Full Disclosure Event
The End Is Near...
Well, not likely, but just in case, I'll be documenting every aspect of my life using the internet and my smart phone. Over the next 33 days (ending January 20th) I'll be posting a daily video, picture, energy/stress levels, any food consumed, locations visited, random thoughts, interviews, etc.

Updated Birthday Party Setlist for 2013!
My birthday parties start and end with the birthday child in order to give them the largest spotlight with the goal in mind of having everyone involved at some point during the show. The birthday child (and a few other party goers) get some very unique souvenirs from the effects they participated in.
My show has been updated for the new year, becoming even more visual, and even more Amazing! My goal was to be able to widen the age groups that are able to enjoy the show.
The new setlist features a dozen effects that even my closest friends haven't seen; including seven effects that weren't used in the 2011/12 shows!
Now's the perfect time to book a show!!!

"The Forks"
I like to compare what I do to other fields of entertainment, music, for instance. Sometimes I'll make a joke to my audience that they should "sing along if they know the words" before asking them to pick a card. It's a bit easier to be a fan of a musician. To start with, the things they perform have titles. A lot of what I do has a title too, it's just that people wouldn't be aware of it. Instead, it's up to my audience to make up the names of effects when they want to see me repeat something. I've heard "do the bouncy trick", "do that thing you did with the queens", but, most often I hear "do the forks."

No new video this Monday as a result of last week's video. If you haven't seen it yet, check it out, but be forewarned, it may be too much for some people.
Also keep in mind that the "2012 Prophecy" is underway as the NHL Playoffs move into the second round. More info available in this video from July of 2011

New Month 2012
Day 1: Began the new month in December for the first time (December 28th)
Day 2: Spammed my phone number across the internet (only got one phone call)
Day 3: Ate at an indoor Sonic restaurant
Day 4: My first New Year's celebration in Texas (as well as my first pumpkin pie shake.)
Day 5: My first January in Texas. I've now been in Texas every month, though my last February was in 2007. (I also ran into a construction cone on the freeway for the first time)
Day 6: Ate a deep fried Twinkie at an outdoor winter carnival. (This was a first for the Twinkie, winter carnival, and I believe it was even the first time I ever went on carnival rides.)
Day 7: Tried my best to eat an orange, just don't understand it still!
Week 2 - January 4th
Day 8: Learned about REcaptchas, never knew there was something to know about them! http://www.google.com/recaptcha/learnmore
Day 9: I don't know how to put this one, but I'll sum it up as "made an effort to branch out in Texas"
Day 10: Went to an all hockey sports bar in Houston. Very excited to see hockey with my eyes again! Forgot my wallet though!
Day 11: Walked out without paying
Day 12: Found out all my relative's birthdays
Day 13: Pretty much got asked to join a Ponzi scheme
Day 14: Text my electric company to get estimated bills sent to my phone. I'll be doing that quite frequently to keep my energy down!
Week 3 - January 11th
Day 15: Tracking my daily energy/stress levels at SparkPeople.com
Day 16: I've now seen every episode of The Office
Day 17: Did one of those "free offers" online
Day 18: Chose to get cash back after a debit card purchase
Day 19: Made a homemade Oreo cookie shake (from the Oreo package)
Day 20: Signed up for a one month free trial of Netflix (pretty much just so that I can finally see "I Love You Phillip Morris")
Day 21: Going to see my first Red Wing game from an away stadium
Week 4 - January 18th
Day 22: Bought and used an electric beard and mustache trimmer
Day 23: Uploaded a picture to tinypic.com... I feel awkward now, those pictures just stay there forever?!
Day 24: I was a Yes Man for a day. I said "yes" to every chance, opportunity, or demand. What ended up happening was I got sucked into watching this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ezeYJUz-84
Day 25: Deep fried my own cheese sticks!
Day 26: Took the toll road to work to avoid construction
Day 27: Interacted with some Occupiers at Occupy Houston (I definitely do not get the movement any more.)
Day 28: It was too wet and gray for the zoo. I bought some color safe bleach for my clothes and a webcam.
Week 5 - January 25th
Day 29: Went out and played pool. I lost 3 games to 1! I then lost foosball immediately after that.
Day 30: Was asked by this guy if he could remix one of my songs. I hadsta say "yes."
Day 31: Signing up for Skype (haven't done it yet, rough day yesterday)
Day 32: A new hangout
Day 33: Finding a Buffalo Wild Wings in Texas that plays the WWE pay per views. This is very important to me as it was such a huge and fun part of my routine back home.
Day 34: Battled an internet viral star and lost. I chugged a Coke Zero and my insides felt like they were going to burst. Shouldn't have chosen a diet pop.
Day 35: The FINAL day! I set up a livestream channel where I can host video content, live shows, and a webchat!
