News from the World of Magic>
Help Wanted Issue
August 27, 2010
Magic is in the air, and we're trying our best to keep you informed, but since our editorial staff consists of a random number of monkeys fighting over a single keyboard (Actually it's more like a single key. They all want to press the "J".) we tend to have a more unusual perspective than your typical newspaper.
Hi, I'm Paul from Wunderground Magic, Inc. with breaking news on a tight deadline. Today's hot story just off the magic newswire:
Local magician Chris Clark {stop}
Needs votes for amazing trick. {stop}
Today only {stop}
Regis & Kelly website {stop}
Wild & Wacky contest {stop}
Chris Clark's Harmonica Bagpipes trick.{stop}
Vote! {stop}
I'm not sure what it means either, but the words seemed to be cut out of a magazine and included a ransom demand for $1.47 I suggest you vote because a "harmonica bagpipe" player just may be the only thing saving metro Detroit from total economic collapse.

Performers Wanted for Wunderground's World of Wunders
We're shooting two pilot episodes for a local television series. Of course, the concept isn't fully formed, but then again when has that ever stopped us? I'm thinking of doing something related to (wait for it) ... magic but we could expand it to be a variety show featuring talented artists we've dug up from our dungeons.
The reason you're reading this (assuming you're still reading and haven't skipped to the end where I give away free candy) is that we're looking for guest performers to be featured on the show. If you're interested send me a note. Not only can you get in on the ground floor of concept creation - you'll be able to start even lower than that.
