Howdy friends. The N.R.A. is having its annual meeting in Houston this week along with the Offshore Technology Conference. These groups are expected to bring in over 150,000 people. Surely there are some magicians in one of those groups. You are certainly welcome to join us for any of our activities. This week is our monthly joint H.A.O.M. and S.A.M. Assembly #19 meeting. Plus our club is excited about getting to see a sneak peek at the upcoming Hollywood film, "Now You See Me". There is also some important info on an upcoming lecture by Ice McDonald and more in this week's update...that I doubt if any actually reads. If you do, then please drop me a note at Scott@ScottWells.com to let me know that there are people out there reading this blog. I have yet to receive any comment, written or spoken, since I have revived this weekly column five months ago.

Howdy friends, and Happy Tax Day. For those of us in the U.S., tomorrow (April 15th) is when federal and state taxes need to be filed. This coming weekend we will see the Annual Magic Auction in Austin. It is about a three hour drive up from Houston and it always promises trash and treasures, depending upon your perspective, or that of your spouse. Also, Williams' Magic Company will have its touring magic shop in Houston tomorrow (Monday) evening. Plus Walter "Zaney" Blaney gives  us his weekly update on what he finds fascinating. All that and more this week in and around Houston.
