Penn and Teller used to have a line in their show that they don?t make fun of Uri Geller for fear of being sued. They?d much rather make fun of ministers or preachers. In today?s Felix, the on-line student newspaper of Imperial College (U.K.), there is an interesting article about Mr. Geller and his history of either self-delusion or intentionally misrepresenting his powers. It traces his beginnings in Tel Aviv when he was touched by a mysterious orb of light and he later had spoons spontaneously curl in his hands. The article recounts his failure on the Johnny Carson Show and his many lawsuits. The article notes: ?More recently, Geller has hit the headlines for trying and failing to sue Nintendo for ?60 million over an evil occult Pokemon character called Ungeller, who had the special ability of bending spoons using the power of his mind.? There is a second article, just published, that purports to be an interview with Mr. Geller. To read the full article in Felix, click here.

Billboard Magazine hypes the band Slipknot by passing along this bit of trivia: ?Prior to that, the group was putting the finishing touches on its as-yet-untitled fourth studio album. Rick Rubin is producing the set, which was recorded in a Los Angeles mansion once owned and said to be haunted by magician Harry Houdini.? I don?t know that the quote has anything to do with magic but I can?t imagine how it is a factoid that would help the band launch their new J?germeister Music Tour. I can?t imagine why, but if you would like to see the Billboard article, click here. Marilyn Manson also used the Houdini Haunted Mansion to create music. I would include the link but the site is a little too obscene for the Inside Magic standards. For a list of the other haunted homes in LA, including Houdini?s, click here. Submit Your News
