A common phrase used by impressed laymen to a good magician is a sheepish "I will never play cards with you".

How does one be be proficient enough in card magic to be credited with such awestruck respect? In essence, a tall building requires a strong foundation and a doctor needs  good knowledge about medicine.

Another gathering; another resounding success! To think that some our SMC gatherings started with just 6 people early this year after the Chalet of December 06. It's truly a blessing to see so many of you guys showing up and showing your support! This event is great because of you guys!

A big word of thanks go out to all the many familiar faces returning from the previous meetings - I hope you guys have found a nice home with us. I always enjoy seeing a familiar face! biggrin.gif
Adrian was a great photographer - he has captured the essence of the day with his HUGE camera and even HUGE-R lens! He'll have the photos posted in no time at all man - I know he's got quite a number of mug shots.

Just some of our highlights -

1) ALL RETURNING SMCians - you guys made our effort worth it. It takes time and resources to organise any meeting; however small. The number of people who showed up from the previous gatherings makes it worth every bit! smile.gif

2) More exclusive details of the upcoming Ledgerdemain - A contest of magic were released to the people at the gathering. Many signed up on the spot - some were 'coaxed' by me. HAHAHA. But trust me guys - you will NOT regret it! It's only just about the BIGGEST magic event in 2007! The details will be made official on the Forums and website soon - attending gatherings has priviledges!

3) Bob Chua and Enrico Varella - They're always a delight to have at ANY meeting. It's not hard to find them - just follow the path of stunned faces.

4) We had a number of NEW members join us - notably Ethan from a super hush-hush company (MUAHAHA); just kidding Ethan. It's good to have you with us man! Ming Swee, a great 15 year old whom I thought was 12... tongue.gif You really look young man - it's a compliment!

5) BERNARD aka MagicDow TURNED UP! Buy 4D now! This guy turns up ONCE in an Eternity. It almost seems like he's the Captain of the Flying Dutchman - he can only set foot on land once in 10 years.

It was an exciting day of entertainment and extreme sessioning. I hope the next coming event will continue to be just as fruitful!

4) Axl (muscleaxl) - thanks for holding the fort till I got in pal!
5) Zian (chanzian) - LOL future mod? LOL
