Friends

Maybe the name of this blog should be changed to "From the Desk of Mike Giusti," as I've been taking it over for the past couple of weeks; Paul has called in sick today as he has a bit of a fever, but that won't stop us from keeping you abreast of what's going on here at Hocus Pocus.

In other news, right this very second, we are being inundated with calls and questions regarding our Mega Estate & Collectibles Event going on at:

www.hocus-pocus.com/static/estate.html

This has got to be the biggest estate and collectible sale we've ever had. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of products that are appearing and will be appearing within the next week on the above page. I plan to update the page daily (not only taking care of things that have sold but adding new items) at around 3:00 PM PST, so do yourself a favor and check it regularly. As the page states, there's literally something for everyone on this list, whether you perform close-up magic, children's magic, or stand-up magic!

Personally, I am not yet settled in my new place, but I AM moved in, and as for my sold house: "This house is clean." I personally need to thank Tony for being a true friend (I told you last week that a sign of a real friend is one who helps you move), and Tony went way beyond the call of duty, helping me for a total of two full days instead of one.

In the middle of the first day of moving, Tony and I decided to see a live concert of three of the most influential jazz virtuosos today: Stanley Clarke, Jean Luc Ponty, and Bela Fleck. Called "Trio," if you are a jazz fanatic and these three are coming to your town, do not pass go or collect $200.00. GO SEE THEM! It was a night of incredible music, phenomenal improvisation, and lots of humor.

With that, as Paul would say, "Until next time,"
