JohnB Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 As some of the most basic magic uses fire, the "Dove Pans" for example, things can get hairy sometimes. Also there is "Flash Paper" which is awesome to play with. There is a big temptation to say "Wow, I wonder how big a fireball I can make with this stuff?" Many of the younger magicians need some time to learn that being a magician is very similar to being a stuntman. Each time you attempt an effect, you should plan exactly what the effect you hope to achieve is and exactly how you intend to achieve it. Once fire is introduced into the mix, there is no room for error. However sometimes the desire for fun overrides the need for meticulous planning. I've seen effects go incredibly wrong. Fortunately without injury but it came very close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1veedo Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Gargle olive oil and enter in a hot pepper eating contest. Get a stiff foamy ball or something and stick it in your armpit. Tell somebody you can control your pulse and tell them to fell it on your writst. Squeeze on the ball and they'll fell your pulse stop. Put tape on the bottom of an animal's foot and watch it dance! Tell your friends to stand with their side against a wall and lift their other leg. Microwave a phone book and proclaim you're the strongest man on earth. Tear the book and challange anybody else to do the same. For added effect, use a Bible (I got susspended for that one ;P). If it's still too hard to tear, before hand, fold the pages back and forth so you make a good crease and use the book cover to hide it. Oh, and yeah, magic is fun.

the tree Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 You can wear short skirts and be feminine and beautiful all day.*sigh* what you wear doesn't affect how beautiful you are, just how much you show it off.Things to do in an elevatorGo with a group of friends, say 30, make sure it's not big enough to cater for you, and make sure there is already half a dozen people in there. Here are three very easy things to do, whenever bored: Bake cookies. Eat cookies. Wash up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pHoToN_gUrL Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 1. think about an interesting topic, n then search it in goole, u'll be suprized by how much new info u'll find 2. listen to music, dance along if u wish 3. go out for walk 4. make some thing out of wat ever that u got available 5. my favourite: go out side, n find tiny insects, put them in a little container, bring them home, watch them up close, n then once they die, put them under the microscope n enjoy. U can keep the remains in a container for futur. I hav a large bee, a spider, a large ant, and another insect which i found on the class floor way back in grade 8(4 years ago), still in my box, they r dry but they look fresh. U can also name these lovely insects n make a diary for each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GutZ Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Don't forget about getting in an elevator' date=' and then pushing all the button so it stops at each floor. I've never done that, but I've been in an elevator where someone else did that. The elevator was full, and there were a lot of angry people in there.[/quote'] > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1veedo Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I remember in grade school we were on a field trip and somebody did that. I punched him in the face when we finally got off and he ran away screaming. But now we're practically best friends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred56 Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 There are lots of things that can be found in or around the average household that will be able to occupy an inquisitive young mind: inner tube rubber makes good strips of elastic stuff (with a good spring constant) for those home-made catapults (just don't use the tires off your parent's car, and watch when launching anything for windows and stuff). You can make pretty good darts out of bamboo and bits of cardboard. Then there's the garage: (power tools) the kitchen: (microwave, blender), the possibilities are seemingly all around. Just don't set the house on fire or bust too much stuff, or make a big mess (my dad always got pretty mad about the mess)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
