      ..that picture clearly describes his negotiable affection.
      Either he cut her head off on a wooden slab, or vise versa.

    Ricky Jay. The man devoted his life to what he loved: the art of illusion, and bringing a child-like sense of wonder to his audiences. A master craftsman, historian, consumate professional, and trickster. His like shall not pass this way again.

    This interview and the sheer beauty and allure of that Library is what made me fall in love with the idea of having a library and a study of my own. In truth, today all that is needed is a computer, but there is a beauty and elegance to the Written word and the Physical and Historical Record of it. The smell of an old book, how it feels in the hand, the sounds it makes. It’s absolutely beautiful; sensations that cannot be replaced.

    I have scoured the internet for as many Ricky Jay items that I could find. My love for magic initially sprouted from two individuals…my Dad, who was a magician and owned a magic shop in Brick, NJ, and Ricky Jay, who was our favorite magician. Thank you so much for this! I never knew of it until today. A special treat. R.I.P. to both my Dad and Ricky Jay. Take care, and thanks again.

    "quiet, like silence, but not really silence. Like the sound of a page being turned in a book..."

      Sidenote: Vince is an incredible writer. I thought that Better Call Saul was gonna be a big spinoff flop but I fell in love with it. I find myself glued to Mike when he's onscreen. He has the most boring face but I love his character. Have you watched BB and/or BCS?

Even Raymond Cruz (Tuco) was from one of my favorite X-Files. When I heard about Better Call Saul, I also expected a lame spinoff show and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a standalone show with a plot and character arc all its own.
