Mordecai's Journal

We’re not just stringing you along (oh, yuck!) but this month’s theme is “Ropes and Ribbons.”  Well, maybe string, too.  Bring a trick that uses something that even looks like a rope and share it with your fellow magi.  Tie a string around your finger for January 8.  The meeting starts at 7:30 PM.  Join us for dinner, if you can, at 6:00 PM. See you there!

Pres. report: Dan Sclare thanked everyone who was involved in the Public Show on the 11th, and read us some e-mail about the event.

Sec’y’s report: accepted as printed.

Treas’ report: balance was reported as of 11/1.

G&W: SAMCON was this past weekend, the Bizarre Magick Gathering this weekend, Jonathan Jacques performs in West Hartford this Saturday.
In honor of Mel Bigley’s contribution to the club, Dan solicited a motion to confer Honorary Membership on him.7nbsp The motion passed unanimously.  Angelo Chirico spoke on Mel’s generosity.  Mel, who was outside for this, was brought back in, and Angelo presented Mel with the membership certificate and a check for $1250, which were the net proceeds from the Public Show.
Angelo and others got good video of the show.  He is going to create a DVD of 20-30 minutes which can be sold for a nominal fee ($10?).  Dave Edwards suggested making it an hour, and sell it for $15 at NEMCON.  There is already talk of doing another show in the spring.
