magic denies, however, any liability for these horrible events.

Exxon Grand Opening

In the September, 2002 edition of Inside Magic, it was
reported that Harry Houdini would be appearing at grand opening of the
Lake Park, Florida Exxon.

Mr. Houdini actually passed away in 1926 (long before publication of the Inside Magic?s Mushroom Matrix) and the Exxon station was not celebrating a Grand Opening but just introducing its newest employee, Sandra Redman.

Inside Magic regrets the error. Ms. Redman has since left the employ of the Lake Park Exxon and is currently working at ?Fork of Fun Fondue.

Danny Spain – Fibber!

Danny Spain is not the originator of Zig-Zag
as reported in the October, 2002 edition of Inside Magic. Despite Mr.
Spain’s claims, he did not invent or even improve on the method. Fox
Television has informed Inside Magic that the effect was invented by
The Masked Magician.

The Masked Magician also invented the Thin-Model Sawing a Lady in Half as well as Cups and Balls. Inside Magic regrets the error.

Happier Days: Building Magic Home

The Magic Double-Wide has gone out of business as of
June 12th. Members will be refunded their membership fees minus any bar
tab. We knew the concept, modeled after the Hollywood Magic Castle
would face challenges in attracting members as well as acts. (Many of
the top names refused to appear until the venue had indoorrestrooms. See, Copperfield Says No to Outhouse, April, 2002 Magic News.)

It was great, while it lasted. It may have also been Magic’s last
chance to see Buddy and Bunny perform…

It was great, while it lasted. It may have also been Magic’s last
chance to see Buddy and Bunny perform their classic escape routine with
the now-famous Metamorphosis invented by the Masked Magician. We?ll have more about this great institution soon.

Did He Invent Tape?

Finally, Inside Magic has learned that the Masked
Magician is the inventor of more than just magic effects. According to
Fox Television, the Masked Magician will be exposing secrets of the 3M
Corporation.

The Masked Magician claims to have invented Post-It Notes as well as
Scotch Tape. 3M has denied the allegations and is fighting to keep Fox
from broadcasting the two-hour feature, “Why Is It So Sticky? A Masked
Magician Reveals All!”

3M Suggests in legal papers that Fox has run out of ideas for ruining
magic and now seeks to attack the “tape and temporary adhesive market.”

Fox would not respond to Inside Magic’s inquiries.
