  1. A quotation from Arthur Conan Doyle

    I’m not going to tell you much more of the case, Doctor. You know a conjurer gets no credit once he has explained his trick; and if I show you too much of my method of working, you will come to the conclusion that I am a very ordinary individual after all.

    Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) British writer and physician
    Story (1886-04), “A Study in Scarlet,” Part 1, ch. 4 [Holmes], Beeton’s Christmas Annual, Vol. 28 (1887-11-21)

  6. Ugh. Should have stopped working on these math games at version 10.

    Some 26 versions later, and they are no longer working.

  8. I read this book about magic tricks by Wendy Rydell and George Gilbert as a teenager. It also a in-depth history of magic - from the occult to the stage.

    This book changed my life and stirred my interest in the humanities.
