Mordecai's Journal

At the request of compeer Bill Smyth, the “Historical Night” meeting has been postponed to next year to give Bill the time he needs to prepare a great event.  This month’s theme is The Great Tomsoni Lecture—without Johnnie Thompson.  Standing in for Johnnie are our own Angelo, Rick, Doc, and Dan.  Work along with them and learn some easy and great magic.  They have put together a lecture using effects from The Great Tomsoni & Co.’s “Magic Made Easy” video.  They will supply all the materials you will need.  The meeting is April 14 and starts at 7:30 PM.  Join the officers for dinner, please, at 6:00 PM.

Assembly Hosts Rob Cox Lecture

On March 31, the assembly held a lecture by England’s Rob Cox, who was accompanied by his fiancée Mandy Davis, and National President-Elect Bruce Kalver.  The lecture emphasized preparation, presentation, and humor.  Or should that be “humour?”
