Thu, 08 May 2008 09:55:45 -0800 Thu, 08 May 2008 09:55:45 -0800 en-us http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss 60 http://ask.metafilter.com/90885/Can-You-Name-This-Sleight-of-Hand-Magician A couple years back I remember seeing a sleight of hand magic routine where the magician was sleeveless. He worked with cards and even produced some tall mixed drinks! He was a white guy with blond hair, perhaps from Sweden or Denmark? (That's just a guess.) He was touted on the program as the reigning sleight of hand champion. Can anyone tell me the name? I would like to find some video of his work. post:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.90885 Thu, 08 May 2008 08:33:30 -0800 jxpx777 magic http://ask.metafilter.com/90885/Can-You-Name-This-Sleight-of-Hand-Magician#1333802 <a href="http://www.shawnfarquhar.com/">Shawn Farquhar might be the one.</a> The "show" link has some video. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.90885-1333802 Thu, 08 May 2008 09:55:45 -0800 Fuzzy Skinner http://ask.metafilter.com/90885/Can-You-Name-This-Sleight-of-Hand-Magician#1333805 (Not sure about the sleevless thing, and I can't view any videos at work.) comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.90885-1333805 Thu, 08 May 2008 09:57:03 -0800 Fuzzy Skinner http://ask.metafilter.com/90885/Can-You-Name-This-Sleight-of-Hand-Magician#1333816 <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5kxUuO5JZo">Tommy Wonder</a>? <small>[<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Wonder">wiki</a>]</small> comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.90885-1333816 Thu, 08 May 2008 10:02:28 -0800 soundofsuburbia
