How is it possible for someone to know weeks in advance what a newspaper’s top headline will be?
Illusionist mentalist Edward Stone will prove it, so he says.
Stone, who has travelled throughout North America performing for thousands during his 90-minute Seeing is Believing show, has written his predictions for the front-page headlines on the Sept. 28 editions of the Niagara Falls Review and Buffalo News.
The two predictions have been sealed inside a locked chest hanging from the roof of the Trailside Bar and Grill on Ridge Rd. in Ridgeway.

Use it or lose it
Two Canadian magic institutions shuttered their stores on the very same weekend. It sends shivers down my spine.
Again I urge you to support our local brick and mortar magic shops. It's the first place many kids get bitten by the magic bug. It's a place they can go for encouragement and coaching, by people in the know. A nurturing community is formed in a local shop, which can't be duplicated through the internet.
Don't have brick and mortar shop in your area? Consider supporting one through their online shops. (I direct your attention to two of the wonderful sponsors of this blog, Perfect Magic and
The Browser's Den of Magic!)
If you don't use it, you'll lose it.

Goodbye to Morrissey Magic -- the end of an era in Toronto
On Saturday August 24th, after 54 years in the industry, Morrissey Magic closed its doors for the very last time.
Founded by Herb Morrissey in 1959, Morrissey Magic's niche product was his "Morrissey Cups." His retail shop opened in 1964 with a second shop opening in Toronto in 1978. Some time later, the entire operation settled in Toronto.
Morrissey Magic was the first real magic shop I'd ever experienced. I can't tell you how many hours I've spent there. Or how many pay cheques. (The numbers are likely higher than I'd care to admit.) Being in their store always felt like home to me -- no matter the location. Their anniversary parties were the perfect combination of celebration, community and entertainment! (I will never forget the impromptu performance by Richard Lyn a few years back!) I feel fortunate that I was able to share my love of the store, and the people who ran it, with my family.
Thank you to Dan, Phoebe, Mike, Luiz, Richard and of course Herb, for the wonderful contributions you've made to my life. Dan and Phoebe, I wish you all the very best as you begin a new chapter in yours!
