The Amazing Mr. J - Magician & Entertainer
IMAGINE if ⭐️YOU⭐️ literally (really) BECAME your hero!🥰😮❗️ A WEIRD, crazy story for you...in which this actually happened.😃Not just because beloved late mentalist/entertainer 'The Amazing Kreskin' (1935-2024) was a HUGE personal inspiration for my Magic career (Fun facts: 'The Amazing' Mr. J stage name is a nod to Kreskin, just as 'Mr. J' is a nod to my heroic Dad!).❤️Not just because Kreskin's super-positive, over-the-top, joy-filled presentation style influences my life perspective every day.🤗Not just because Kreskin always kept Christmas well, annually sending out THOUSANDS of custom-designed Christmas cards (at personal expense), to many he met during his nearly 60 years of radio, TV, and stage appearances (a tradition I try modestly to uphold each year, mailing 150 cards. When the postal strike resolves, you can bet yours will be on its way!)🎅🤶🎄In processing my personal hero's passing today at 89😪, plus in keeping in tune with Kreskin's upbeat essence, let me quickly recount "The Day I was Actually Mistaken for Kreskin"😋:Niagara Falls Comic Con, 2018. 'The Amazing Kreskin' was scheduled to appear for a 'celebrity meet-and-greet'.📷🤝🌠 Had previously met Kreskin twice, and thoroughly enjoyed each encounter. The legendary star even kindly gifted me his personal card, asking me to keep in touch. As a huge fan, this latest event was another chance to thank Kreskin in person, for his career inspiration. So, dressed in my traditional tux🤵‍♂ (in prep for the photo op), and carrying a giant 'Kreskin' advertising sign obtained following his Halifax appearance, I awaited in the general area of where the program said he would be at 2:00pm. Around 1:45pm, with no Kreskin yet (but also strangely no line forming), a large, young security guard stormed up to me: "Hey! We've been lookin' for you!" (?!) "Follow me!" continued the bellowing guard, quickly ushering me over to a table across the arena. (Had no idea what was happening, thought I was in trouble for something...) 😵‍💫😲🤔❓️"OK- Sit there! I'll be right back!" insisted the security officer.👮‍♂️ At this point, I noticed there was a large line behind a curtain, just beyond the table where the guard directed me to sit. It's now almost 2:00pm. (What's going on here?) As you may have guessed, with the guard being young, he saw yours truly dressed in a tux, carrying a large sign, and looking around...he thought I WAS actually the real Kreskin. Beyond the curtain, voices were heard: "He's here! He's here! I just saw a guard bring him in!" (!!)🫢Apparently, (I learned later), the REAL Kreskin had flight issues🛩✈️, and "likely couldn't make it", but informed he powers-that-be that he was "still going to try" and be there. In the meantime, someone from the event staff presented me with some bottled water and markers, saying with adulation🤩: "Glad you made it after all, Mr. Kreskin, Sir. We're ready to let folks in...is there anything else you need, Sir?" (!!!!)😅🤣❗️❗️At this point, the mistaken identity snafu dawned on me.🙃 (Was just feeling relieved I wasn't in trouble with the guard). ☺️Just as the first few people in line came in, I confessed..."Ummm, listen...you see...um...I'm...not actually...Kreskin..." to the now red-faced team.🫠😉In hindsight, maybe I should have played along? 😜Keeping my head down, maybe I could have signed a few autographs, and fooled some of the people in line, who WOULD know EXACTLY what Kreskin really looked like...(twice my age). 🤪"Gee, 'Kreskin'...you're looking younger today..." But then, what if I carried on the charade, and then the REAL Kreskin then showed up late...seeing me signing his name and playing him?!🤭As it happened, the Real McCoy wasn't able to make it. But it was a blast to get the Kreskin-treatment, if only for a few minutes.🥰It's sad to lose a hero.😪 But joyous to know our heroes live on, and (sometimes), we can become a version of them.🙂🦸‍♂️🦸‍♀️To quote one of Kreskin's famous TV sign-offs: "May you live 5 minutes longer than me. Just 5 minutes, no more, no less. For I intend to live FOREVER".🌠❤️YES. Thank you, ⭐️Kreskin⭐️. For all of The Amazing.🥰👍👍#Magic #Joy #Hero #TheAmazingKreskin ... See MoreSee Less

On this Remembrance Day, Dear Friends, let me humbly recommended to you the books📚 of retired Canadian General, and humanitarian activist, Roméo Dallaire.🫡Emotionally, you will find these very challenging reads. But also, infinitely important. You will gain heretofore unknown depths of perception, including deeper levels of empathy, gratitude, and resolve. These books will stick with you forever (as Gen. Dallaire's personal journey has with him).Ultimately, our ongoing honouring, talking with, and reading about our Vets🫡, serves as a profound realization of the precious frailty of Life, while enriching our collective consciousness and relationship with the whole of humanity.His latest book "The Peace" (2024), also offers some much needed HOPE. ⭐️Highest Possible Recommendation.⭐️Keep the Faith, Friends.❤️🇨🇦 ...
