From Telegram.com comes this article about tonight's benefit performance of magician and Genii columnist David Oliver.

Best wishes for a good show--what is the magical equivalent of the actors' motto: "Break a leg"?--and to Mr. Oliver and his family.

Behind Schedule
I am still not done writing about the October Genii Bash in Orlando. I have notes but no time just at the moment.
As a place holder, I offer this video that I came across in a Tweet from Mr. Teller.
Be amazed by Yann Frisch.
