Hocus Pocus Storms The Castle

Hard to believe it's already the first week in February; so much has already happened this year. The Swap Meet was a huge success and I appreciate all the positive comments that we have received. We are in the planning stages at the moment to do this again later in the year. Stay tuned to the website for more information about this. Here are a couple of emails I received from our guests:

Paul and Tony I am a bit late in saying this but just wanted to say thank you very much for an extraodinary time. The day was more than I ever thought it would be. The lectures were surperb. Meeting Mark Wilson and Nani as well as Shoot and the others was fantastic. I really enjoyed the day. Please do it again.

Thank you,

Hugh "Skip" Webb

Hello Paul,

I just read your wonderful writeup and viewed the great photos. You, Betty, Mike, Tony, and all of your talented staff deserve such congradulations for creating, and assembling a very wonderful get-together. You all set an atsmophere making everyone happy and comfortable.

Dealers, lecturers, customers all had a perfect day. I can't say enough good words about what you accomplished. Thank you again for inviting us, and letting us be a part of last weekend with you. You are our good friends,

Magically,

Nani Wilson



We are starting up our lecture series again. Our first offering will be Bob Sheets. Bob's lecture is Monday, February 5th at 7:00 P.M. You can check out all the details on the front of the website at http://www.hocus-pocus.com. We have also booked England's Mark Mason to lecture on Monday, April 16th. I hope to see you there for the first of many more lectures to come.



Mark & Nani Wilson have asked us to be the feature dealers at the Magic Castle Dealer's Day event on Sunday February 25th. I am really excted about this, and Mike, Tony, and I hope to see many of you there.





New products are coming in the door faster than ever. Speaking of new products, two really hot and exciting items to keep your eye on are Change Cap by Creative Magic and Interlace by Richard Sanders. These two products have my highest recommendation and are sure-fire winners! You can't lose with these two!

On the home front, Max has taken up yet another new interest. As I've told you before, he's a 100% animal-lover, and this time, his new love is lovebirds. Last weekend, we purchased two lovebirds, cage, and all the necessities, and Max has already gotten one of them trained to jump onto his hand and climb up to rest on his shoulder! The other one is a little more hesitant, but he's slowly but surely coming around... Good thing Max isn't interested in alligators.

Wow... All this and it's only February!! I can't wait to see what this new year brings. Thank you all for your continued support and friendship. We'll see you at the Castle Sunday February 25th!

Until next time,

Paul
