What a bunch of crap faces, right?

You know what Sam... I got the same response ELSEWHERE. Some people wanted me to stay on their forums. I got emails asking me to come back. But it was like I was talking to myself. I don't have to log on to my computer to do that, for pete's sake!
I actually went out of my way to welcome the newbies because I remember the warm welcome I got here, way back when. LOL! No really you were a part of that, Sam. Thanks. I think it makes a difference. Do you remember the scene in Animal House where they segregate the cool pledges from the dredges? That what it reminds me of.
Anyways when I first started going through the intros it was kind of a chore... Then I started having fun with it, being a clown, then the laugh riot broke out. Since then I have been pushing it to see what i can get away with. LOL

Actually its funny that you said that as I have three books that I'd love to be able to read. One is in Spanish and the other two are in French. They are magic books and the pictures and diagrams look awesome! The format of the Spanish book looks better then any English magic book I have ever seen and it is 550 pages! It reminds me of Mark Wilson's book on magic, but again, I like the lay out better.
Also when I was younger I spent a lot of time isolated in a hospital bed... Books were my best friend, and I would read two or three book a day. Which is pretty wild when you consider I didn't learn I was dyslexic till after high school! I could read far above my age group BUT I still get caught to this day saying words wrong because I had read them long before I heard them spoken. Fortunately it doesn't happen very often any more but I TOTALLY understand the problem.
Finally why are you down on magic? It sounds to me you are living the dream - Making money doing what you love. I think you should go get a job working in a cannery or something for a week or two. That will straighten you out. LOL
